I was recently asked by a schools coach to referee a sixth form schools match in a league that I can view on the internet.
Having had some disciplinary issues during the match - mass con with one red and two yellows, I went on to WGS to process the cards, only to find that neither team was shown in the league drop down.
So, I asked my CFA who have advised that both teams are unaffiliated and therefore I cannot record the cards. The CFA are saying that I should not have accepted the match, but I'm concerned that schools are being allowed to play at all if they are not affiliated - and don't really understand why they wouldn't be?
Apart from not taking these matches in future, is there anything else I can do? Surely the CFA should be ensuring that all teams in this league are affiliated?
