    Witty comebacks

    Player: Ref, you've got a whistle, use it! Me: (fumbling in pocket): I've got these cards too...

    Can I make a living from refereeing?

    The pay rates where I work games near Washington D.C. are slightly different. But clearly I'm just an imposter here. Hmmm...

    Drop Ball Ceremony

    That has always been my interpretation too. There is absolutely nothing that we do that says play is restarted that is clearer than giving the players the ball. Make sure they are paying attention obviously and that any carnage has been cleared from the pitch, but why on earth do the players...

    When are the laws going to be updated?

    It's been rumored for a couple of years now that the laws will be updated to fall in line with the outdoor game but it has still not happened. Anyone know why not, and when we might finally see an update?
