    Refsix Pro

    Tried my best to search for this answer to no avail. There's lots of opinions on the app, but is anyone a subscriber to Refsix Pro? Just wanted to hear some thoughts on whether it's worth £50? From what I can work out, the majority of perks aren't going to be of any use to me Video replay...

    JPL - thoughts?

    Thoughts on the JPL? I tried to search and "JPL" is too short to trigger the search. Searching Junior Premier League returned a few results mainly from 2020 - 2021 and the reviews weren't too complimentary. Has it improved since the 2020's? Is this league worth officiating in?

    Forest v Wolves

    I imagine the consensus would be it's harsh/soft but can see why it's given. Correct, this wouldn't be overturned because the referee hasn't made a mistake. It's a subjective decision as to whether the movement of the offender is natural and is in relation to the on-field situation. If the...

    Forest v Wolves

    Ridiculous comment You only need to look at the Rice red card thread to see the spectrum of different opinions

    Rice red card

    This is the only answer required. There's far too much 'whataboutery' in the arguments against Rice receiving a booking. What about Pedro kicking the ball away? Probably not enough in it for Kavanagh to book him, it was a kick out of frustration and Arsenal weren't ready to restart the game...

    Forest v Wolves

    Neither are penalties for me, however, both would've been given penalties in the early days of VAR where everything was a penalty. If the first one gets given as a penalty then the second one has to, and then we have a season where 100 penalties get given because the ball touched the arm. It...

    Rice red card

    It's not turning a blind eye, it's using common sense as an official and not being overly "busy" Brighton were gaining very little advantage by taking the ball 2 - 3 yards from the orginal position of the foul. You'd have a long 90 minutes if you insisted on the ball being in the exact...

    Rice red card

    agree it’s inconsistent and agree it’s a booking But it’s one that is very rarely punished. How often do we see a player running the ball out of play and booting it 10 rows back? Time wasting is far too subjective but I’ve put on another post that the multiple balls around the pitch may be...

    Rice red card

    Addressed it in the first line of my original post I agree it’s a booking. Playing devils advocate Kavanagh may have deemed Pedro as not delaying the restart, especially considering the amount of balls that are now placed around the pitch these days. For what it’s worth, Raya should’ve been...

    Rice red card

    Surely it can’t be both A shocker would imply that he made a mistake

    Rice red card

    Rice had no reason to touch the ball in that situation—and he shouldn’t have. The Brighton player set a perfect trap, and Rice fell for it, hook, line, and sinker. By getting involved, Rice forced Kavanagh to make a decision. Once Rice delayed the restart by kicking the ball away, Kavanagh had...

    Rice red card

    Kavanagh's mistake was not booking Pedro earlier in the game. However, in isolation, the incident with Rice is a clear booking for delaying the restart. Arsenal fans and pundits might argue that it's harsh or not in the spirit of the game, but the responsibility lies solely with Declan Rice. He...

    Appointments

    This is a two-part question, and I’ll do my best not to upset any fellow members or appointment secretaries. While I know these questions are best directed at the secretaries, getting a response from them has been challenging, to say the least. 1. What happens if you’re registered with...

    Refereeing Course Cost

    Shropshire £160 / Sussex £150 / London £140 / Amateur FA £135 / Surrey £140 / Hertfordshire £135 (last season) It is just me, or is this cost for the course just a bit too much? I hesitated before posting this, considering the costs of facilities, two trainers, and the provided equipment...

    Fits the qualifying criteria for reckless in my opinion.

    NED V ENG Euro SF

    I don't disagree because in law it is correct But it wouldn't be given in 99% of games, right from the Dog and Duck league up to the World Cup However, it seems the 1% has been acheived tonight. Even the bias media are shocked at it's award

    Level 7 Debut Season

    Just wanted to say that I am in the same position as you, but I completed the training games last season and attended the qualification/sign off evening which confirmed progression to Level 7 status before the end of the season. But I am still a trainee referee on the FA website. I have chased...

    Goalkeeper sent off in Penalty Shoot Out

    I'm sure the more experienced will correct me, but cards are reset for penalty shootouts, as we saw recently with Aston Villa's Martinez. So you wouldn't award a second yellow card. However, to answer your question, I believe in the event that a goalkeeper is dismissed, then an outfield player...
