    Centre Circle

    Shall I refrain from chatting about VAR? The reason I mention CC is because its flawed in so many ways not just one or two teething issues. Maybe my expectations are different to others in that basic tasks i expect to work and a 1 min demo video i expect if im told your home pages has 'this' to...

    Centre Circle

    If I had been paid a tiny bit of what the CC no doubt have been to properly test this CC then sure I could happily do that,but I expect it to work and function and have basic stuff working properly its obvious it wasnt properly tested and the county have been taken for a ride. It has I believe 4...

    thanks thats the 1st ive seen of laptop version it amazed me this wasnt distributed i.e. a laptop version way ahead of season so thanks for that. Interesting I notice how all comments focussed on language and none on lack of EDI

    Centre Circle

    Have you seen the short 1 min demo where the very 1st thing it says you can access dates here doesnt actually present as described. Its a complete shambles chaoticly organised with no consideration to neurodiversity equality diversity and is FAR FAR FAR from inclusive. I call it what it is a...

    First game

    Hope it went well I recall many years ago in my training being told if you make a mistake do it really well and with conviction and no one might notice! Makes me laugh today but seriously enjoy it and remember you have EQUAL entitlement to enjoy the match I think especially coaches forget that.

    What a shambles this is. What a waste of money the county FAs have invested in a pile of **** not properly tested not functioning as intended and a CEO of the company that cant string 2 sentences together to explain how even he thinks its supposed to work. No consideration to neurodiversity...

    U15'S

    personally i report virtually anything and everything to the county FA over many years ive never had them say thanks but no need to reports x y z in fact quite the opposite more like "carry on what you're doing" either they love the money i bring them in fines dished out or im doing an ok job ...

    U15'S

    The ole shoe lace needs to be done up time waster i dont buy into this rubbish i tell them before ko in my pre-amble to tie them up - not saying i dont ever allow this but there is a time and place not when a team is hanging on for a result in final few minutes.

    IFAB Law Changes for 2025/26

    my county FA refused to allow me to wear bodycam at grassroots despite me being assaulted and threatened previously and me prepared to pay for the equipment myself and wear it in a public park pitch! To say I felt un-supported is an understatement!

    1st we had a youth league offering £ incentives now clubs too!

    I have not done it myself but Im assuming some refs might. Its an odd thing but shows how desperate some clubs are to get a ref

    Double headers

    Sorry to hear that my experience is 1 normal fee paid twice (Home team pay one game and Away team the other game). I think these double-headers are of the league's own making as some age groups for example may have 8 teams in division 1, then 18 in division 2 and its the latter that struggle to...

    Double headers

    looking at the weather this weekend you may also get the ridiculous situ where if you insist on the 30 min break when that's over the second match becomes say waterlogged and unplayable and I know a few pitches that is quite possible.

    Double headers

    I agree. I've checked and it does stipulate: Under 11 and 12First game (home -v- away) - 20 minutes each way with a 10 minute break Full 30 minute break Second game (away -v- home) - 20 minutes each way with a 10 minute break etc. (per age group all have 30 mins full break)

    Double headers

    Yes the league ref secretary send out instructions and i believe it has always been officially e.g. under 16 usually 2 x 40 mins is game 1 2 x 20 mins with same format game 2, but an interval of 30 mins in-between. Quite honestly no-one wants it and doubt applied; I just mention this is...

    Double headers

    They pay double (except travel only once) so what's not to like you get to ref the same amount of football. The only thing that is sometimes farcical is the league stipulate a rest period of 30 mins in-between games that no-one wants and doubt ever happens - both teams will 99.9% always want and...

    "You've ruined the game ref"

    Reminds me of the "he's only 14, 15years old" etc and I reply show me where in the LOTG it says for his age take a different approach. I get it he is 14 or 15 and 5 mins into his match a DOGSO ruins his game but Im just applying the LOTG. Im the messenger if you like.
