Evening gents, Just had my first two games today since last season. First one I personally thought went horribly. Players didn't understand the new rules with one blaming me for them claiming I am ruining the game. (Thanks FA) Second one was a lot easier since it was 6-0. Again a bit of...

Just interested in hearing what others do since I've reffed U12's who can't take them and U8's who can.

Got my fitness assessment tomorrow. I've been practicing so I think I'll do fine. Anyone got any experience with them? I take it I wear a pair of trainers with general fitness gear or do I have to wear boots? How long does it last? Do I get to go once I've done it?

I've been assigned to a semi final game on Saturday and on top of that I will more than likely be being assessed as I am going for promotion. Anything I need to know or should?

I'm aiming to go to level 6 and I've got the written in 2 days time. I'd completely forgot about it and I'm not that confident for the test on the laws of the game. I feel my knowledge of the general rules is good but I'm still not that confident. I don't know if I'm just worrying or...

It kept saying my password was incorrect, I was 99% sure it was correct but I reset it just to make sure. Still can't log in. I just get a message saying an error has occurred. Anyone got any ideas?

That's what I thought pal but @JoeMaloney5 reckons I should put August.

Alright lads, bit of a strange question here and I'm not gonna lie. I didn't really know where to put this. I am required to submit the month and year I started refereeing on an official document but I'm not sure when to put. I began the course in August 2017 but my final exam was in November...

UPDATE: Thanks to everyone for their advice. The coach has been reported as well as the player. If I could rewind time and use the advice given to me I would not have called the game early. How ever I can only learn from it and become a better referee. Thanks everyone!

First red and every other manager I've reffed for one other manager was like this but the club he managed for got rid of him.

I was reffing a u10 game and with 5 minutes to go one of the players decided to kick out at another. I send the player off and the coach asks why I couldn't just ask him to sub. I tell him that it's about the player learning that they cannot do that. He then says "What are they learning...

I have now reported this incident to the FA, thanks everyone :)

Never mind, I've found it.

Reffed u11 today, Northumberland junior pin point but I can't find it on whole game, does anyone know How I can find it?

I just put in pinpoint and it came up.

I'm 17, had a CRB check but my friends are only 16

Pretty much my friends want to watch me ref but since it's an U11 game they think it would look a bit weird. They said they would be happy to linesmen so just to clarify, would they be allowed if they asked the managers, they allowed them and I allowed them? League rules

Says if no assistant is appointed each team will appoint one so I think I'll take that as a no.

Before I start this I'll say I'm not 100% sure this is the right place to post this but let's get to it. I'm scheduled to referee a u11 match this Sunday. This will be only my 6th game and my friends have asked if they could do the line. I trust them as to not do anything stupid or biased or...
