Don't quote me on it but I believe it's the Loughborough test. We do it over 15 metres.

Police Officer.

I have to do it for my job every year. My role requires me to reach level 10.5. Each year I think I'll keep going to see how far I can get and each year I stop at 10.5!! Not a bad level for a 49 year old though:)

As Darren says, our CFA suggests a fitness "assessment" to give you an idea of where you are. That said, the fitness assessment for 7-6 is 2200m. If you are being assessed, why set a level you are expected to achieve?

Did my 7-6 fitness test on Friday. I was about 50m short of 2600 in 12 minutes, so well chuffed with that. Ran my two 50m in 6 secs and 7 secs. Just a bit more training and I should reach the 2600 next time.

Whatever he gets it must be for all football. It really should be a life ban but FIFA don't have the power. It really does need Liverpool to sack him and claim back some money from him for breach of contract. Disgusting behaviour.

Mike, as a gentleman of a certain age (as put to me by a cheeky bugger of a physiotherapist), I find your position inspiring. I am going 7-6 this season and it is good to see that a ref slightly older than me is more than able to make the grade to level 4. Certainly shows me that there is...

"And so am I. If you voice yours again, in my opinion, you'll be walking."

Life ban? Not long enough if you ask me. They should ban his kids and grandkids.:devil:

:rolleyes: I was being ironic. Hence the reference to birds. Despite what you ladies believe some of us blokes know how to use an iron.

Ugh. (sticks fingers down throat). The FA would be so proud!!:rolleyes:

Ryan. Don't get carried away, it's not likely to happen too often.;) I would say that it all depends on whether you find it offensive etc or perceive that someone would. As I said earlier, make it personal and/or public and you are likely to walk. E.g. "You're having a laugh you blind...

No. There is nothing in the laws that say this. If you suspect that a player has "sustained" an injury purely to get out of taking a penalty and thereby giving their team a better chance by getting someone to take their second earlier, there is nothing you can do about it. Apart from report...

I know where you are coming from on this, but there's swearing as part of "everyday language" - "no f*cking chance" and minor insults - "go to specsavers" but IMHO coupling the two together and adding a personal insult (dick) I would call this direct OFFINABUS and walk him. We all have a...

Ooooh. Interesting one. No foul-throw is committed until the ball enters play, otherwise it wouldn't be a "foul". A player can walk where he likes and lift up as many feet as he wants, but no offence is committed until the ball enters play. At that point the throw is foul. If that is the...

As identified by Haywain, for the purposes of officiating at a match, we are in the workplace. Calling a colleague a "hot chick" could be determined to be undermining them. There is absolutely no excuse for such sexist language. Birds don't like it! :(

I just got picked up on this in an assessment. I played advantage but did not call "advantage" before calling the play back to give a foul. I always thought to wait a second or two before blowing or "advantage" but the assessor, he say no. I suppose it stops the old "come on ref, foul ref...

I have actually penalised both. Player taking the Mick with his throw. Loud shouts from me to take it level with me. Player ignores me and throws. I blow whistle and penalise the throw. Opposition player tries to take it from where the first throw should have been taken. Loud shouts from...

It all comes down to whether you find the comments offensive, etc. You might think " How much you being paid?" insulting but someone else might brush it off. If you are insulted, send em off. No doubt you will be criticised but each persons threshold is different. If you think a comment is...
