One of my first games I went to acknowledge keepers and assistants and by the time I got to say ready to assistants, I forgot to arrange for them (CAR).
So hastily went to my bag and sought out two assistants.
About to kick off the game again and some kids had came from the park next door and nicked a corner flag and started berating the keeper with it.
Now, in hindsight having had no assistants at the beginning meant the kids attacking the keeper before game started was a good thing as didn't have to stop play.
More recently I went to a step 6 game for an evening fixture and the referee had forgotten his shorts.
The home club found some spare black shorts for him but they were keeper shorts complete with the old padding you used to see in them.
I agreed to allow the middle ref to wear my shorts whilst I wore the padded ones.
Since then, I've always had both of my kits on me at all times.
Thankfully, his father lived locally and had a pair of shorts and they arrived as we had just buzzed the players before the match. Quick change of shorts and we were ready.
He said he gave me a couple extra marks for the offer of my shorts as he said it was great team work. I said he needed to look the part in the middle to sell any decision he gives.
