If he doesn't I will.... Don't see why he's allowed to wear tape when no one else is...

Is that not this year?? As I said it was brought up by a scouser at my development group last month so just assumed it was this season... He says he'll ask Anthony Taylor (refereed Liverpool derby I think) what he thinks of it at the regional next month

I think so yep. Though surely Barkley must have some excuse or reason for wearing it?? Other than to hold his socks or shin pads in place... Can't imagine a referee decided one day that they didn't care about his tape. He's worn it all season

Anyone know why he's allowed to wear what appears to be white tape on his blue socks?? It was brought up at my last development group meeting so thought id mention it here

In an hour and a half game you really don't need any extra glucose... your body carries plenty of energy for what is mainly aerobic exercise. I personally hate lucozades etc and don't believe in them at all... All of the studies supporting the use of them are funded by the companies themselves...

I'm assuming that you haven't signalled but the time he shoots?? If that's the case then I doubt you'll have any arguments from anywhere if he misses and you pull it back... And if it was me when he scored id have put my arms up and walked away 'Jon moss' style

The second Rooney hits the floor his head turns to face dowd... He also braces his fall very well for someone who hasn't dived

Absoluteley love this description of preston hahah

This Saturday I've got probably my hardest match ever... 2nd division, local derby, between two teams known for playing to the limit and one team in particular is apparently very moany (the worst kind of team imo)... Any tips on what to do and how to approach it?? My normal approach is to give...

Ross... Just seen this on one id Brian's posts in the likes bit... Strange if you ask me and I've never seen it before so thought id bring it up :p

The pundits are saying Rooney dived to win a penalty vs some small team near blackpool tonight... I have to say having watched it was a stonewall penalty. Don't you agree @haywain ??

Moolah??

I'm giving the goal

I though assessors couldn't mark down if in there opinion the referee got it wrong (like in this instance or for a DOGSO) but only if they were wrong in law... Or is that a misunderstanding on my behalf??

But all are qualified refs!! (Or is that players?? I forget..)

You're saying that when you tackled your feet never, at any point, left the ground?? You're a better man than I then!! I'm not talking knee high btw I'm talking my inches and for a spit second?? As a former centre half my self I find it hard to believe

I do believe it was padfoot's calling referees incompetent if they didn't think that it was a red... Yacinho was simply referring to that. Personally I'm getting bored of padfoot calling referees incompetent or lazy or other if they disagree with him

It is literally impossible to slide tackle without both feet leaving the ground at some point

Never been called incompetent before... Ahh well guess because my opinion is different to padfoot's I better throw my whistle away. Shame really... I was very much looking forward to my north west regional development group and national young referee development programme meetings. Shucks

Watched it again... Can't say I think he was going in to hurt his opponent which is how I generally judge these things... Reckless imo
