Sure, but it can help calm the rest of the players down when you give an explanation to the captain why one of their teammates is being sent off.

It is highly unlikely that you will get any stick at the meeting. The CFA will simply ask if you have anything to add, ask questions (for the purpose of investigating the incident, not to catch you out!) and may ask some questions of the offenders. Remember, you're not the one on trial; the team...

If the play is moving away from goal, it is hard to justify a caution for a promising attack. Sounds like it was not a booking.

I think we need to accept that some people are not cut out for this gig. People who respond emotionally to highly charged situations are those sorts of people. They can be used at low levels to fill in where needed; but they are not the kinds of people who should be given opportunities for...

Yes and they take it out on the referees by making them "failed referees."

Speak for yourself mate ;)

I usually stand where I was stood when they approached. Oh, that's not what you meant. Ok. Like many have already said, my position is that I will hear out any concerns or answer any questions put to me in a respectable manner once all of my other duties are complete. In the highly publicized...

If you want to reflect on it, try to run through the incident in your head and use the FIFA considerations to determine whether you made the right or wrong decision. This can help you in the future though, obviously, it cannot change what has happened. That being said, and most importantly...

Nobody is questioning whether Sigurdsson makes an "obvious action;" the question is whether his obvious action prevents his opponent from playing the ball. My answer is that it does not prevent him from playing the ball in any possible way.

They also argued about the stone cold handball offense.

The Jesus goal was in no way, shape, or form a foul; his arms went up, but there was no extension (so no push) or grabbing (no pull either). If a defender does the same thing in the PA, we say it is expected contact on a corner; why not for the attacker too?

Thanks for the advice. I think I will take your advice and meet with a trainer at least once got an overall planning session. Re: smashing it out of the park, I can aim to sprint significantly quicker than the required speed, and I can perform well on the HI run segment by focusing on...

Anyone have any experience training for this? I have around 2 months to prepare, I'm reasonably fit but really want to smash the test out of the park. Advice for training on a treadmill is also welcome, as I am stuck inside for about a month as we await Spring.

Sort of, but also loyal to HM the Queen and the Crown. Cheers!

A little update, I passed my online test. Now to train for the fitness test (gulp!) and on to the training camp.

It has already been established that he was not looking at the incident.

Son Heung-Min got sent off by VAR for something considerably less flagrant than that a month or two ago.

Imagine... a scouser talking sense! Now, should I get fired for that? Of course not.

In this case, I usually say "and aren't you lucky that you didn't" or something like "I know; and if you had, it would have been a caution."
