Ahhrghh!! You people annoy me - gaining an unfair advantage by taking drugs to get the milk ;););)

I misread the title of this thread - I thought they'd introduced a new level on the ladder called 4S!!

Even though I have done some open-age football, I reckon that my game tomorrow will be my toughest yet. I was appointed late as the original referee pulled out, and frankly I was surprised I was given it. It is U16 (my own age group) and I have been told that the away team can be 'feisty'...

Last Saturday Fleetwood took a quick free kick (badly) which hit a Southend player who was running back (not trying to block it) and the referee ordered a retake from which they scored (not that I'm bearing any grudges!) Today Southend attempted a quick free kick against Burton and a similar...

I just hope that the police get involved.

Maybe your brain is trying to send you a message!? :cool:

I'd love to see it done!!

I was hoping the ref didn't book him - it was the correct decision but it was annoying Chelsea fans!

I like your school!! When do you have lunch - if that were my school then we would only have 15 mins between lunch and that break!!

I'm so glad Atletico won. It serves Mourinho right for parking the bus in Madrid, and no doubt he'll criticise Atletico for time-wasting even though that's what he did in Madrid and Liverpool (much in the same way that he criticised West Ham's '19th Century' tactics). A good kick in the teeth...

Agree with @Ryan - disagreed with a lot of decisions

oh, cba!

Looks like a good game. Got 71 but scoreboard didn't register it

I agree with the point, and as it happened what @svenny76 did was effective, but I think the majority of captains would have reacted very differently. It's certainly not advisable to say to a captain "I was going to send him off but your team started annoying me so I'm not going to."

In changing your decision you are allowing players to influence your decision, and I thinks it's a risky strategy telling the captain. In this case he took it well but if you tell a captain that you would have sent off an opponent then that doesn't look good on you. Yellow for USB using the same...

I've never seen it like that. I'm not in this photo, but this is from the Essex FA website and I think it looks better than the other way round:

Two players from the same team injured have to leave the field - if it's one from each team (e.g. clash of heads) then they don't have to leave the field.

The assessor may also wish to consult the law - ten yards is not the 'recommended' distance, but the 'required' distance - a subtle but significant difference.

We'll see :p

Same - I was really annoyed when the fixture list came out for this season an Pompey away was on a Tuesday night
