In my game today, a preseason friendly, I sent off a player for S1. As he was leaving he had a few choice words to say so additional misconduct. If I was using the WGS I would do a sending off and an extraordinary report as well. However the teams are not on WGS so I am having to send the old...

I also find they are quite petulant about some things for instance if they get tackled and they believe its a foul but the ref doesn't think so and waves it off, you KNOW their next action is revenge. Easy yellow card.

I have never known u16 captains to have any influence on the behaviour of the team mates

I've always understood "the moment of delivering the ball" (as per Procedure at Law 15) to the moment the ball 1. leaves the hands and/or 2. it crosses the boundary line But some of the guys on the Facebook post seemed to be implying "delivering" in this case as being different "releasing"...

I saw this question posted on an American referee Facebook group. There has been a lot of to-ing and fro-ing in response. May I know what peoples thoughts are on this

Is it too late to add my name to the list?

What are peoples thoughts and considerations on this clip I took of an America facebook group? what elements are you looking to come to a decision and what decision will you make and any disciplinary action this is the same incident in slow motion

i see a lot of people say referees cannot enforce substitution. and I agree in principle for adult players who have mental capacity. however what if it was youth players. How ill that come reflect on the calculus. In a tight u14 cup final, a player for away team is acquires a leg injury. the...

Minty, what if in your opinion the player doesn't appear to as if they are in a fit state to play but the coach insist they are? wouldn't your safeguarding duties mean you should not allow the said minor player to play? to quote the FA safeguarding guidlines "In football, physical abuse could...

This is a similar scenario to something i saw people arguing on facebook. Scenario: a youth player is injured but his coach won't sub him off. Neither he or I are doctors, but as a referee I judge that he'd be better off ieaving the game. The coach disagrees. Can you insist the player doesn't...

since all animals legally are seen and property (you cant murder a dog for intance only charge with animal cruelty and criminal damage to property). The lotg as currently written means vc can only be against people (opponents, team mates, match officials, ream officials spectators or any other...

Sendinf off yes. But the debate i was invloved was whether it was for s2 (vc) or s6 (offinabus)

I saw this on an American referee facebook page: What action can a referee take (based on the LOTG) if a player brutally throws a dog that had wandered unto the field of play during a game?

Saw this on Facey and want to know what your opinions are on this.

on the Facebook page that i took this off there are whole lot of whole lot of whole who disagree with this and think every goal off a hand should be chalked off

My main question though is that position even compatible with the LOTG

i saw a comment on american referee group on Facebook "My one exception to deliberate handling is I won't allow a goal scored by the hand. Whether deliberate or not" apparently FIFA (through Futuro) about disallowing every goal that comes of an attacker hand. what are your thoughts on this...

For me that is the crux of it. That is what makes it a foul. One of my working definitions of a careless tackles was not getting the ball and accidentally negatively impacting your opponent. The attacker had no way of avoiding the defenders foot once the tackle had gone in. It was a fair attempt...

what are your opinions on this. i saw this on a group on Facebook. an overwhelming majority see this as no penalty and no simulation. i must admit that i am one of those that do see the foul and agree with the penalty. i am prepared to change my mind. but need more experienced heads on here to...
