    Euro 2020 final

    True, I was wondering why they waited so long to bring them on. Maguires penalty broke the camera in the back of the net. It’s disappointing, but we have a team that can be built on for the World Cup etc, lots of young talent.

    Euro 2020 final

    Penalties are the great leveller. I feel sorry for Saka, at 19 and having the hopes of (most) of the nation on your shoulders. I don’t understand what Rashford was upto, those sorts of penalties are fine as long as you put it in the back of the net.

    An interesting one, I’d hope my AR would raise this before the penalty was taken (if they saw it, obviously)

    What makes you think it was a clear and obvious error? From the replays I’ve seen it looked like there was a enough there for it to go either way albeit a very soft penalty. I don’t think I would have been complaining if it hadn’t been awarded.

    It was definitely soft, but VAR was obviously happy that the referee hadn’t made a clear and obvious error.

    Had to get some new kits to fit around my ample frame. ordered from some random sports shop, no embroidery but much cheaper than A&H or the RA Store, and delivery took 3 days instead of several weeks.

    Player abusive to club linesman. What actions can you take?

    I’m not sure that’s true, and we certainly shouldnt be recommending that people ignore the laws for the sake of keeping the clubs happy.

    Player abusive to club linesman. What actions can you take?

    I’d suggest it is a referee of a relatively high level game who knows that he is being filmed, and that if he doesn’t apply the laws correctly that it is him who’ll be for the high jump. Violent conduct is violent conduct, if the player thinks they’ve been hard done by then they can appeal and...

    Getting Ready for 21/22

    I’ve always had a problem running on a track, not sure why but I’ve always found it difficult to maintain a steady pace. I found doing the Cooper test where you have to run a set distance as fast as possible much easier on a road etc.

    Player abusive to club linesman. What actions can you take?

    If a CAR tells me that someone has said something to them and I’ve not heard it, I tell them that as I’ve not heard it I can’t do anything, but that I’ll keep an ear out as best I can in case there are any more instances.

    Player abusive to club linesman. What actions can you take?

    I’m with @one on this. If I hear/see something and can positively identify the offender it will be dealt with accordingly, but I wouldn’t act solely on the word of a CAR.

    That’s the hard thing with tests like this, resisting the urge to keep up with the whippets at the front, and/or trying to race other people.

    Player abusive to club linesman. What actions can you take?

    The Laws of The Game make no allowance for “self defence”.

    True, but that doesn’t stop it from being SFP.

    I missed it in real time but the re-play in real time made me immediately say red card. Clearly accidental as most fouls are, but you can’t go flying into challenges like that.

    Depending where you got it from that table is probably fairly accurate for your “average” person. And it’s not really a difficult standard to meet. In the Army every man under 30 and not in units with higher fitness standards has to run 2.4km in 10:30 or faster, which equates to above...

    Player abusive to club linesman. What actions can you take?

    You can book or send off. Them being qualified has nothing to do with the sanctions you can apply. my personal approach is that while the have the flag club linesmen are prt of my team, and I treat any abuse aimed them the same as I would if it were aimed at me. Ive never had to send someone...
