    Rooney Red Card

    Seriously, yellow for lashing out and kicking a player.

    Leic. C v Man U - Rafael penalty

    Ah my fellow tottenham fans, oh how we rejoice in the merry go round of our game. Didn't watch the game but was meant to be one of worst performances ever at the lane. I miss the days of Bale, Modric and Van Da Vaart lighting up the game. Even despite Bill's famous words, I cannot see what...

    "He was going away from goal ref"

    That's a new one on me, but another example of why our job is made so difficult when players have so little concept of the laws that govern the sport they love. I had a manager going crazy because one of the opposition were apparently offside despite being four yards in his own half.

    Typical!

    I suspect Harry's answer to be the right one, had the ball gone straight to the other striker then maybe different.

    Obstructing the ball

    You could have possibly gone either way, player on the floor could be deemed to be preventing play by being "unable" to get off the ball and the guy could have been deemed to have been kicking him. I will say that I have found it hard to see how a player can't get off a ball, they can move they...

    So the good old offside again.

    Ben, I very much agree with you on the moving towards the player part but consider this, the LOTG clarify interfering with an opponent as above but moving towards the player isn't mentioned. As mentioned before it is not an offence to be stood in an offside position, ergo a striker could run...

    So the good old offside again.

    To add to that, the LOTG stat that "interfering with an opponent" means preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent's line of vision or challenging an opponent for the ball. Neither of which this player was doing, whilst I agree she was...

    So the good old offside again.

    That's the one that springs to mind for me as well.

    So the good old offside again.

    So had a fairly straight forward women's game this afternoon, ably assisted by two very good assistants. One of which is a regular here and will no doubt come on later. So the game was fairly dull with one side being very much better than the other. Red team have flat back four and are...

    I like it when players.......

    Players that grip their own guys for being idiots or doing a stupid challenge are always a god send as they make your life so much easier.

    Advantage red card

    Dan's example is the exact reason why you shouldn't wait.

    Advantage red card

    At Matthew says has to be the most beyond obvious goal scoring opportunity for you not to stop play.

    Abandonment

    Literally everything you type Padfoot is to question or disagree with everyone. To suggest what you type is meaningful is being generous to the extreme as you seem to pick holes in literally anything. I have yet to see a thread where you have been genuinely positive about something. To the OP...

    What are people wearing when they turn up to a match

    I was guessing at the English equal, I'm thinking from the above that supply league is the next level up from County footie.

    What are people wearing when they turn up to a match

    Similar to most on here, County games I turn up in a smart clean track suit as most places have changing rooms but certainly not ones I would wish to shower in. Anything higher than that so I guess contrib level in England, but Welsh League here is always in a suit, changing facilities are...

    Dutch Referee Blog - Can you be in offside position from a corner kick?

    I'm at a loss as to what on earth the AR was thinking here. Have they not made two mistakes here as well as they make the keeper take the kick near the goal line even though he is entitled to take it from the edge of the six yard box if the apparent "offence" has been committed within it.

    Refereeing in Girls' and Womens' Leagues

    I though he was a football league linesman and she has been select group so "assumed" she would be higher.

    Pre-Match Procedure

    I concur with lincs22, always be professional no matter what game. It gives off the right impression and sets the tone for the match.

    Getting ill before a big game. Typical.

    Typical isn't it. Eaten a tonne of oranges but still feel crappy. I suspect the away side should win your one comfortably but as is always the case with football you just never know.
