Well they were bound to get their own back at some point. I'm not so sure he will do it though :p http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/arsenals-alex-oxlade-chamberlain-kieran-gibbs-4086898?utm_content=buffer0c41d&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer

The way I like to look at advantage is would they be able to do it from a free kick? so if the played it to a player that is offside, I think they could have easily done it from a free kick, so I wouldn't have brought it back!

Thanks, I was switched on, I just was getting used to the tempo of the match, so now in used to it I will be able to be in line from the start!

Yeah, that makes sense, I was junior, so I was using the yellow flag :)

Make sure your happy with your mental strength as I could have started In January, but chose to only start around now, as I wasn't happy I was mentally strong enough. Matches can be mentally straining, also make sure you look confident after every decision, I had to make an informed guess over...

Thanks mate, I've got no idea to be honest, I will ask the assessor next time I see him!

I received my first assessment from my first game, I was an assistant referee at supply league level, I am very happy with it to be honest, and I have just found out I am being assessed as an assistant on my next game on Friday night so I am hoping to have an improvement on my mark, I have...

I was kept being caught out of line with the second last defender, I think it was just because I wasn't used to the tempo of supply league football.

I had my first adult match yesterday, couldn't have really gone much better, my nerves went through the roof when I found out we were being assessed, but the assessor basically said I had a very good game and only negative he could say was that I kept being out of line in the first 15 mins...

Exactly what I meant, couldn't have put it better myself :)

Not really, I'm not sure what sort of teams you've been refereeing, but generally teams want the correct decisions and if that takes a quick word with the referee, then so be it.

Then you do the complete opposite, keep you flag down and inform the referee he can award the goal

Stand you ground and beckon the referee over and ask who played the ball, if it is the player who was in an offside position raise the flag and explain to the referee

make sure you remember your flag work and footwork, basically keep the flag the closest side to the referee at all times

Not quite kit, but new training wear selfie, as I am now about I leave for my match, keep your eyes peeled for my kit selfie ;)

I've been smashed the night before a game and didn't go too well, may have to try it that way round :p
