Adult game last night second v third bit of a tense game I knew both teams are vocal after past games with them both so knew I had to be on my game , the game went Ok there were always decisions there going to question even the most blatant fouls get questioned in the adult league I referee but nothing major from my view . Around 10 mins to go red plays long ball over the top yellow defender chasing jumps high on the turn using his arms to jump then I was convinced it hit his hand which slightly takes the ball a different direction I blow for handball ! this was to the bemusement of the yellow defenders one shouting “ he’s lost the plot “ a couple nearby reds didn’t say anything but I could tell they were surprised also ,I knew then I had made a mistake , I tried to put my case across coming over as though I had certainly seen the handball but I could see nobody was buying it and I could feel myself looking daft I then can’t wait for the game to end knowing the credibility I had I had probably just lost in a split second .
I froze to be honest I did think for a second of holding my hands up admitting to getting it wrong but did think if I did that I would look even more stupid and lose more match control .
Yes it certainly seems I messed up played on my mind all night any constructive advice would be certainly welcomed .
