    Improving my sprint speed

    If you aren't - train with somebody as they will give you an indication where you need to improve. It maybe you take too long to get up to speed sprinting, so you need to work harder at the first 5/8 yards.

    EFL 2 August incidents

    Watched the Grimsby v Crawley, the penalty given (by the AR) was doubtful. But the challenge in the 2nd half, where the Grimsby player is pulled by the back of his shirt should have been. In fairness to the referee, player was facing him, so had no chance to see and wrong side for AR. Sorry...

    Injured AR in EFL

    https://talksport.com/football/3438735/shrewsbury-bromley-efl-league-two-match-suspended-crowd-referee/ It always surprises me that the game has to be suspended to find a 4th official! The injured AR could act as a 4th official until a additional official has been found in instances like this...

    Fake hints and tips for new Referees.

    Also, extra time is "overtime", so you get an extra 50% fee for the extra work

    Tight calf muscles - help!

    I suffered from the same and standing on a step (or a kerb) for a few minutes helps. Also, see a podiatrist as you may have alignment issues cause by pro or antinarion of the foot. Some specialist insoles may help

    Fake hints and tips for new Referees.

    If in doubt for a throw-in, guess. It is easier than trying to justify a wrong decision

    Fake hints and tips for new Referees.

    Don't worry about making a mistake during the match. The players don't mind and they won't mention it at all

    IPS v ARS Red Card

    Chris Kavanagh made that decision quickly. Looks late and high, but no different to 10 other challenges this weekend. Was he right?

    Talking to players, managers, linesman etc.

    I would add for the managers "For substitutions, please wait until I signal for them to come on."

    Violent Conduct

    You are correct in what you have done.... From a learning point of view, I would not have expected you to have asked him to leave. Once he has left the field of play, his conduct becomes that of the club. So from a preferred approach, when you stopped the game, you should have gone to his club...

    Arsenal v Brentford

    I think it is one where both YC and RC could be given. A lot will depend on viewing angles. I think VAR was right to leave alone, but if the Referee had given a RC, it would have stayed as correct. Personally, I think is was sufficiently high and late to be endangering the safety of the...

    Pre Match Level 4 and Above

    The words of David Elleray to his assistants... "And don't f888 up"

    Tips for Promotion

    Fitness is a key criteria for operating at higher levels. Football at L4 and above has never been quicker than it is now, so you should try to be the fittest person on the pitch. Other things can be thought to you, but you have to do the fitness training yourself.

    Pre Match Level 4 and Above

    I was always of the belief that AR2 should record the goals. Reasoning - AR1 normally more experienced, so more aware of potential misconduct and can see the TA's, as that is where it could come from. If they record the game, they will have their head in the book at a potential KMI. If you go...

    how to work as ar

    @CaptainsPlease Since the East Riding gave up it's supply league status around 5 years ago, the lowest level of football with assistants in Hull is the NCEL div 1. @cancan You should talk to your RDO to see if they can get you nominated to the AR list. Normally it will be people on the...

    Referee Injury

    In this situation, if you felt that the assistants couldn't take over and there was nobody willing to step up, you would have to abandon. It would be left to the league to resolve, as they appointed unsuitable assistants to the match (as they didn't have the experience to referee). If you are...

    Start Watch/Whistle or Whistle/Start Watch.

    Always start the watches first and check they are running before you blow. I have seen referees all fingers and thumbs in the first few seconds trying to start watches and distracted in checking they are running. Everton scored after 10 seconds yesterday, so if you were pratting around with...

    Manager bawling out their own player

    The Club will have a Club Welfare Officer, as the team is U18. After the match, they should be your first point of contact is you have concerns about the attitude of the manager. Your CFA will be able to provide their contact details, if not listed in the league handbook/on the website.

    Need a 5-4 fitness test before 31st Dec

    Doubtful there will be any fitness test done at this time of the year. Too cold and wet for people to stand around while you do he run. Probably won't be any until april next season. Sorry.

    Dissent after the final whistle

    The very definition of post-match abuse. You need to report as a misconduct report to the CFA and to the league for improper conduct by a team official. He will learn quickly not to open his mouth, if he doesn't like your performance
