interesting that you said definite red card previously

When I saw it, my gut instinct was DOGSO. The other defender was hardly covering, as attacker was getting a clear shot on goal from a few yards out, had he not been pushed

Attwell was in the middle. Probably answers it.

And would also be a lie

I’ve never actually used Refsix, what exactly do you record in it? Do you stand there inputting data on your watch in the middle of the pitch or is it something you do after the game?

From what I remember, provisional was also used because they couldn’t change/delete fixtures. So you’d end up with a provisional for a really random date for a future than no longer existed…. Or along those lines

Provisional dates in MOAS have been around for as long as I can remember.

Leans into him? He trips him with his left leg, as well as leaning into him. Ref doesn't end up in a great position and ends up having to run very central. He's then just had to take an educated guess of goal kick, quickly changing to a corner For the DOGSO, agree with @RefereeX you're better...

To be fair, whilst this is a refereeing forum, you started talking about supermarkets. So I’d say cricket is fair game to be brought in!

Happened to me on a PL2 game. Needed to go off injured. 4O went AR and I took over 4O duties. No need for a fuss. The observe didn’t even notice we had switched (probably not the best idea 😬) Dependant on how bad the injury is, of course.

I remember doing a behind closed doors WSL game. Nothing in the game, other than a really good challenge. Sadly, player on receiving end landed awkwardly and hurt themselves. Their team mate then goes ballastic asking for a red card, despite asking me in the warm up if I will leave cards in...

The goalkeepers position is the optimum position to see incidents, including ball in/out, down the other end of the pitch

A personal favourite of @Big Cat

It’s what the game expects

I’d be interested to see the circumstances of how to tongue stud got caught in belly piercing

There's a video that does the rounds every now and again of an old chap who was a referee who wouldn't let someone play as they had a Prince Albert piercing. The player toddles off to take it out, but the referee insists on the player showing him............

Unfortunately this is The FA to a tee. They’ve never ever been very good with comms. Which is somewhat ironic when you consider a big part of your own progression comes down to your admin. It really should not be difficult to advise who this does and doesn’t apply to. And the fact we’re even...

This would make sense. The previous person holding that role was rather robotic. So much so I got a telling off for daring to have stubble at a training event. DM- Name all of the top flight officials either stubble beard Me- what? DM- see, you can’t name any as it’s unprofessional to have...

If there is a push to allow referees to show their personalities, then I’m all for that. But it just seems odd that they spent so long basically creating robots, that they are now suddenly changing it.
