As with most discussions on here, everyone has their own opinions and experiences, I personally enjoy Vets games and get allocated to them every weekend. I'd echo the above, they can be challenging to ref for a variety of reasons and I certainly wouldn't have wanted to get involved in them when I was younger. The standard and quality can vary greatly, from those who are clearly still hungover (or occasionally still a little tipsy) to those who have spent many years playing at a decent level and are now just too old for OA leagues. It still makes me chuckle when you see one team going through a thorough warm up, and the other arguing about who's playing where over a can of Monster and a roll up 5mins before kick off!
