    Whole Game System - Game Delayed

    Put the time that the match was set to kick off. That will be how it would have been registered everywhere else.

    in the back

    Watch the elbows of the player behind. If the player from behind maintains bent elbows throughout the challenge, there isn't any pushing from his side - the player in front may simply be 'backing in' to the player behind him. However, if the arms extend and the elbows lock, then there has been a...

    Travelling as a team

    On the league I am on, the referee secretary will organise the joint travel. When the fixtures come through, if your has an asterisk next to it, then you are set to be travelling with whoever else has an asterisk. This would be left up to the pair (or trio) to organise. It is not always the...

    Cards not allowed

    I believe that to be incorrect. While the cautions aren't submitted if they are handed out, I believe the academies have their own in house rules. They record cautions for their players and if they get so many they are banned - or so I have been told. No doubt if they lashed out at an opposition...

    Assessors

    Not to put a slur on the promotion from level 7 to 6, but as long as you can turn up, look smart and officiate a game without too many issues, you shouldn't have too many problems. From my understanding, to get to 5, there is more of a focus on positioning. Give it a go, if you make it, great...

    Ref position without Assistant Referee

    For the positioning in your assessments, the assessor generally just wants to see you take up various positions. Rather than consistently taking up the same position for corner kicks (behind the rear post), change it around, make your starting position different each corner. Once the corner has...

    Mid season change to L5-4 promotion criteria

    As Bester has said, my understanding is that it is designed in the way it is, so that all of the promotion seminars can take place before the pre-season begins and then the newly promoted officials (at the higher end of the spectrum) manage to get a few matches worth of experience under their...

    A strange five minutes

    Apologies, had become completely distanced from the OP and thought we were discussing additional time. In that case, I completely side with yourself, the game cannot be shortened during the match, should be decided before-hand. Wasn't blaming you at all for not understanding, was just trying...

    A strange five minutes

    This is where the issue is coming. The points you are bringing up, to attempt to stupefy my comments from earlier on are fundamentally wrong in law. As quoted on page 29: I am unsure of the definition of 'discretion' in other areas of the world, but according to the Oxford English dictionary...

    A strange five minutes

    I'm not too sure what this whole reporting nonsense is about. We are there to facilitate the game and allow it to take place, we cannot be demanding that the players play football. In law, you would not have a leg to stand on in terms of cautioning any players. Reporting it to the league would...

    Assessment 2- 5 to 4

    As far as I am aware, it is all done on a banding system. In short, the officials are marked by assessors and the clubs. The best performing referees are given AA, and the worst EE. At the end of the season, the AA's are generally promoted and the EE's are demoted (unless in their first season -...

    Kinesiology Taping

    I sprained my ankle earlier this season, ordered some of this stuff and found it helped recovery quite a bit! If anything, it has a psychological effect. I felt confidence that my ankle would hold while wearing it. Now if/when my ankle flares up again, I'll pop some back on for a week just to...

    Blisters - any tips

    Prevention will be better than cure in the future! Try and grab some Zinc Oxide tape and place it on the points of your feet which have just recently blistered up (once healed), or if you feel any other part of your foot feeling slightly sore. Should help to prevent blisters in the future!

    Top 3 ignored laws

    Did Mark Clattenburg not give one in the Manchester United vs Manchester City match? If I remember correctly, Antonio Valencia took a throw in from the half way line & MC awarded the throw in the other way, then gestured to Valencia that his hands have to come from behind his head and cannot...
