No not feelings but safety yes and that is the point they make the situation feel unsafe.

Side note scrapping the government currently not a terrible idea
I’d accept 100 tweets calling players cheats or defending bad decisions if refsupport helped even one referee each year who is a victim of abuse or assault. As it stands they help a lot more than one.
Feel unsafe = feelings.
They are not making it unsafe. Have you any example where the actions/posts/words of refsupport have directly had an impact on a matter of safety?
Yes my situation on Saturday a reference to them was used by the club and inflamed the situation it is currently under investigation by CFA so won’t go into detail.
Well i'm sorry to hear that. Would be great, once it has been through the judicial process to share your experience
Sorry that happened but if RSUK didn’t exist they’d simply cite some other thing they’d seen on social media that werk
It wasn’t just sighting mate made mention directly of them and something they caused.
Sure, but I don’t blame Michael Oliver when one of his mistakes is thrown in my face mid game. Because next week it’ll be whatever new referee moment is going around Twitter, sometimes it’s RSUK and 9/10 times the referee is correct but players and coaches just don’t understand.
Slightly different situation after the outcome I will give some context.
A bit harsh (but I don’t know the facts and nor should I for the reason you previously mentioned) & that’s like saying the same thing as the injured player said in the ambulance from your first posted attachment earlier. It was not the Referee who placed the injury upon the players leg & Ref Support were not even at your game. The club concerned have a duty of care towards any official who are at their ground (& when playing away) & should not be holding this against you from something they have read/seen from anywhere eg Ref Support (though as we often know these days, easier said than done).
As I say the club actually kind of had a point but as it’s linked to a incident prior I can’t elaborate but this account has certainly got some responsibility.
