Agreed. It is quite annoying as I want them to be accurate!😂 I seem to trust my Apple Watch more naturally. I’m not sure why.

Morning all, Whilst officiating, I wear a Apple Watch using refsix on my left wrist, and a Spintso S1 Pro watch on my right. I’ve noticed this for a while- they both tell me that I ran different amounts during games and I’m not sure which one is more accurate. For example, I did a step 5 game...

Yes- I am qualified. It’s not always ideal but I’m always fair when I do it. I think the manager of the district team (who I coach with) likes me refereeing. So he asked me to do it. It’s not always ideal but if there’s no one else for our boys on a Sunday morning then I end up doing it anyway!

Absolutely! I’ve seen him do it at a tournament. He does it to wind up opposition players. At u15’s, it’s crazy!!

He got booked- not for pinching someone, though!

He pinches their backs. It’s quite odd. Not their butt, backside, etc. The players’ backs. I didn’t have neutral assistants for this one but thankfully (the game was earlier today) I am not aware of any incidents with him pinching anyone. He did get booked though 🤦😂 (not for pinching. For SPA)

Thanks Max. Much appreciated.

Absolutely! Thanks for this.

Thank you. I know this particular player has a reputation for doing this when he plays- but I’ve never heard of him getting sent off

I can’t find it in the laws of the game- is pinching someone violent conduct or a booking? I have a game tomorrow. It’s a district game, u15’s. I coach 5 of the boys playing (they’re the home team). One of the boys told me that one of the away team players pinches players from behind. I have...

For me. I get the email from the club. I thank them for getting in contact with me and and tell them I am looking forward to the game. With the managers, I introduce myself. Ask them how they are. And if there are team sheets, I ask them if they are completed and if not, say can I have them by...

Thanks for letting me know. I find it quite interesting :)

Thank you. Love how they put it up if it’s televised😂. Is that only for 4th official? Or do all the officials fees go up?

Do you know what the fees are for middles and 4th official on there?

If I remember correctly, (or I might be having a complete brain breakdown) but are you from Sussex? If so, Brighton academy might be worth it. I believe they use neutral AR’s even at u11’s. I presume it’s the same for every academy in the country.

I’m not quite sure what they are but would your work colleagues not see themselves as part time/ semi professional? Especially level 3?

We have some level 5’s in the middle on step 6 games in our area! I haven’t yet come across a level 4 in the middle for a step 6 game. They only seem to be for step 5 in the league I operate in

It should be one year below your own age. But I am not sure wether this is age groups (so u14) or not. I am 16 and I do adults football and am an AR at step 5/6. At 16 you can do any age.

I use Refsix and that works quite well. yeah I can trust it. It seems to tell the wrong time when it died and then I recharged it but after I connected it to my phone it was fine again. (And still is. I am wearing it right now and it’s fine)

I use it as well. I quite like it. I do keep track of bookings on my yellow card and I use my notebook for subs, red cards, and various other information
