Correct.
I wouldn’t say doesn’t matter though.
The word ‘distinguishable’ is also used in the outfield players colours so if your are referring to one then you will need to refer to the other.
If both are different shades of green and are fine then so would different shades of orange / red.
Know your line (comes with more experience).
Don’t be afraid to slow the game down to lay down your expectations. Call a player over be firm but fair. Tell them that is not how you speak to me on this pitch.
Don’t panic if you think you have made a mistake just take each decision on its own...
I genuinely think (at grassroots level especially) that giving this as a penalty because the arm is out (potentially making it fall into the unnaturally bigger category) but accidental therefore a caution is an easier sell than waving this away as a play on. Look at player reaction as well… a...
Perfect example of why the handball law is so challenging as a referee albeit anyone to interpret.
Football expects this to be handball but as a defender there is no way he is getting out of the way of that.
Defend with your arms tucked in is the only thing he can possible do to prevent this.
Thanks.
I will be upfront and honest and see what happens. I am still looking forward to it and ironically, I don’t think I would have been appointed to any had my correct address been entered, so I look upon it as a positive.
Funny story.. I have had another appointment through (my third ever) and I upon looking at the location started to see a pattern… they were a very long way away.
Having then checked my MOAS account my address is completely wrong. Tomorrow I am travelling a 142 mile round trip to run the line...
Out of interest .. does anyone know how they decide to appoint people to FA cup competitions?
Last year I had none, this year I have two already.
I know my county nominated me but how do they decide? Random somewhat?
