    Robertson & TAA's post match rants

    Totally understand that. There probably would be at least 3 red cards a game if OFFINABUS was correctly punished and I guess no fan wants to see that. Not that it makes it right, but I can understand it. Also, you just know the papers and media would be filled with comments about the ‘referee’s...

    Robertson & TAA's post match rants

    I agree - one of the examples of how it's a 'different game' at that level

    Robertson & TAA's post match rants

    I agree but I always think having the cameraman standing there makes things even harder, especially in this situation with an empty stadium. Considering dissent is very rarely punished at that level, maybe that kind of abuse isn't a big thing, but it's almost shocking to hear it from those...

    Robertson & TAA's post match rants

    Just seen Robertson and Trent Alexander Arnold loudly swear at the officials after the game. Wonder if they'll get punished. Doesn't set the best example to youngesters or even adults for how players should be after the game. Thoughts on these?

    Getting Into Refereeing

    I’d recommend getting cheap ones. For the beginning, your flags will be for ‘club ARs’, so parents, subs, etc. At my county we got free (low quality but certainly good enough for club ARs) flags, but I spent about £30 on some good ones (Touchline) once I started to work with neutral (qualified...

    When’s that?

    English Grassroots Return

    I think social distancing in the crowd can definitely be practiced, although it depends on the ground. Those with small stands can place the stickers with ticks and crosses to show which can be taken up (like you see at parliament and subs benches in football). Around the pitch, people can...

    Exeter v Northampton L2 P/O Final

    That non offside was a great call. That AR is our local RA’s chairman (did you manage to watch, @Tino Best? ) and thought he did really well

    Leeds V Fulham

    Not exactly a surprise but I’d expect him to get a 3 game ban

    Championship 27/6

    To be honest, it could be more effective as apparently it’s a lot easier to hear the coaches with no fans, so could be more effective than usual

    Leeds V Fulham

    Fair point

    Championship 27/6

    I swear last gameweek had no reds in the Championship but this week, there seemed to have been loads of incidents

    Leeds V Fulham

    I'm not so sure it's entirely the referee's fault though. Of course you could argue that he should've had a better trailing eye, but the ball's kicked quite long so he could've missed an offence on the ball. In a way, it could be better if he completely missed it, rather than saw it a bit and...

    Leeds V Fulham

    That is disgraceful, surely a ban for him. Thought the ref, Tony Harrington, was really good today. Dealt with dissent which was refreshing and just seemed so calm with dealing with incidents

    Nor v S'Ton

    Was watching the League Two play off semis yesterday and my personal highlight was when a player loudly called his teammate a C word for not passing to him and the commentators apologised "for the fruity language"

    Villa v Blades

    It's in the Championship I believe, but not League One and Two unfortunately
