Under 16 game yesterday morning, blue vs White, two teams that will inevitably be at the top of the table come the end of the season so everyone was expecting a closely contested game and it certainly didn't disappoint. White go 1-0 up before my first caution to blue centre back "are you blind ref" maybe pal, but I'm not deaf, have a yellow thank you. White go 2-0 up before half time with blue pulling it back to 2-2 with 10 minutes left. No real incidents of note so far but just had that feeling that something could happen, last minute blue corner is claimed by the keeper who sends a quick long ball up to the striker well inside the opponents half, sprint like mad to keep up and the striker is brought down in the penalty area, only a slight trip and he's heading away from goal so I awarded the penalty but felt it didn't warrant a caution. Blue left back wasn't best pleased with my decision "that's absolutely w**k ref" another caution for dissent. Penalty is scored and the game ends 3-2 to white. After the final whistle the keeper takes pop at me and earns a caution for dissent. As I'm walking to the car park after collecting my things he can't help himself "he was f*****g w**k" "we didn't lose because of them we lost because of him, he was s**t" so that earned him a misconduct report to go with the caution and fine.
Felt that overall I had quite a good game, blue's just weren't happy to be losing to a team they felt they should've beaten.
