The Ref Stop

Penalty goalkeeper 'protest'

They did make a big update when they brought in new codes for team official misconduct.
Also when they changed C2 to with and without sin-bin.

So they have made updates just decided not to bother updating the C1 codes.
 
The Ref Stop
After over a decade on this forum it all makes sense now.

So very often when we talked about PIADM many English referees thought it was a mandatory caution. It is dangerous to have a USB code called Dangerous Play. Reckless play mades much more sense.

Similar to "handball". Many English referees think every handball is a caution. We have handball as a code but we don't have SPA!

That list is outdated and creates more problems than it solves.
I've been moaning about this for 10 years. It was immediately obvious in my early days after qualifying... this list is completely inconsistent with the book

Even the observers over here seem oblivious to this fact. I have to bite my tongue in debriefs when we have to agree on which codes to use for sanctions.
The book is opaque enough without adding extra layers of confusion on top. I don't even know what value the codes are to the English FA. They can't be of any value given that they're nonsense anyway
And yet, we get on about pundits not knowing the rules... Our own rule codes are b0ll0cks FGS!

Can't you move to these shores, get a job with the FA and sort it all out. Then represent the FA at IFAB, then kick FIFA off the board, tear up the book and start again?

And then, on the seventh day . . .? 😁
