Evening all,
Took a game on today, which was a women's open aged fixture. Game went ok with the exception of some women, whom I think was the secretary of the home team. After 80minutes with the home team losing 1-0 she shouts to me "your an f***ing joke ref" all because I didn't give a foul for her team. Bit surprised but as there was a young boy on the side lines aged about 3 or 4. I went over and said " do you think that's appropriate language in front of children - you need to think about the way you conduct yourself". Cue the end of the game, no match report form or match fees came over to me. The away team paid promptly but after waiting around for 15 minutes I left empty handed. I don't feel it my responsibity to chase people around the pitch so went home. I have informed the league and left it at that. Just wondered if this has happened to anyone else and what happened.
