Hello all,
I've been arriving 30 mins ish early for youth matches but my appointments chap said I should arrive 45-60mins early for the adult matches. I arrive in my kit and ready to inspect the pitch, brief the teams and brief the ARs - last week was just subs doing it so I couldn't brief them.
What time do you arrive and what else should I be doing with my time? I warm up as I inspect the pitch.
Also...for the pre-match handshake, does the home team always line up in a stadium facing the tunnel on the same side eg the left?
