    Couple of odd ones today

    I have come to the conclusion that some players are just a bit mentally simple who, because know the "rules" better than everyone else, will question every decision. On saturday, I had the shout "you are only giving it because they called for it", my response "actually I am giving it because...

    Couple of odd ones today

    Tough game today with a number of players being vocal about some of the decisions made No goal Orange keeper fumbles the ball and the ball squirms toward goal, orange defender gets back and clears but yellows appealing for a goal, oranges appealing for no goal, CAR not in line so ignored his...

    Catch 22 97th minute

    Ive had one of these Catch 22 situations before. Red team striker runs towards goal with the ball and is in/on the edge of the area, white team defender tackles from behind and misses the ball, 100% banker of a foul so i immediately signal for a penalty. CAR flag up so i walk over and ask "are...

    Eeek, I have been given my first middle with NAR

    Sorry he's a Level 3 and is the leagues referee secretary. He is aware I am looking to get on the promotion track this season and I have asked if he could come and watch some of my games to point me in the right direction so to speak so I expect him coming down as a NAR kills two birds with one...

    You need to get in a better position

    I literally just remembered something that happened in this game, one chap who had been booked for dissent after telling me "the standard of refereeing is really bad" then asked me where I got my "refereeing licence!"

    Open Age Absolute Disaster

    If its any consolation my first game was thoroughly enjoyable despite having to award a penalty and show 2 red cards for S1. Next few games went well and I thought I had this refereeing business cracked. Then, boom, a "nightmare" weekend of games that left me feeling demotivated and ready to...

    You need to get in a better position

    Game yesterday Whites v Reds, red GK punts ball upfield its flicked on and I am sprinting like Usain Bolt to keep up. Ball lands in Whites penalty area at this point I am around 20 yards from goal. Reds player controls the ball and shoots amid cries of "hand ball ref", luckily no goal was...

    First Sunday Game, Red Card for the GK

    Hi Folks Just after some advice regarding a sending off which I need to submit via WGS 40th Minute, whites striker shoots at goal, GK fumbles it hits his knee and bounces upwards. GK gets to feet as Whites striker runs towards ball. White striker wins ball and heads towards goal, moments...

    Game today left me wondering what I did wrong

    @Tealeaf - this wasn't a game where the threat of physical violence towards the referee or each other was ever going to materialise and at 6'4 and around 18st its very rare that I do feel at risk or threatened. Most of the players were fine but there were a couple on each team who are clearly...
