    Vanishing spray

    I'm all for it, but the cost of the stuff will most likely prohibit most using it. Unless it gets supplied by the competition (I suspect the PL and FL may bring it in fairly soon.) Your average L7-L3 isn't going to want to be spending £X per game on the stuff IMO A friend has acquired some...

    FA Guidelines for Assistant Referees fouls in and around the penalty area

    I'm glad that there is now definitive and crystal clear instructions on this. Whenever I've run the line the referees pre match brief has always included how to 'give' a penalty. Some want the flag across the chest, some want the flag up and a big step right, some want something else. Now we...

    Bjorn Kuipers

    IMO he one of the best in Europe at the moment. I would like to see him follow in HW's footsteps and do both the CL and WC finals in the same year. However I think they will give it to a non European ref this time around (providing there are any left that haven't made big errors)

    first middle for a cup final

    Ahhhh, the Dripping Pan. Lovely little ground and the only football venue I've paid to enter, then slept through all 90 minutes of the game. Congrats on the appointment and enjoy the game.

    Skrill North, South and Prem Playoffs

    Who cares! My (Conf South) team got relegated on Saturday, by an 88th minute penalty :cry: FWIW I hope Sutton go up, they were the best team I saw in the two games I saw of them

    Whole Game System - no more emailing caution/misconduct reports

    Looks very slick and when its all up and working properly I'm sure it'll be great. It has just pissed me off though, went to re-register for next season, got all the way through to final payment page where it crashed out. Sod it, I'll try again another day!

    GPS watch - garmin forerunner 220

    I've got the 610 and it's brilliant. Overlay on Google maps is great as are all the other features. The touch screen is a bit fiddly at times but I've customised it to show the big 4 details that I'm interested in. Looking at my stats I'm doing about 4.5-5 miles per game.

    And breath, woooo saaaaaarrr

    Chin up and forget it. You did your job, how the players chose to play the game is not your problem. Enjoy the beer and get out next game and enjoy that!

    Mistaken identity

    One for tomorrow morning upon receiving any complaints: "see that yesterday, even the best **** it up from time to time" :) I guess that Gibbs will have his red rescinded, but will Ox-C be given one retrospectively?

    Promotion

    Very same question was asked at our promotion evening a few weeks ago. Answer was categorical no they don't count for us. Reason was (I think, from memory) all promotion games have to be as part of an officially recognised league or cup.

    Double Headers

    Got a very similar email from my league regarding double headers. On red cards in game one they have said: "If a player gets red carded in game number one, he can play in the second game but I would suggest if it’s for violent conduct you don’t play him purely as its saves any additional...

    County Cup finals!

    I've been given one. 4th Official on a Sunday Cup Final. Was pretty surprised as its my first full season, but looking forward to it.

    So, who is definitely going for promotion this year

    £25, £10. I can't believe how little some counties are charging for the 'bond'. Middlesex have had £50 off of me.

    So, who is definitely going for promotion this year

    That sounds like a very good idea from your county. I've sent off my application today, 7-6 the same as many of you on here. Heres hoping the weather improves in March and we can start getting some games in.

    How are the pitches looking?

    Everything binned for the weekend. At this rate we'll still be playing games in July.

    How are the pitches looking?

    Finally got my first (proper) game of the year in today. Had it moved onto a 4G pitch as both teams pitches were unplayable but it was a very good game in beautiful sunshine.
