    Back pass.

    I think I'm about to learn something here.... So are we saying that a deliberate movement to 'knee' the ball to your goalkeeper who then picks it up is NOT a IDFK?

    Herts FA were planning on launching the f2f part in April... although I'm not quite sure how they'll make that work given the restrictions. The Summer sounds like a more likely timeframe.

    I couldn't get the post-course survey to work - kept on re-setting and throwing me out.

    referee covers penalty with NO assistance.

    If that pen had been whacked against the left post, the ref would have been in the firing line for the rebound...

    Self Analysis

    I found this really useful to watch alongside your comments. Also liked the way you handled the player coming back on after the sin bin.

    I was concentrated on the DOGSO bit and went yellow card, penalty. Bottom of the class!

    Cheers @Harey - have downloaded and looks great (especially like the way it handles sin bin timings). My Fenix3 isn't touchscreen, so took me a while to work out how to change settings and options, but all good now. Can't wait to test it out in an actual game!

    My understanding is that a new look course with an online element and less of a requirement for face-to-face (but still some), will be rolled out from April. I'm in the same boat as the OP - booked on, cancelled.... waiting....

    My last ever observation

    That's impressive, stepped approach and a sin bin inside 6 minutes. Sounds like a nightmare game.

    DOGSO in the first minute

    Not a red for me. Covering defender was close enough to have played a part in the next phase. YC for me.

    PSG vs Istanbul

    Having watched, listened to and read a ton of stuff about this, I'm of the opinion that the 4O was not being racist in his comments. He was merely using a word in his language to describe the individual he wanted to identify. Now if using the word "black" to describe someone is seen as...

    Junior/Youth No red card?

    In his mid 20s I reckon. I didn't ask him though 😂 The rest of his performance looked like he knew what he was doing, so I don't think he was brand new qualified. It was just this one incident and his words afterwards that I found frustrating.

    Junior/Youth No red card?

    I coach an U15 team on Sundays. We were 1-0 down, half way through the second half today. Our striker was put through to a one on one with their keeper, who came racing out his area. Our striker lobbed the ball over him - or at least he tried to, before the keeper jumped up and swatted it away...

    Most annoying reaction to correct decisions

    Proud to announce that I used 2 of these in my game yesterday. "Ugly but legal" went down a storm after a dodgy looking throw-in. Rolled out "doesn't make it legal" at the end too. Gave a penalty in the last 5 mins for a scything down in the box and got met with a barrage of "he got the ball...

    Glasses in the Rain

    Loving all your replies folks - but back to my question. :) If lenses aren't an option, have others worn a cap to keep the rain off their glasses?

    Cheers Ross - tried contact lenses before. Didn't really get on with them.
