How late can a challenge be?

[GraemeS]

"You've ruined the game ref" for the last three reds I've shown. All of which were being comfortable won by one side before the red and which went on to be won by the team that was winning at that point.

There are loads of shouts that I hate. Here are just a few:-

You've seen that. (Yes, that's why I blew my whistle)
There's two teams in this game. (Oh yes, thanks for clearing that one up)
You're killing us here. (Because I sent off your player for almost snapping someone in two)
Keep up with play ref. (Usually following a corner kick at the other end. I really must run faster)
You've given us nothing today. (I gave you a throw in a minute ago and that penalty you missed earlier!)

I could go on but I'm sure the rest of you have other ones.

"In the back ref" for every contested aerial duals - thats my number 1 pet hate.

"you gotta stop listening to their shouts ref!"

For offside that gets shouted for whether its on or off. Usually brush that 1off with "they are gunna call for it everytime, and so are you, so I can be accused of that all game. I make my own decisions, thank you."

'Handball' is another one I hate.
