Do you need the name. Don't you have a sheet with names > numbers?

Have a Fox 40 classic and a sonic blast cmg on a brass ring. If the temperature of the game rises, I switch to the sonic blast. Sometimes I also have it ready for corners if I have a feeling that thing might happen and I really need to sell my decision, whatever it is.

I only use one watch, never stop it. Only time I've stopped is in the case of severe injuries (at which time I am terrified of forgetting to restart). Has happened once, where a guy fell awkwardly and broke his arm. Other than that, I add time based on substitutions, time wasting and injuries...

I still haven't received my stuff. I am giving up on that guy. Too bad, as the store had promise. Anyway, I'm looking to get some stuff that is not in your store at the moment. How do I send you my list of stuff I need? :-)

I have only seen the picture in the article, but I don't think that picture is conclusive evidence that the ball is not touching the line. To be sure you have to see the ball from a bird eye view. The base of the ball is not touching the line, but that doesn't mean it is outside.

Of course you can, but when the AR makes a total mess of a situation (like this one), prepare to suffer in the assessment. At least that is how it works in Norway. If your AR is not up to it, you are expected to pick up on obvious mistakes (like if the ball is played by a defender).

Foy should no doubt be able to pick this up. While it is the main responsibility of the AR, the ref can't totally forget about offsides. Also, the 4th official would have had to be in the perfect spot to see this, assuming he wasn't engaged with the benches.

Arm moved up towards the ball. Unnatural position. Penalty for me.

The players are employed by the clubs, but it is the TV deals from the premier league that indirectly pays much of their wages. I don't think it would be unfair if the PL referees' salaries where quadrupled. While 100K is well paid, it is probably less any other person involved in the PL week in...

I thought you allowed players to get away with everything in England. At least that is what it looks like when I watch the PL on TV here in Norway ;) I think the biggest problem when dealing with dissent is the examples being set at the top. It trickles down both to refs and players. Players...

Agreed, in these situations the ref should do the talking and the assistant share their opinions with the ref before cards are given (when players are not within earshot). I absolutely hate when assistants are participating in discussions with the players, let the ref be the teams voice, he is...

Once, when I refereed a pre season game on march 8th, both teams were particularly moany I said: "Guys, you are taking this International Womens' day way too seriously. Stop moaning". Got a good laugh. Would never have said it in an official game.

Wanted the all weather write-on cards for when Norway is, well Norway. Didn't see them in your store. If I decide to go for the card stickers instead after my comprehensive trials this pre-season, I will know where to restock from. (I have geeky tendencies when it comes to gadgets so I will...

Yeah, I know any alcohol based product will work. However, the nail polish remover requires two components, the remover and paper. The swabs are self contained in that way, open the tiny pocket and it is ready to use. Anyway, I found out that the alcohol swabs are basically what doctors use...

I guess the raindeer connection from the UK to Norway is buggy... ;-)

In Norway, during the off-season, we have snow and sometimes intense cold. When refing pre season matches in January - March we will use long John's under the shorts with the socks pulled up on top and wool sports underwear, but we never cover up the kit. Looks better and we need the pockets...

What are peoples experience with refsworld? I really want to like them, as they have some truly innovative products and do have a refs point of view in their product line-up. However, I have placed a few orders there and the shipping takes forever. Once (if) it gets to me the products in the...

I use Garmin Forerunner 910XT, which is a bit expensive, but well worth it for me. Here it what a typical (2nd half of a) game looks like once I have uploaded the activity: http://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/580588780

So, what are peoples' experience with the skins? I have just gotten mine, unfortunately it is off-season here in Norway. I tried to write on them with a power tank, but it didn't work well. Pencil seems better.

To people who use the power tank pen, where do you keep it? I usually keep my pen in my left shirt pocket, using the clip to hold it there. when I tried the power tank pen the last two matches of the season (I'm refereeing in Norway), it fell out both times. It is relatively heavy, and the...
