    Video technology

    This won't work in football - as soon as that happens the referee has undermined his authority and lost all credibility. On a more general note, I am against video technology in football as it will slow the game down - in rugby there are many breaks in play so this is implemented naturally...

    Nike Kit

    I agree with what has been said above - Umbro tends to come out quite small relative to Nike, and so I'd go a size down transferring from Umbro to Nike (I went from Large to Medium and the size was perfect).

    Neil Warnock

    With regards to the second yellow card, he did not even argue that it shouldn't have been a card - merely that he thought the Chelsea players influenced him. He had a top game and got all the big decisions right in my view.

    Man City v Tottenham - 4 penalties and a red card!

    I thought Moss did well on the red card - he waited to see if the ball would be cleared to determine whether it was DOGSO - it wasn't, so a red card was the correct decision.

    Should you blow up for full time at a corner kick?

    A tip - if at half time always blow when the ball is in play rather than when it has gone off for a goal kick, for example, because the chances are that you'll be the one who has to run to get the ball!

    FIFA 15

    As I expected, if you play an all Premier League match on FIFA 15, the officials wear the new Nike referee kit with the Premier League logo and, of course, the EA Sports arm patches

    Rooney Red Card

    14 to 1. I guess I have to admit I'm wrong on this one!

    Rooney Red Card

    Surely it would have to be EF rather than VC as VC has to be off the ball and not involved in a tackle?

    Rooney Red Card

    I am amazed it has got to Sunday night and nobody has created a thread about this. I was surprised when Rooney was red carded and even more surprised when Van Gaal backed up the referee. Am I the only one who thought it should have been yellow?

    Players standing in front of ALL free kicks

    Speak to the captain, tell him if it happens again, whoever it is, whether they've done it before or not they will be going in the book. They have been warned, they can have no arguments.

    Pet hates

    About refereeing or football generally? If the latter then without a doubt glory hunters, closely followed by time wasting.

    Advantage + Offside

    For me, in this situation, the point of no return (i.e. when you no longer pull it back) is when the attacker gains his composure and is in control and able to make a decision without being under pressure. If this was the case, offside.

    For Southend and Colchester it's on the Essex FA website so I would assume it's on your County FA website if you have no luck with what has been suggested above.
