Apparently proactive refereeing is frowned upon. If you leave the ball to enter the goal, one team will complain. If you catch it mid air no team will complain. Why go looking for trouble?? It'll find you anyway

If This happens to me no way am I allowing the goal... Or the ball to cross the line for that matter. I'm getting my arse into gear and catching the ball as it falls. No point causing aggro for yourself when it's easily avoidable

Joining the police in August so aiming to be in the best possible condition in time for that!!

Showing a yellow card is irrelevant, it's used purely as a communication tool to tell everyone w caution has been given... I probs my wouldn't actually show the card, but a referee is entitled to

On for me... But a rubbish angle

First of all I'd be squeezing in and making sure everyone (especially the defender) knows I've seen it, and telling them to play on... If the second push is a little fanny pathetic thing then I'd be shouting at them both to 'leave it alone' or stopping play to award a defensive free kick if I...

You got any tips for those of us looking to brown nose it to the top then dan?? :rolleyes:

Was on a county cup final last month, and referee sent off one of the players (stonewall I might add)... Uproar from the crowd (right behind me, and the county officials). Loads of abuse for the last 10 minutes (young ref did really well to ignore the comments or he's hard of hearing), then as...

No NARs on a final?!

Either go with the early flag, preventing the goal from ever occurring and acknowledge that the flag was possibly early (most players will respect this), or overrule the flag and allow the goal. Personally I'd be inclined to go with the early flag (don't shoot me)

I'm part of the academy up here in Westmorland (assume it's the same thing)... We sign up to attend all development meetings, and academy meetings unless we have good excuse... Requires more commitment but is well worth it!! Gets your name known more around the county and opens up opportunities...

Can we all agree that the correct thing to do is to bend the laws in order to suit the defending team here... Ie free kick is crap play one, free kick is good call it back and order a retake (possibly a YC too)??

Is the ball not in play when it is touched and moves?? Therefore it is in play when he touched it with his hand and it moves so handball is possible... I would be stopping the game however when he handles it and telling him to put it down... No need for a caution

Or you could do what a 4th man did up my end... Connect with the ball perfectly, only for it to skim the away managers head... He was not a happy bunny

Grab a Lino and make him do it... Shouting and flagging are your only option k think (ps shout steve or whoever it is not ref)

2 cup middles (1 senior 1 u16) 1 senior league middle 1 u16 league middle Think that's it

Just ask the oppo physio to take up the reins

Pretty sure that's where they're supposed to be... The other side interfered with the diagonal running path of the referee

"Congratulations Mr Oyston, you have won Chairman of the year for your outstanding work within the local community"

Come on Dan, dish the dirt!! Possibly in its own thread...
