That sounds brilliant @Brian Hamilton. Puts real value into the annual subscription to the RA.

Joy! Perhaps there is hope for me!

I had a suspicion that you would be younger @LHref as county fa's will give younger officials these sorts of fixtures to test you out for the climb up the pyramid. Us new boys who over 30 probably won't get a sniff of these games!

@LHref are you quite young?

Well at least the one i got last year was and the one i got in the post looks the same!

How did you get the nod for this one @LHref?

The Essex badges are iron-on ones @Charlie Jones.

What kit are they out of @HertsFinest? They told me last week that they were fully stocked. Their mobile website pages are not accurate at the moment.

Daft question, is there anyone else out there who has wide feet and has boots that are a good fit? I end up having to size up for sake of width which then means blisters everywhere!

Joined last year, now the secretary! Same story for us, a core of dedicated members but do struggle for numbers despite 40+ paid up members! We've moved venues this season to the local ryman league stadium, using social media more and revamping meetings. Challenge to all ra's is keeping...

"I work in a school for kids who get expelled and you two really remind me if them!" Said by me to two ryman league coaches during a friendly when they were starting to get rude with each other as i was stood on the halfway line during attack at one end. Got a lot of raised eyebrows from the...

Sounds like we are almost back in the days of old offside rule, I'd be pleased to see us go back to it!

Can you send off for a technical offence that denies a goal scoring opportunity? For instance if a player did an overhead kick off the goal line as an attacker attempts to head the ball in you could argue that it was dangerous play and dogso? If you send off there though you may have to do a...

Tough one. Have to make a judgement call.

Once a keeper is up then I count to myself then on 5/6 I call the keeper to "come in keeper". At youth it very rarely happens but as you say good for the older players.

Why couldn't you be a bit fatter/taller!? I'd love an extra kit but would have to be large!

Bagged a spot on a couple of local tournaments so I have about 8-10 games to do!

This is everything I said to the blokeffrom the BBC!

U16s top division of the league, 2nd v 6th but both could still win the league and 6th beat 2nd last night in cup final 5-4 aet! Yummy!
