It wasn't the flags fault it was the tool using it! :rolleyes:

My only regret in football comes from not binning a bigot...female says to another after being nutmugged...'you won't do that again you dyke bxxtard', didn't believe I heard it correct allowed play to go on as last few minutes and team heading towards goal. At end of game I went across and said...

Ciley, still made headlines in some papers, ok not a tv show about it! A homophobic or racist statement is still a homophobic or racist statement no matter who it is aimed at? If I used the n word in relation to one of my white friends it is none the less offensive?

Have to explain the 'he said leave it, ref, you can't say that' about 20 times a season. Rarely ever have to actually give a free kick for it as generally no infringement takes place, however did have a stern word with a few centre backs last year as a player was about to take a penalty they...

So we all agree that no matter what the sexual preference of the official it shouldn't diminish his ability to officiate. We also all agree that in today's modern society that there is still an issue with how people are treated because of their sexual preference, race or colour? As demonstrated...

Would agree with James Long, hate treadmills as they don't actually give you proper running conditions, wind rain, heat etc better to find a local track and use it if possible if not a local pitch and use it if you can do it on a soft/heavy surface then the track will be no problems!

Ukcolt not sure mine would be much use as we use a different test over here to the one used in England, however here it is - Sunday morning 5k recovery run (30 mins max) Monday Evening 5k 70% run (22 mins) 1k cool down Tuesday Evening 1hr weights Wednesday 5-10k at 5.30 pace Thursday 1-2k swim...

Irrelevant question in relation to the article tbf.....he should be commended for his actions and taking the brave step to come out.

Brilliant achievement, hard work pays off and would be interested in your responses to above!

Eh football...specifically refereeing related matters? ;)

Best piece of advise is don't...you base your decisions on a split second reaction...analysing them afterwards will only have you questioning every decisions and then taking it back out onto the pitch to and when you need to you will be second guessing and wondering about angles etc make the...

A strike with the foreman is - a strike with the forearm it is a clear deliberate act of violent contact end of story! No varying degrees its a strike with the forearm!

How and under what LOTG is a forearm smash a caution? Can someone please explain the decision, the VAR has been a disaster and should have been tested away form a high profile tournament out iron out any problems.

Will he learn from it?

Left foot of the defender tries to nick the ball but hits the player, that's what I see and is MHO

Whaaaaattttttt? You mean the last man isn't an argument??? :rolleyes::mute:

How do you measure fitness? I have never continually run for 12 minutes in a game as the pace varies significantly and stoppages occur regularly? So, how do you measure what is an accurate measurement of fitness? In Northern Ireland we do the FIFA Assistant tests are they better than the FA's...

I see a referee sprinting to get into a great position to make the call, interesting that no defending players were busting a gut to get back...I also see a player heading towards goal with an obvious chance of scoring and a defender making a genuine attempt to knick the ball. Penalty and yellow!

If we take the wording as it is then if the keeper touches the ball and a player challenges him then it's a foul no more 50-50s as if the keeper touches it he is in control end of debate! You could suggest that a lot of the LOTG is badly worded!

Eh..can I point out that between the ball leaving the keepers hand and him kicking it, it is also considered to be in his/her control, if the keeper had hand/finger on ball and was touching any other surface ground or body I would suggest you were wrong (within the law) however only you will...
