I hate to be a killjoy but it wasnt a red card, it was a yellow.... He was already on a yellow so this second made it red, not the tug on the shirt.

Because the laws back me up, if I'd have disallowed it and Gibraltar had a massive go, I wouldnt have a leg to stand on as the laws wouldnt be in my favour

Id say its a goal, all players inside their own half, kick off taken correctly, does it matter where the players are? Its their own fault!

Ah fair play, just a thought, I dont have my loaf with me at the moment :P Big thanks to this thread though, im an AR at a national tournament this weekend so this will help big time :P i just hope this doesnt happen :P

This could be a stupid point but what the hell... Being in an offside position isnt an offence within itself so the offence occurs when he interferes with play, so is it not placed where he interferes since thats the offence? When there arent ARs you can get away with positioning as the...

I am a keeper as it goes, i played at academy level and at any level if someone scored after the whistle went id just think 'ah well doesnt count does it so lets just get back to it'

Its hardly antagonising the keeper as it doesnt exactly count, and it doesnt waste time, the ball is about 5 yards from where the free kick is before Mason is even in the picture, it did not delay the restart.

Hes a prolific goalscorer and he was 12 yards out with an open net, it was always going to be a certain goal disallowed anyway, its not even like he lashes it into the net in anger either, he sidefoots it calmly, again, if he lashed it in anger then ok i can see arguement for dissent, but as i...

I get what your saying of it could be construed as dissent but it happens a lot so for MC purposes im not going to caution, BUT its not delaying restart at all as it takes Lee Mason around 60 seconds to get down the pitch, issue the card and get underway, the 5 second thud of the ball to the net...

Any time i hear that I say, i will do that, just playing football does not involve shouting at me, so provided you 'just play football' then im willing to go with it

Watching this MLS game on SS5, in the 85th minute the referee (Sorin Stoica) ordered a retake of a goal kick for a moving (not bouncing though) ball. Now i dont normally give those as theres nothing in the LotG that says it must be stationary. Views?

Would you really caution for kicking the ball into the net? Think if everytime the whistle goes for offside for example, how many times do players finish the job anyway? Would you book for that even though the whistle has gone? I for one wouldnt, far too many caution report forms to fill in...

Im a Bournemouth fan yes, but, i would never give this as a foul, even at the opposite end, the GK kicks the ball into him, whats wrong with stepping to one side for the GK? If Wilson moves with him then ok hes attempting to block it, Wilson has every right to be there, the GK kicks it at...

But they expect us to be Premier League standard referees though... :/

http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/31895461 No words can describe how much I find that terrible and disgusting and an act from hell.

Head up man, I had a game similar but I suspended as only 90 secs left, after the 2 dismissed players went home, I had a conflab with both sets of players and said, 90 secs left, 2-1, do you want to carry on? If yes then no revenge attacks, no fighting, no swearing, the first person to do it...

Never a red for me, studs not facing the leg, hes late yes, its not 2 footed, its not a lunge, its reckless at most. Im not listening to commentary, i dont know who is commentating tbh, i never listen to commentary, got some nice 80s choons on instead XD

Not red for me, Chelsea players influenced the decision IMO

Football is not a non contact sport, a slight tug on the wrist does NOT give you the correct force to throw Di Maria over in the way that he did, he simulated a foul, thats the yellow (correct yellow). If your watch got snagged as you walked past a door handle say which thus gives you a slight...
