    Promotion criteria level 5 to 4

    I get the feeling that the FA now have about the right number of Level 4s. Last season, things were a lot calmer for me on the line. 2-3 lines a month towards the end. In addition, they have tightened up the demotion criteria for L4. It's now possible to be demoted if you are DE or ED in...

    Can you tell us a bit more about what you mean by 'burn more' ?

    Badges.

    IMHO, one badge looks cleaner on the shirt. I go with EITHER the FAMOA or county badge on my left chest pocket. Therefore two shirts!

    Player commits a careless tackle...

    Also consider stepped approach - is it worth getting the captain in? Like with many things, situational.

    Assessors

    "Play on" is a very dangerous thing to say as an AR. For potential foul situations in your area of credibility, you want something neutral like "Careful" if they are getting close to offending. Then either you can flag it or the referee can decide to give the decision, based on the exact...

    2 Friendlies and 2 reds!

    Pre-season: Manage it as you see fit, considering how things go on the day. However, NEVER agree to anything like this with the teams, as you are making a rod for your own back. I lead with "Cards count, and they will go in".

    Foul throw awarded in MLS

    My criteria tends to be that a throw has to make me laugh before I give it the other way.

    Keeper Handling Infrigements

    Unless this sort of handling offence is so, so, so, so obvious that there isn't a doubt in your mind, DON'T GIVE IT.

    Mid season change to L5-4 promotion criteria

    10 middles or 10 lines?

    Look after your ARs

    That is incredibly high.

    Fitness plan help needed!

    As touched on above, the guidance most would point to on here or advise might well not be appropriate for a young teenager. First of all though, well done on actually caring about this stuff! Best bet would be to chat to your RDO at your county (chances are they have someone designated for...

    Rescinding Cards

    What a mess! Two possibilities here: 1. The referee changed his mind (for whatever reason), therefore the cards resulting in the dismissals never actually happened. In this case, although it doesn't look good, the result should stand as the referee has technically been correct in Law. 2. The...

    whole game system friendly matches

    I just gave this a whirl to log a pre-season friendly from earlier in the month (no cautions etc). It worked okay. The key is to be patient when you enter a fragment of the team name for it to search on. e.g. type 'Manches' then wait while the pointer spins round for about 5 seconds, then it...

    Which fox 40

    Big fan of the Fox Eclipse. Like the 40, but more ergonomic. The Sonik Blast is awful, AWFUL and sounds like a train whistle.

    Pre-season

    Great weather for it on Saturday. Supply v Contrib team on 4G. Competitive and a good initial run-out. I've been working a lot on fitness during the off-season and knocked out the fitness test last month. So I'm happy that fitness-wise I did not feel tested other than having to be aware of...
