Okay the words 'highly unfair' weren't used :P Id consider the reaction reasonably similar to Chelsea to get Ibrahimovic sent off in the champions league last season, explained my decision and told them to go away. After that they claimed I 'lost match control' but that's just another way of...

I told him that both of them ran into each other, would have been highly unfair to give a foul either way - his frustrations presumably led from the fact that a goal was scored 10 seconds later.

Id do the same again every single time but I must have fallen foul for the 'player reactions' problem!! :P

In regards to neutral AR's, have your senior AR in between the two teams in the centre circle and the other on the goal line to watch to see if the keeper comes off his line

Hi all, First game back after summer which resulted in a shock victory in the leagues equivalent of the fa cup. Quick question here: A player takes exception to a 'challenge' made (no problems with the challenge - just where they ran into each other) which resulted in a goal for the...

To be fair, the tournament organisers all said I did the right thing, my dealing with it was 'faultless' - they made their money so all was good :P

There's no sarcasm intended in that title at all. Oh, and now I've hit you with a double whack of sarcasm, lucky you! Started the season off with a 5 a side tournament with a sin bin for 3 minutes if given a yellow. First three games, there were no issues at all. Had a laugh with the players...

Sorry if this is considered to be a thread from the dead, but it refers to your location within the Essex County.

Their aiming to 'school' me with all the league stuff like the admin and helping out the clubs, refs and all that thing. They said they'll try and get me doing something like that at some point.

Does anyone here have experience of being a division officer? I've just been appointed division officer for a new U21 league and was wondering if anyone knew how much work it takes?

Yeah they do - they've changed the 7-6 criteria now and need 5 games on the line either on the Olympian, Essex senior or Ryman U21. I know this from being on the promotion scheme itself :P

Be careful Haywain. A comment like that could see the mods become unhappy and you could receive a red card for offinabus yourself :eek:;)

Caution to entering player and disallow the goal for me. But whether I book them or just tell them to go away in an actual match is another question with many different variables.

How many of you have experienced a 0-0 draw at sunday league level? I had my first one today - couldn't quite believe it!!

Once I was 'reported' for giving out too many cards. I gave 4 during the whole game - 2 yellows for a bad challenge 1 yellow for dissent and a red for OFFINABUS. The team that threatened to report me had 2 of those cards, neither of the challenges - just the ones for being mouthy. Absolute plums!!

Yeah its Neil Harris isn't it? Enjoy it pal!!

In Padfoots defence, read the OP @Anthony - Jake said that the manager said 'he's a s*** ref'. In my book thats swearing about a referee so therefore, misconduct report.

Emailed him last night, I think its good that referees are finally able to have their say in the respect campaign because we are the least respected figure in the game (other than the honest CAR or the honest club ref!)

You've opened up a real issue in the LOTG with the keeper bit! Not sure about IFK because just realised its striking an opponent. Never mind!! If the ball was outside box its an FK - contact is outside the penalty area.

Your harder questions: 1) That's violent conduct, red card and an indirect free kick. 2) That's handball and you give a card or no card depending on the position and context of the game and current attack. :)
