    Political Logos

    Megalithics is one of my pet subjects Ciley and your last statement is factually incorrect ;) Over 1000 pyramids in the world and only 2 have any sort of hieroglyphics in them. The Egyptian ones certainly aren't mausoleums or built by slaves.... or built by Pharaohs!!!!... It will be...

    Political Logos

    The Bristol protests were aimed at an ex slave Trader, fair enough, most of us have moved on, but if you know your history there were white slave traders too in numerous countries. There were attacks in Liverpool too with regards Penny Lane after a chap in their history called Penny. Where does...

    Political Logos

    I'm not sure anyone is dismissing any anti-racism element to this but recent events have been overtook by thug elements (on both sides). BLM was actually started in 2013 https://blacklivesmatter.com/herstory/ . Football shouldn't be used to promote any organisation with political power...

    The fastest way to pass from Level 7 to Level 5

    Strangely you need to make mistakes to learn from them!!! Don't worry though, players make far more than a referee ever does...Be self critical, it won't always be a cakewalk!!! Players and managers will be kn0bs, you'll have bad days, its all a learning curve!!

    To my knowledge all ages can get it and pass it on equally, the older (50+) age thing kicks in for the severity and apparent death rate with other older health conditions chucked in!

    When the Cenotaph was besieged by the mob trying to burn it down last week, the police did nothing. Now it’s being protected by patriots and veterans they move in in full riot gear. Maybe “Defund the Police” will unité left and right in Britain?

    Seems that they are allowing BLM logos and taking a knee in the EPL return. Not condoning the events in the USA but shouldn’t football stand back from all this and continue to enforce the no political / cause rule. Ive BAME family and they are disgusted in recent events Involving BLM and others...

    Interesting Rugby Law Trial

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/52833173 The player is removed with the offence checked by the Television Match Official. If deemed a red card offence, the player doesn't return. If not, they return after 15 minutes. Maybe that would improve VAR...... It gives ample time for the VAR...

    Tips to improve my distance running?

    I remember when @Mintyref was in the peak of his training, his missus told him to run 2 mile a day...... 34 days later he somehow turned up at my gaff for a brew!!!

    Why would you possibly want promotion after only 3 games, you’ve proved nothing yet, head down and learn your new hobby. I did over 500 and was still learning at the end....

    Wanna be ref

    Yes, especially at the earliest levels, ignore the one feet on the ground stuff for example, as long as it’s something like then let them play, it’s supposed to be fun remember. Educate where you can....

    Appointment of not wanted referee

    Idiotic decision.... I used to love turning up at teams I’d had issues with, they had to get with the program or we continued to have financial casualties. It was amazing though how some nightmare teams did learn my ways and became a pleasurable experience eventually.

    don’t hide your cards if they are really really required. Educate if you can before spoiling people’s weekends... it’s not the World Cup!

    2020/2021 season registration. Wait?

    I wonder how many 'older' refs will jack it in in the meantime. aged 50+ referees are certainly putting themselves in more risk being around younger players who aren't tested anywhere near the levels of the SG! Certainly something to think about for 2021
