I hear they are giving away a can of spray with each purchase of a coloured referee shirt this month.
Free shot this one - purely for humour value. Well played

Just like the referees who think they are at the Nou Camp...I mean for those players who think they're playing at the Nou Camp.....they'd love it. Makes it more proper.
Got agree, it's a ploy to add something of "interest" into otherwise dull games.any referee who needs a can of shaving foam to control a free kick should not be refereeing
I get asked pretty much every Sunday where it is!
God I hate this from players.
Do they really think I've never heard that before?
Sh*t chat, player, sh*t chat.
Or the perennial players' favourite at the pre match kit / jewellery check ...God I hate this from players.

Just as an aside - how often is encroachment actually an issue??
In the games I've done I've only ever had the issue twice (both in the same game, resulting in a caution for main offender each time) and must have had hundreds of ceremonial free kicks over the course of these games.
That said you've all seen free kick taker quality at our level - a wall is rarely required never mind wall trying to gain advantage by moving forwards.
Your response should be, "No mate I haven't brought my tweezers or magnifying glass" or as my friend Jane says, "Let's focus on the big stuff and not talk about the little things today eh?"Or the perennial players' favourite at the pre match kit / jewellery check ...
'I've left my c**k ring in ref, do you need to check that'
My stock response to the ****ring player "bants" is always the same; fair play mate, if you found a ring small enough to fit you, I am happy for you to wear it"Your response should be, "No mate I haven't brought my tweezers or magnifying glass" or as my friend Jane says, "Let's focus on the big stuff and not talk about the little things today eh?"
..and still, they are allowed to, in the top leagues every week...?any referee who needs a can of shaving foam to control a free kick should not be refereeing
