Hi all, I applied for promotion last year and didn’t fulfill my games due to work and my son playing alternate days each week. I have 20 games over the 2 years that would qualify but will struggle to get the remainder in this year. There are no Saturday leagues really local to me and the...

Looking for a bit of advice here. Had a fairly competitive game, threatened to boil over in patches but didn’t. Had to sinbin one player for dissent, warned him and then binned. Post game he came to shake my hand and then asked how long I’d played in the second half. I told him I cleared my...

Hi all, What kind of fee do you charge for pre season? Just to cover mileage or standard match fee? Thanks in advance

Hi all, I’ve been assigned to a league cup semi final, I’ve never been an official AR before. Any tips or advice would be great. I’ve had a read through some previous posts but just wondered if anything had changed since then. Thanks

Had 3 games called off for waterlogged pitches this weekend and looks like may have 3 called off this weekend too. Meant to be having my first observation this weekend (previous one on postponed game already), and with working shifts may struggle to fit my games in by the cut off period. Looking...

Anyone selling the older Nike shirt in long sleeve in a large? Thanks in advance

Does anyone use a Garmin watch with Refsix? I've got a Forerunner 425, but that only supports the lite version so only use it for the timer function but looking at a new one with a touchscreen to use for full match record and wondered if anyone had any experience with them and their...

Hi all, Any tips on how to maintain the patrol path width. I always find myself being too central. I always try to make the ‘lazy s’ but often find myself central. Any advice greatly appreciated

With all the bad press around, thought I’d share a story from today. Horrific conditions but a great game of football, couple of early dissents that away captain helped with and no more issues with either player. One caution for a handball on the floor but all players came and shook my hand...

Anyone got any large kit they are getting rid of for sale? Thanks Brett

Hi all, Do you know if this is the same as the black? It like it but it says anthracite/grey as the colour? Thanks

Hi all, Do you charge the same amount for a friendly as you would in a league? I’ve had a team offer me £20 whereas I said it would be £25 due to mileage and they said they’d been paying all refs £20 for friendlies and would source elsewhere if I couldn’t do it for that. I told them to source...

Just wondered if it’s recommended to just stick to one or to ref in multiple? My Saturdays will be the same league but on Sundays there are about 4 different leagues in 3 CFA’s within about 15 miles. Is it better to stick to one or is it okay to have a go round a few local ones? TIA.

Been asked to do a game on Sunday for the team I’m signed on for (have only played once 20 mins last Sunday), the league has sin bins in place so need to get my head around that. Any tips on transitioning from youth to OA football? Thanks in advane

Are they to be avoided or are they okay to be in? There’s a pitch about 2 minutes from where I live that has one and thought it may be worth a look. Don’t know where we stand regarding affiliations that’s all.

I've been looking at the promotion criteria for L7-6 for next year potentially and the information from Notts FA says you need to attend a fitness assessment. Does anyone know what this entails so I know what to be working towards? I've seen the 5/4 one with the 12 minute run but can't find...

So I’ve got an under 12s game then under 15s game straight after. Any tips on how to approach them? First time I’ll have done one after the other. The first one is a 9.30 so up early and a good breakfast but any tips on keeping sharp for both? Thanks
