Taking an U14s game as your 1st game is very hard. Well done.. agree with above about decision and move to your position.

It seems like we all broadly agree. I felt 1st one just about crossed the line but can see why it’s 50:50 on giving it or not. Silva just cheats for me, it’s that simple. And did they show the foul on Haaland to Pawson, I can’t remember but something tells me they only seemed to show him 1 angle...

How many of us would allow the first goal, not really convinced I would, was it just a barge. The 2nd for me really makes things hard for grassroots Refs as I can’t see why that’s a penalty. It was all initiated by Silva.

All this stems from players trying to cheat. Sky & MoTD analysing every ref decision and managers constantly complaining. We all know it wasn’t really a foul and Mendy conned the ref but Bowen left his foot in to try and con a penalty. I honestly cant stand players trailing their legs. It’s so...

Not blaming ref at all but I couldn’t believe Lino missed it. I was watching thinking I’d missed something or had a brain freeze.

Ok James raising of flag. You know what I meant. they actually got a corner from this in the 89th minute.

It’s exactly as picture shows.. Ball goes straight through defence to Brighton player in offside position from the Brighton player poking it through..

what did anyone make of this decision by lino. I thought I’d seen it wrong as couldn’t understand him not waving

Well some one on Twitter that runs a ref group. So I’d assumed they know what they’re talking about.

Yes corner.. i think ball came in attacker had a shot, ball hit defenders knee and bounced up and hit arm. Arm raised at right angle above shoulders/head.

I had a situation where ball hit a defenders knee. Hit their arm. Arm was raised parallel with shoulders and extended above head. I gave a penalty, as I didn’t think arm needed to be there or could justify it being there. Was told because of deflection it shouldn’t have been given.

Probably should have called it deflected handball

it’s because I’ve been told any deflection from the defenders body, regardless of where arms are is not a handball and I want to be 100% certain of this before I stand my ground one game.

Ball deflects off defenders foot, knee etc hits defenders arm (in box) his arm is raised either above shoulder or out wide. are we giving penalty or not Or just a penalty if defender clearly moves arm towards ball. same if it bounces up off teams mates knee etc.
