I flip and ask the away team to call.

With your pre match instructions less is more. Do not talk your sef into a corner. I say look guys you have been playing long enough to know what right and whats wrong. If yu want to have a game of football thats great but if you just want to kick each other Im not going to let that happen. Work...

Just email your county FA to do it with all the details. Thats what I do when I do these games as it is easier to find a living stegasarous than find these teams on WGS

So thats why you got all those tough games. Go ahead make my day

Or say if you do not remove it you are not going to play. Im sure the player will suddenly be able to take it off when he thinks he cant be Zidane that Sunday morning.

Had a yellow for a reckless tackle which crippled the offender and had to leave the field of play.

Just wear gloves. No big deal for us southern softies. The hard northeners disagree #southernsoftyrefs

try doing your cautions when it is a less busy time.

Use your cards or they never learn. Sent off a 14 year old today for kicking out. i was told from the sidelines you cant do that its kids football.

If in doubt on goalkicks or corner not sure go defensive.

Had a few call offs from the regular pitches which cant handle rain, but only one where the pitch was half under water, that Saturday before xmas. No grass games happened that weekend in my area

Kids playing with a qualified ref or kids playing with a coach or a parent. No brainer for me espeicially as a ref you will naturally be stricter to the team you have affiliation too, so all of their decisions will have to be nailed on to be given

and back to the whistling advice

Practise your whistle blowing so it is nice and strong

once bitten twice shy. Had an issue club paid me half by bacs kept on delaying and I never got the other half. Next time I will report it straight away

jelly babies

i think this is called man city conspiracy:):):). I thought it was a bit of a rick from the ref but Liverpool won so no harm done and a good learning point of what not to do. Sunday morning there would be some very angry players letting you know what they thought about that. YNWA

He did bring out the worst in some people, it was not what he said but sometimes how he said it was the issue. The threads could sometimes get very interesting and then lock down occured!

I think the point is the card comes out and off we go to WGS. At youth level I think there is a reluctence to use cards not from me but I know one youth ref who has been reffing for 8 years and has never used his red.

Have you thought it is your reffing which means your games are uneventful? I say this as a compliment
