I thought mine would be off.... even phoned in the morning to double check, luckily it was on for me, no issues.... apart from three cautions, one of which in response to a players teammate being fouled, he waved an imaginary card wanting me to book the opposition player... that didn't happen...

I had a very similar game yesterday, two equal sides, some good football being played. I awarded two penalties, one for each side and no arguments at all. Had a laugh during the game and chat in the changing rooms with both sides, an enjoyable Sunday. REWIND 24 HOURS... 1-0 to the home side...

I once a couple of years ago at full time had a goalkeeper (losing side goalkeeper) say "My Dad works for the FA, I'm going to report you" I smiled and said crack on with that then.

I've had three in a week, wouldn't want to do more and that was a one off too. For October I'm lined up for 9 middles and one Supply League line

I didn't know this. Is that across all CFA's? I've got two above standard under my belt already with 9 games out of the magic 20 quota.

Yeah it went really well. It was a dull first half, one player was on a final warning for persistent fouling, second half starts he fouls again but play a really good advantage then go back to caution him. Assessor was happy with that, then I'm the space of 15-20 minutes ended up cautioning 5...

I am being 'observed' tomorrow for the second time for my Level 6 to Level 5. Hoping it goes well as the first was above standard. It's on a 3G pitch with wet weather forecast tomorrow.

I've got Ashford Town (Middlesex) v Barnet FC on Saturday on the line. It should be a good game.

I did a pre season middle on Thursday night on a 3g pitch involving a supply league side, turned and jarred my ankle, painful at first but ran it off, Friday morning went on a stag weekend to Benidorm, most it on feet and some disco dancing, laid in sun and have burnt my feet. Now I have a sore...

Firstly, hope you're okay, that's the main thing. Fair play for ending it, repeated threats of that nature is awful. If you have not already, report it to the Police. I hope your CFA supports you fully and the book is thrown at him.

I agree..... however he was unconscious, due to the serious injuries to both it was never going to restart again, and he wasn't going to leave field for treatment, both remained on pitch with blankets on until ambulances arrived

He was 'attempting' however he came in so fast, goalkeeper looked just favourate to win it, which he did. If the are both jumping at same speed, no issues, it's when you come in at speed, it's reckless. He didn't get the second caution as he unconscious and as I explained to managers, before...

Yes both were receiving treatment, the home physio was just more vocal about his opinion

Typical end of season game, both teams cannot end up higher of lower, should be a nice game, nice day.... Oh how incorrect was I. To be fair the sides were not great and football wasn't great either despite it being an intermediate premier division fixture. First incident, no neutral assistant...

Just had pencilled in a game on Tuesday 26th, 1st v 2nd, last league game of season, however league has been decided already. That will be my 6th middle of promotion season, then 14 to go thereafter

Indeed.... and Touché

A quick flag is a s%*t flag

Last two years I've had league cup finals in the middle, on the line and a 4th official. No league cup finals this year though, however I've got a county cup final on the line this season. It maybe that I've not had any league final action is because I changed leagues in the middle of the season...

I find that I have more control saying to the player where I want it placed, I'm not going to place a ball for them. I would like to think I'm nowhere near the ball for it to be played back, I'd hope I would have a player in close proximity to me. I've been assessed a few times, inexperienced AR...

He wasn't pleased about it, and assessor said at the end of the first half he went to the end of the ground to pick up the second match ball, the assessor stated that he felt he should move to the referees side to support the referee, the referee asked him to go and pick this ball up, the...
