    Last middle tomorrow

    I was talking to my secretary after the final I had and he said that he would be in touch with friendlies as they all have to have qualified referees just like any competitive games. I would email a couple of referee secretaries and say that you are available for any games if you are needed.

    Penalty or not 2

    MIck you were right to give the penalty. One tip I picked up when I was an AR was that the referee always waited a few seconds before making a decision to see what advantage could be taken. As you have said you were about to play the advantage when the attacking player was fouled again and...

    Handball by striker?

    James as you said earlier " the attacker who handled the ball was facing the wrong way when the ball hit him." You cant sell that as a deliberate handball as the attacking player couldnt know where the ball is to stop it with his hand/arm, therefore the goal should stand and not give the...

    Suarez

    While I agree with Mick I feel that the FA will do next to nothing as he will probably get a 5 game ban and a £12k fine which is nothing to a player on his wages. As for Bratislav Ivanovic I cant see him complaining to the police and how likely is it that Suarez will get convicted not very IMO.

    Two players fouling each other

    Matty while I can see what your saying I don't completely agree with you. We are all qualified referee's in our own right and should be able to make decisions based on what we saw according to the LOTG. Matty639: Based on what you have said I would've done exactly as the referee did in your...

    Hi :)

    Hi Nikki and welcome to RefChat. I agree there aren't enough female referees involved in football, I believe the one known to most people is Sian Massey (please let me know if i am wrong). There is only one female referee on the leagues I officiate on as well how ever the numbers are slowly...

    7-6 exam

    Congratulations on passing the exam Dave. I have also recently sat the exam and although I know that I passed I do not know the %. Super the exam questions are easier (IMO) than the basic exam to qualify you to referee. They are all based on the LOTG not what Law 18 (common sence) says.

    What if...

    If you have stopped play and issued a caution for the first foul and the player then, a few minutes later does another, then is a second caution and a RC as per LoTG. As Matty says if hes that stupid to do it twice in as many minutes he deserves everything he gets.
