    Vanishing spray

    Is vanishing spray permitted I the FA Vase? I didn't think it was but I saw it in use yesterday so presumably it is?

    UK promotion

    So i moved over to the Channel Island this summer as a level 4 and I know that I will have to revert back to a level 5 should I still be here next year... However, I have met a referee over here who has previously refereed in the Egyption 2nd division and is hoping to be able to referee at at...

    Guernsey

    Well that's another season chalked off and due to me accepting a job offer on Guernsey I will start next season refereeing on the island. Obviously I've emailed the RDO and I'll contact leagues etc, but I'm wondering if anyone on here has any experience or knowledge of football on the island...

    What wpuld you do here?

    Had an identical incident in the exact same area of the pitch in my step 5 game yesterday. Attacker didn't catch the ball but raised his arm to stop it going out of play thinking he was off the FOP (he wasn't by several yards). I gave a DFK, no card. What would you do?

    Merseyside Sunday League referee strike

    So following on from a junior league in the same area postponing all matches for a week due to ref abuse, an adult Sunday League has no games going ahead for "the foreseeable future" due to referees staging a strike. Personally I commend them as a group for standing against the ever increasing...

    Added Time

    I've got the week off so inevitably I'm spending some of it on the couch watching the World Cup. One thing that's struck me is the surprising amount of added time being played. Forget the 14 mins in the first half of the England game, that was obviously for the lengthy stoppages for the keeper...

    The big match.

    So I'm sat here waiting for my partner to get ready (I could be some time). On BT Sport is the big match revisited 1975. Its fascinating to see how football, and in particular refereeing has changed down the years. Currently Coventry are playing Arsenal and there's a corner kick. The ref is...

    Sub caution

    Semi final middle today. I have cautioned a substitute (who never came of to the FOP) for dissent. First time for me. On whole game does this go down as a regular caution (obviously not a sin bin) or a non playing caution? Thanks in advance

    Liverpool-Inter

    Watching the Liverpool v Inter game. Ridiculous tackles for Sanchez and 2 easy yellows make a cherry. But what really strikes me is Lahoz's AR on the near side. He runs the line whilst being several yards on the pitch when play is on the other side. Also, when there was a potential scuffle he...

    Yesterday

    2 teams at the foot of the County League yesterday. Big game on a very sticky pitch with plenty of wind about. For 93 mins I know I've reffed it really well. 3 yellows, no bad tackles,in complete control. Last minute (away team 1-0 up), away corner is headed clear and a shot comes in which hits...

    Your game

    Quick post to detail my games this weekend. Feel free to jump on and vent/discuss/details yours. Saturday, step 6 middle (my 2nd middle at that level). Two top half teams very close in the table. A real stop start game on a very sticky pitch and with a strong wind making passing football almost...

    MOAS

    Quick question for those who use MOAS. Its pretty new to me and ive never been shown what to do with it so I'm just learning as we go. When you confirm officials after the game, do we enter the names of the ARs at that point or is that done by the appointee?

    County Cup Rules

    I have a County Cup semi final tomorrow so I thought I'd check the substitution rules. Rule: In open age competitions, a team shall be permitted to use three substitutes in any one game from three players nominated to the Referee prior to the commencement of the game, except to replace a player...

    Incident today

    Well today I had my first incident in the middle where there's been an accusation of racism. Slightly bizzare in nature how it unfolded if truth be told. I'm looking at the play in one half of the pitch and here a bit if commotion behind me so I then around and see two players arguing with each...

    City v Bruges

    Bizzare refereeing from the Romanian referee. Theres been 3 or 4 times that theres been a delayed flag raised for offside with the goalkeeper in possession looking to start an attack or the same from a defender in time and space and yet he always gives the offside as opposed to letting play go...

    Deaf football

    So I did my first game of deaf football today. A cracking game to be fair. 2-2 with the away side missing a penalty in injury time. It's an interesting experience. I reffed with a whistle in one hand and a flag in the other, which I raised as well as blowing the whistle for obvious reasons...

    Flags

    NWCFL

    Step 5-6 League asking for level 7 officials to join the league as ARs. It seems that the lack of officials is starting to bite the supply leagues now (if it wasn't already)

    Todays game

    After a very delayed flight back from Tenerife, I got home at 3.30am and went to the ground for a men's Sunday League game, 10pm ko. Cracking match, it's 4-2 with 88 mins gone, not an incident in the game, it's been as good as it gets. The away team score a screamer from 35 yards out and push...
