Evening all Returning to the game after a year off and looking for a referee shirt that’s not going to cost an arm and a leg. If anybody is selling a shirt in Large or XL then let me know!

Hi Guys Selling off some of my unwanted gear. Pictures below. Let me know if interested.

So after a very enjoyable season I’ve applied to do both the 7-6 promotion pathway and the 4W to 3W promotion pathway next season. Has anybody done both in the same season, and if so, do you have any advice? It’d be great to have advice from anyone that has done any of the above!

Looking for a Nike short sleeve match. Ideally in Large if anybody is selling one?

Hi guys I’ve got some touchline flags that I’ve had for ages now. Somehow one of the AR’s managed to lose on of the ends that keeps the flags on and attached. Does anybody know if there is a way to buy these ‘ends’ to save me having to buy new flags?

Feeling dejected and let down after today. Need to get it off my chest so I can focus on tomorrow’s game. Was on the line today in a game that finished 1-0. The goal was scored from a header following a corner. The ball went in and I flagged to bring the referee over. As the header was made...

Evening all Did a line last Wednesday and in the 90th minute felt an excruciating pain in the left hand side of my left knee. Managed to hobble on and get through the final few minutes. It remained painful to walk on for the rest of the evening and into the next day. The pain then went away...

I’m sure everyone has a slightly different way but I just wondered how you all apply your different badges? My kit has a heat applied FAMOA badge but I also have games where I’ll need my Somerset County badge on there too. I’m not in favour of buying a separate shirt with the county badge on...

Evening Guys I just wondered how people conducted the boot check and jewellery check before the game, especially where there are club assistants. Are you doing this before the teams come out for the game or whilst they are warming up?

Hi Guys Not a new referee as such…I qualified back in 2012 when I was 15. I referred in Somerset and Hampshire until I was 19 where I gave up due to an incident in a Sunday league match. Now at the old age of 25 I am returning to the game. I’ve got a game on the line next Saturday an an u18...
