I need they do... U14 Saturday, nothing game for 50 mins and then within 10 mins I've 2 reds and 2 yellows....

Don't half make things confusing do they? 😁

Same. I has a ladies game in pouring rain one Sunday, 8 or 9-0 and both sides asking for an early finish! Blew on 90' 0s 😁

Ok cheers

Was at the end of the game so he's allowed on the pitch. I don't think it's worth reporting but could do an extraordinary report in case anything further kicks off

Yep 2 good decisions. Agree with commentator, it was a needless challenge

TBH I was just amused by his comments and not at all upset which probably explains my delayed thinking about cards. His team were fine all game and nonplussed as to his comments.

Yes I agree and thought as I walked back to the car I should have given a yellow card.

I tend to say "good enough, play on"... It's true though, so many "foul throw" and "in the back ref" shouts over the last few weeks, youth and adult, none of which are actually foul throws or a shove in the back!

I said to him I was expecting a match coach session but he was adamant it was an observation. Very experienced observer too (L3 ref) so will have to wait and see.

That's what I thought but he said it's a full observation 🤔 We will find out!

I had my 1st 7-6 observation yesterday, I thought it was a coaching visit but its a full observation. Didn't go too well as got shin splints half way through and was a bit off my normal standard, let an obvious yellow go and didn't deal with some persistent fouling. Let's see what the report...
