This one has always raised a few laughs whenever I've used it. When a player is bordering on dissent I will say, "Listen player, if I had wanted to listen to complaining all morning then I would have stopped at home with the wife"

Baggie here - I was at the other end of the ground but in real time it looked a penalty so I can see why Mason gave it. I obviously don't condone what Gayle did and it does need rooting out of the game, but why all of a sudden have they decided to act? That was probably worse than Gayles and...

Corner kick ;)

Sharp was offside on the initial shot as well!

I'm happy to see that my thread has brought up a good point. To all those saying that the referee didn't see the 'stamp' pause the video exactly where it is supposed to have happened, to me it looks clear as day that the ref saw it but chose to play on. In my opinion the assistant dropped him...

Okay thanks for that, the reason I was unsure is that the ref was clearly looking at the apparent stamp and signaled play on advantage, and then brought it back after the ball had gone dead after consulting with his assistant.

Sorry I didn't explain the restart part too well. Basically the ref played advantage and they shot over the bar, so it's a goalkick. Then he notices his Assistant has his flag up and goes over to him. After the red, he restarted play by giving Sheffield Wednesday a freekick from where the...

1.03 in the video. Thoughts? In real time from behind the goal I thought it was a red so can see why Assistant called it, but then when I saw a replay on twitter on my phone 5 minutes later I couldn't believe it. Assistant referee called it, but the ref was clearly looking at the incident as...

You forgot to mention another one of ours (West Brom) that got chalked off for offside. ;)

I think you have hit the nail on the head here :)

Good points raised, thank you. Will continue to keep my mouth zipped then.

Yes you are right I just had a look up on the history, here it is for anybody wondering: http://www.punditarena.com/football/english-football/ckelleher/premier-league-footballs-history/

This always seems to happen to me when it shouldn't, I am level 7 and I get level 5's and 6's taking up the Junior role. Yes I know it aids my development but it shouldn't really be happening. During the pre match talk I always seem to be leaned on to go Senior. In fact this season (including...

Sorry my Australian friend I missed a word off. I meant it had 'Premier League' written underneath the word 'Delta'. :) Perhaps a picture will help:

Fairly sure it was a Mitre Delta. Think it also had Premier League written on it underneath.

You are right that you don't see it often. I found myself in the unusual position of having to give it twice in consecutive games towards the end of last season!

Hi Craig, was good to be on the game with you Saturday. Hopefully be on another one with you soon.

If there was ever any proof needed that players don't know the laws of the game here it is. Blue v Red, Red goal kick, not the biggest pitch in the world and he bladders it right over the top of blue's defensive line. Red player was in an 'offside' position, CAR flag goes up, everybody stops...

I'd like to think we have all been in this situation more often than not when running the line. You see a player is onside so allow play to continue and one of the defenders asks nicely (well sometimes they do) which one played him on. Sometimes you can't really be sure exactly who played him...

Fair enough. However like I said there were players in the box already waiting for the cross. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on it though because he would have been looking at the player about to cross the ball.
