Once we get to Level 4 to have any chance of doing well we have to complete a LOTG exam online which is composed of 5 clip analysis questions and 10 written questions. This is all multiple choice but is nearly always written in a way to make you think. Anything below L4 where you are a...

I don't so much praise the players, but if it's a good tempered game and the striker has made a terrible choice when through on goal, I'll usually say "what the f*** has he done there" to the closest teammate and that usually gets a chuckle. Pick the players carefully tho some will not see the...

If you are cautioning the striker, I'm running over the logistics of the order of sanction. Obviously normally you go more severe sanction first but in an already hard to sell situation like this would anyone consider the caution for the striker first? Otherwise I can imagine there will be a lot...

Luckily managed to get mine to a local derby (somehow)

Yes I keep getting hit with the "resource limit reached" error. What am I supposed to do now instead of actually doing my day job?

Honestly, with how the law was written I am not surprised we didn’t even make it 1 month into the season before the first “controversy”. As I said before strictly by law you were right in the video. But what you said you are doing now will cause far less headaches for you. Regardless of the...

I was lucky enough to have a middle for the first game as a 5-4 candidate, would the county have any input on who should have these games?

I did my own count while watching this and even then I was between 4/3 left so would probably agree that the referee on this game needs a bit of additional guidance regarding this. Will be tough for him if that's the speed he is doing all season. Edit: Strictly speaking from the moment he...

Can I issue myself a C1 (BE) retrospectively?

So I have been the only moody bugger making life even harder for goalkeepers then. Will start counting aloud before I get pelters from my brother who is a gk

Not sure about anyone else but every game I've done so far this season I've been told I am the only referee to not count the last 5 aloud. But I'm fairly sure in a previous thread it was said the FA said not to

And unlike the other hypothetical, you might still get a game the week after

Knowing that they are already doing provisional appoints has reminded me I need to make changes before I get any. I know a mate of mine has got some up to the last weekend of sept so they are definitely earlier than last season

That is a very valid point that I hadn't thought of. I was looking at it from an extra player point of view instead of the missed red card mistake. If this is from an exam that the OP has to complete, the creators clearly aren't being nice to them

I was reading through the LOTG trying to see what trick they had up the sleeve and of course it look like they do for this. In Law 3: 9. Goal with an extra player on the field of play If, after a goal is scored, the referee realises, before play restarts, that an extra person was on the field...

Could always style it out if wrong with a Law states that .... but I would do ..... because of the level of the game

Being passionate about football means you can be as aggressive to the referees as you want. And when they get done for dissent it is being 'Busy'

We have had this discussion previously about DOGSO advantage and I was wrongly in the he can't be sent of party. As they didn't receive any attacking advantage after the foul you've only got one option and that is to bring it back and send the player off. Definitely unfortunate from a players...

Following this, bench side linos have a say in pens given in the other half

If a player gets hurt from a challenge it must be a red card
