    Liverpool vs Aston villa

    Yes, that's weirder, if he didn't think that was a foul?

    Liverpool vs Aston villa

    Yes, can't understand why Bailey's DOGSO attempt, wasn't downgraded to a yellow, as he played advantage, unless I am reading the LOTG wrong?

    Rice red card

    Absolutely ridiculous this wasn’t a yellow card, look how far Arteta is out of his technical area, and does it for most of the game. Where’s the consistency?

    Thanks for your advice. I have cancelled the 3G one and booked a track one in mid-August. Might do one in astros, as I feel the grip would help, as my normal running shoes didn't seem to. Maybe I am looking for excuses, but I do need some 'marginal gains'

    Absolutely agree. I had no complaints as it was an electronic gate, so being .0.2 seconds out was harsh, but I trusted the process. Have another go on Thursday, but this time on 3G rather than a running track, so not sure if this will be easier, as I did feel I didn#t have much grip on the...

    That is ridiculous, as I failed my L4 sprints yesterday. All very official 1.5m cone to the electronic start gate. My two times were 6.4 seconds, so missed out by 0.2. Will give it another go in a couple of weeks, but will knock reffing on the head if I don't get through the fitness tests...

    NED V TUR

    He is the best in the business. So calm, and seems to instinctively know when a player has dived or fouled. A fantastic watch

    GER v SCO - Euro 24

    Yes, he is great to watch, and somebody to aspire to. Seems to actually enjoy being there, and living the moment

    GER v SCO - Euro 24

    Hope so. Yes, Turpin can carry it off, as he is so calm, and unfussed and has a brilliant air of confidence about him. He is so good to watch as a ref

    GER v SCO - Euro 24

    Thanks for the clarification, yes just read that story and Googled it after your post. So sounds unlikely to be in grassroots next season, which is a shame.

    GER v SCO - Euro 24

    I haven't been looking at law changes yet, but with the 'only the captain can approach' trial, IFAB states, 'This trial is available only to competitions that do not involve teams from the top two domestic levels or senior ‘A’ international teams. Bit confused by that, as to why is it being...

    That's really useful. I am on an interval training plan at the moment but sounds like the sprints need some practising. Somebody posted on here about the sprinting technique as well. Did you feel like you had to get that right and work on that?

    Blood pressure for fitness tests

    I did look online and Boots do it, and plenty of other pharmacies do it, and Boots can book online, but not sure of the cost

    Recommended Smart Watches

    A bit of an update needed on past discussions. I want to update my Fitbit Versa 3 to a smartwatch, which enables the RefSix app and also can customise interval runs, ready for the FA fitness test for training. There are so many Garmin watches available, any recommendations on the best ones...

    Me at the moment! But I have until the 14th July to get my fitness up and technique improved. Thanks for all your advice especially using your arms to propel, as I have never considered technique before.
