4 matches in 6 days, another one tomorrow making 5 in 8 - all different competitions as well which is good.
AR (Last minute replacement) last night on U23 game.
Young referee 5 (Going for 4) had a good half I thought. Home team 2 up - 1 from a (to me, but not in my half) nailed on pen, and 1 after a challenge on GK ( Again from my view no foul on GK)
Half time - manager approaches us as we walk off 'You're having a shocker ref, never a pen and that was a foul on goalkeeper. I saw you on Sunday and you were poor then as well'
What can you say to that, ref went with 'Thanks for that. Both teams and assessor seemed happy with me last Sunday'
Manager replied 'You were poor to me'
Game finished 2-0 - obviously no hand shakes from away management and only a few players.
Referee said afterwards he didn't really enjoy game - no major incidents, but lots of moaning from the away team.
These evening games are not local in this league both referee and myself did close on 2 1/2 hours travelling to get there and back - but no one ever gives that a thought I bet!
