I agree with this too a point, but what one referee might tolerate one week, another referee next week might not.... and that then will cause problems for the following referee in the next game. I have had players say to me " Are you really going to send that booking in ref, the last referee...

What is the point in breaking down this conversation into different scenarios? is it till i am proven wrong? or you are proven right? come on referees start acting like referees and not like a pundit from Match of the Day.......

You have lost the plot in this conversation, we are talking about a player in a match whom falls within the Laws of the Game. I wouldn't expect an assessor to talk to me like that, and i would have polite words of a different nature for him/her too.

I wouldn't class "bloody" as a swear word....

Oh my word Columbo you want your monies worth don't you........ he's giving me dissent and i'm giving him a yellow.... sorted ! nip it in the bud he won't do it again later when he's not happy with another one of my descisions

It maybe calm but audible, but it is still dissent thus YC , maybe later in the game he might get a bit braver knowing he got away with that one (if i didn't YC)...

Player gives me grief like that..... Yellow Player includes a swear word...... Red

If a player says " that ref is f****** crap" to a team mate.. and he knows damn well i'm within earshot... and believe me they know, than i'm giving him a red card....

I have gone to the list of players before on the Whole Game and the name has not been there, sometimes the system is not updated in time, put the name in manually, put in an extraordinary report stating you asked the manager to confirm his name but refused to.Keep hold of your match sheet in...

nor did i.....

OP states " can only really play the ball backwards towards his deep defence. He does so" ........this would tell me he played the ball to his defence, suppose one would have to be there to see if there was intent...... but judging by the text given i'd still not give it as a back pass

The OP said " A maroon player inside the blues half is under pressure and can only really play the ball backwards towards his deep defence. He does so but hits it hard enough for the ball to go all the way back to the keeper. "so for me it was not a back pass to the keeper, i would not have...

Well, thankyou Doris my games postponed this weekend with waterlogged pitches, :-(

:-) i know that, he was waffling about instead of all being separate, wants them to be kind of networked together blah! blah!

Have now done my 3 hour mentor seminar, learnt some different aspects of mentoring newly qualified referees, should be interesting once it goes national.......

Yeah, he's in the Sun paper... and now they're saying he might have broken FA rules ??????

This is what i would expect a captain to do, isn't that what we expect of him? Within the laws of the game of course......
