reffing expectations v reward v enjoyment

[Kent Ref]

Again, down to individual leagues. On the league that I'm heavily involved in 10 of the 11 committee members are referees or ex-referees, and the other one is the wife of an ex-referee.

Disciplinary hearings have always been a bit of a lottery. I can remember my first one in London where the player and club told a complete pack of lies, and as they got the other team to back them up the charge was thrown out. It is what it is is, the referee is just a witness and not in any way accused, if you were a witness for a crown court case and the accused was acquitted would you feel aggrieved?

I'll assume you now concede that CFAs CAN set caps. Post 8 seems very conclusive that they cannot. Most people apologise when they are wrong and misinformed.

The answer to your question, even though it's nothing to do with what i have said, is yes. If i was a witness for the prosecution and the accused got off i would be aggrieved. I don't really understand any relevance to my points though.

I was highlighting how refs are now on trial - even though 99% of the time they are not the accused.

Out of interest do you agree with my 9,12 and 3 o'clock idea?

Have a lovely Sunday. I'm seeing my grandkids, which is always entertaining.
