I just ordered a chicken and an egg off Amazon I'll let you know ...

A snake :)

Sure there are other (better) videos - but - this one shows what happened ... looks well managed and those furthest away - including far-side AR - got a good sprint in :) From 1m 40 ...

I understand the first one Foul seen Attacking player goes to ground Likelihood of advantage lower Blows whistle Simples

@HertsFinest - I didn't actually say it was the players & coaches saying how much they love referees - some do though (!) - mainly it's parents on youth games If you do want to be treated like royalty - come join me on the http://easternjunioralliance.com/ - lots of teams your way - League...

Oops - it wasn't a pecking order - more of a brainstorm :)

... people seem to worship us by saying we can't have football games without referees ... Yes we play a part in the football family - but - we aren't Gods or even the most important part !! For me - it's the coaches who are the most important ... they put the effort in mid-week and game day...

I'm thinking about accepting contactless payments ... I rake it in ... players will often go for the £5 cash option rather than a £10 caution processed through Whole Game ...

My wife and I are having a competition to see who can steal the most dog related stuff from our local pet shop ... I've just taken the lead!

I've hard quiet words with Refs who I know don't put cards through - as well as several chats with Club officials - wouldn't suggest doing anything else Refs have told me they had no idea how to put cards through - even if they wanted to! ... No-one had ever told them how (This was a time...

I'm very used to being asked if I am putting cards through - sure most of us are by now ... Vast majority accept my explanation They just know that - unfortunately - especially at grass roots - maybe 1 in 3 refs won't be putting them through Don't ask - don't get ...

Very good shout :)

... What are the chances of: The club grassing the ref up for not putting it through The other club checking it went through Someone else watching the game checking ... VERY small - so - I can see why last week's ref would risk it Luckily none of us are that person ;)

@DanCohen17 - do let me know if ever you're playing - very happy to go double or quits on my warning points :)

@Charlie Jones was more of a hinderence to his team on the pitch !! They got beat 13-4 having been 2-2 at half time His best moment was "defending" a near post corner that went straight in After that Charlie was very helpful shouting for offsides from a v deep left back position Didn't get...

@es1 and others - yep - sussed me - this isn't a 'genuine' thread - albeit he isn't going to play 90 minutes The fella I am going to send off is @Charlie Jones - I'm ref-ing his (county sanctioned!) charity game on Saturday - I've heard it'll be £5 for the charity per caution - so - it'll be...

OK fellas - thanks for feedback ... I am going to walk him asap ... 1st throw-in he takes from the wrong (in my eyes) place - I'll caution him ... Hopefully he'll react and it'll be an easy 2nd yellow If he's not taking the throw-ins I'll do the same for a free-kick he takes ... that's it -...

@richard ramjane - I don't really have any issues with him - actually quite like the fella - but - I felt he really let me down last time I saw him @DB - good points - would normally be very happy to use the assets at my disposal - but - for him - as above - I want to find a way to help him on...

@Cheshire Ref - thanks for posting - although never nice - getting these stories out there can help sell the pre-game "you're not playing unless you take it off" chat in the tunnel

Yep @Charlie Jones - his biggest game of the season - I want to get inside his head - put him off his game - cherry on the icing on the cake will be him reacting and me walking him in front of all his friends & family
