    goalkeeper parrying the ball

    I would say yes. I think that it is different to the scenario where he parries a shot which bounces to the ground and he then picks it up. I think it would be dependant on the amount of time between the parry and picking it up and what other actions have taken place in between. Don't forget...

    Lookalikes

    In my day job I had occasion to ask a young driver his name. He replied Tom Jones. Obviously I thought I was being funny when I said, "My, my, my.". However, he had the last laugh when, quick as a flash he said, " It's not unusual."

    Achilles tendon

    I bet you haven't noticed the Achilles though.

    Open Age High foot or short person

    This, for me, is the issue. If the player goes in low,causing a danger to themselves and others, they get penalised for dangerous play. If they get kicked, the other player gets penalised. That doesn't seem fair.

    My First Assessment.

    Well having seen the posts on here I thought low 70s so I was more than a little surprised with 78. :)

    My First Assessment.

    Well I got my first assessment back from a couple of weeks ago and I have to say I was really pleased. What did surprise me, after reading posts on here, was that my score was included. See what you think. 1. Application of Law: Your application of the laws of the game was good and...

    Insanity

    Obviously illegally downloading from sites such as utorrent, pirate bay, etc is piracy and, if caught, could result in a hefty sentence. I can't speak for utorrent bit piratebay definitely has it. Thankfully this scurrilous site has been closed down in the UK. Although some ne'er do wells have...

    Circumvention

    Yeah. That's what I meant:rolleyes:

    Red or Pen ?

    If it's DOGSO it has to be red. If it happened outside the box then DFK.

    Circumvention

    Oooh. Good exam question. Im going for where the circumvention happened as that I'd the offence.

    Goal kicks

    Blimey. Don't start with that one. We have enough debate over a moving ball!

    Cards on Profiles

    Pierluigi makes a valid point. But I shouldn't think refs are particularly "card happy." Each one I issue saddens me a little as it means that players are not playing fairly.

    Late, not bad, tackle?

    I had an ex-professional give it the old "I've been playing football" bit. I warned him about holding at a corner. He was stood in front of the player with both arms out behind him at a 45 degree angle. "You're joking ref. I've been doing it like this for the last thirty years." "Well...

    GPS watch - garmin forerunner 220

    I got a Garmin 405cx on e-bay for about £65 with HRM. If you are willing to hang around and lurk on there you can get some really good bargains. The only thing is that I don't use it as a watch, but as it came with extra Velcro straps I wrap it around my bicep under my shirt sleeve. Yesterday...

    Proposed Changes for 2014/15?

    Give them choice. The option should be "up to ten yards closer to the goal". If they want it they can have it. If it doesn't suit, that's up to them.

    Misconduct Report?

    As has been said above, unless they are really bang out of order, ignore the supporters. You are never going to keep everyone happy. You have no say over supporters. If needs be, speak with the manager and remind him/her of his obligation to keep his supporters in check. This could include...
