Cheers for the reply and probs not full on tactical fouls more just little sly tackles that aren’t worthy of a caution for just that tackle but could have carded for PI after 3rd one. Shot myself in foot as didn’t card for them and then let them get away with one where one player tried to...
Really tough match today. Reffed home team before and no real issues, game kicks off late tackle within the first 10 seconds from away side which already made me think it was gonna be a tough game. After 3 or 4 tactical fouls from away team in the first ten mins I warn the captain next player...
Can’t even begin to imagine how badly that could kick off with the large amount of supporters. Would hate to be the ref for that one but probs at the same time would love the challenge
Like to know people’s thoughts on this tackle personally it’s a cracking tackle but can see the argument for SFP on this one, personally reckon both sides would be more disappointed with a pen being given here imo.
Not sure if I’ve posted this in the right category but thought I’d share this video. Some typical Sunday league behaviour towards the ref, Not surprised tbh with the amount of spectators there. Has anyone on here reffed a SE Done match as get the feeling it’d be quite tough with how many...
I’ve just turned 17 and have been doing this for almost 3 years and some key advice I’d say is always appear calm and in control even if you aren’t, stand tall and show strong body language (hand signals, strong whistle etc) and have complete confidence in your decisions publicly anyway. If the...
Never been quite certain about when to implement DOGSO but on Sunday I had an U12 match 4-3 with about 2 minutes to go, corner comes in clear handball on the line give the penalty and send off the player, penalty taker scored and match ended 4-4 but afterwards manager of side who had player sent...
Not sure if this is the right section to post this in but basically what happened was yesterday I reffed an U16 game Reds v Blues. I’m one of those referees who lets quite a lot of physical contact go but I think yesterday probably just let too much go as almost all pushes and barges I just let...
Very clear red card imo,the inconsistency in VAR is ridiculous. For example Son was sent off for something similar but Maguire wasn’t. And I remember in the Fa Cup at Arsenal v Leeds Lacazette wasn’t sent off for kicking out. Also on the whole thought Coote was poor tonight some strange...
When I saw the challenge live in real time I immediately thought red but seeing it again not so sure as from one angle looks like a clean tackle but from another looks like he’s out of control so can see why Stroud went red. But he must have had some help from either the 4th official or the AR...
Think I must be one of a few referees who never played football for a team before starting refereeing as never really had the confidence or ability to play for a team. Started at 14 first game was December 2018 and after a tough first weekend thought about packing it in. But gave it another week...
Know this is quite a few months away and football may not even be back. In October in turn 16 and was wondering if it would be possible to try and apply for promotion to level 6? But at the same time was thinking that it might be best to get some experience doing open age games before applying?
Completely condone racial abuse on all levels but can’t be sure how the FA can ban Kiko without complete proof. Also typical FA timing right on the eve of a lunchtime Yorkshire derby.
Him and Oliver are by the far the best and have been for about two years now. Hopefully he has no plans to retire soon is consistently spot on with the big decisions.
