    Open Age Had enough mid game and walked off

    Lesson to learn mate - always ask whomever is arranging the "friendly" who the opposing team is. Just in case you get teams you have history with. Love the idea of you throwing your whistle and watches! Must have been funny for spectators as that isn't something you see everyday. :D Chin up...

    Forgive me Refchat, for I (may) have sinned ....

    Bloody 'ell. Easy fellas, his thread title already says that he has sinned. Can we have maybe just one thread where the poster isn't hammered when they already acknowledge they have done something theh perhaps shouldn't have? But is then forced into defending a position he already acknowledges...

    Championship - Red card knocked out of ref's hand

    Man alive, what an awful challenge even if you don't factor in the dogso element of it

    The lone ref and offside

    My last game; despite warnings around offside pregame about them playing to the whistle and not the car and to think seriously about the sense of playing a high offside line without nars, they play a high offside line (close to half way line) and an opponent springs the trap and runs through and...

    The lone ref and offside

    last 5 games I have been at (1 in the middle, 4 as spectator due to Achilles' tendon issue) and a player has ended up being sent off for abusing match official following an offside decision not given. 95% of all dissatisfaction with ref decisions seems to be around offside/over ruling CAR/going...

    Mark Clattenburg - Arsenal vs Hull

    @Padfoot - enough is enough. Make your point without the abuse please. Warned several times over the last week for belittling other users. It's blatant trolling. Thread ban and a warning issued. @GraemeS - while I appreciate you were responding to padfoot, seriously calm it down please if you...

    Clattenburg to quit FA referees?

    Is he going to referee or run it? The BBC story implies training/overseeing/managerial role

    Owen Coyle

    After the push, players right in the refs face screaming at him? Anymore cards shown there?

    Alonso's Arm vs Bellerin's head

    Watching slow motion replays of most challenges is wince inducing. Slow motion turns mundane into murderous. :rolleyes:

    Mark Clattenburg - Arsenal vs Hull

    The handball goal - damned if you do, damned if you don't. :D No win situation.

    Alonso's Arm vs Bellerin's head

    Getting a bit circular and retreading existing points. Agree to disagree, move on.

    Alonso's Arm vs Bellerin's head

    You would appear to be delusional mate. Struggling to see passed your gunner allegiance?

    Alonso's Arm vs Bellerin's head

    He doesn't have to avoid him in this situation, Bellerin has moved into the path of alonso. In real time, both players are drawn to challenge for the ball and move with pace to try and get there first. Bellerin isn't just standing there with set feet, he runs across the path of alonso as much as...

    Alonso's Arm vs Bellerin's head

    I have watched the video a good few times. Just don't see it.

    Alonso's Arm vs Bellerin's head

    Did any player even ask for a foul? Not clear on the video shown as it only shows a brief time period. Usually a good indicator, but no more than that. @Padfoot - last chance mate before you are thread banned. Happy for you to debate your point, leave the nonsense out please. Now you are...

    Padfoot, pack it in with the drama please mate.

    Alonso's Arm vs Bellerin's head

    This isn't even a foul for me. Great jump by attacker, unfortunate outcome for the defender, sadly, it happens. Arms seem natural position for the jump, got higher and got there first. Goal stands. Could be argued Bellerin jumps up into alonso Suarez - looked to see where the opponent was...

    When another ref inspects your pitch...

    Lol Worse. Patches of slippery but firm ground but with large patches of deep sticky mud. No actual surface water though.
