Does anyone know if cross school matches can continue from the 29th. As most will know extra curricular clubs can continue from tomorrow but a teachers talking about a match for me and I need to know whether I can do it legally? @RefJef you may know?!

Thoughts on this?

For City’s goal, Jesus was obviously in an offside position although Mings touched it first, is that an offside offence?

Opinions on the penalty given for Mitylland after the offside (seemingly correct from the image provided by BT after 15 mins) And the Mane apparent handball then Minamimo goal?

What do we think about these 2 tackles? RC, YC or foul?

Eastleigh vs Hartlepool on BT 1 now the pitch conditions are absolutely farcical, ball doesn’t bounce or run, players can’t dribble and every time the ground if touched it comes up in lumps. Just gone into half time, as a ref at this level do you call the game off now for players safety?

That pretty much confirms what we thought - as usual I doubt it’ll only last 28 days so see you guys after the new year probably.....

Completely agree with the Digne red card today however Ancelotti’s comments were IMO completely out of character. I know he’s defending his player but surely a breach of the interview protocol calling the decision a joke. I have also attached a link of the interview where he says it was not...

Opinions on Fabinho pen vs Oli McBurnie? IMO no foul but contact was on the line so if given as foul pen was correct decision although I thought the tackle was OK personally?

What does everyone think of the Jimenez kick out on Koch, very similar to the Son one and even with the contact, that looked like a more violent kick than the Son one although the Harry Maguire vs Chelsea ones wasn’t punished either. Red card for VC imo very obvious kick out towards the player...

a yellow for dissent to the player is probably more appropriate imo, or even a strong warning, but if you think it's a red, i'd send off rather than ask to be removed, even at U9. i'd also not be considering reporting it. it certainly doesnt fall under any conventional disciplinary section...

I’ve been told by a mate today that a game today, an u11 game his brother was playing in was abandoned. Apparently the victim was extremely skilful and was taking the piss by doing tricks then the attacker picked up the ball and launched it at the lads face and called him the n word. This...

Hi, Unfortunately due to a recent incident at a game and because of the lack of support I felt I was given at the time, I am thinking about giving up refereeing friendlies due to the stress and problems caused by these kind of games. My question is if any other referees have any thoughts on...

Hi all, I have attached a photo showing the statement given to refsupport off twitter which states that al registered referees will get specific guidance within the next 48 hours

Hi all, sorry as I’m still quite new I’ve never reffed any friendlies before - do I have to log these ok the WGS or not - all teams are affiliated I checked with them as I have already got offered 7 and need to know before I start next week Thanks 👍

Anyone else see Oliver Dowden on the news today saying grassroots sport will return from early July and then a gradual restart of sports. my opinion is that well probably starting with sports like cricket/ netball etc then going on to hopefully football and other sports by late July/early august...

Hi all, I have been allocated a game at u14 however I am only 15 ( school year 10) am I allowed to do this game?

Hi all, sorry for the big report coming up, I thought that I would seek advice for this if it happens in the future and what to say in my official report if requested by police/ competition . I have included all the cautions and dismissals. I felt like it built up after a pink player received...

Hi all, Quick question, on corners are players allowed to touch the ball walk away and another player come and dribble with it? Had it today and just blew up and told them to retake the corner

Hi everyone, I am doing an u13 district match Green vs Purple at AR, I have had a look but can’t work out how to get the ESFA national cup u13 on the WGS - does anyone know what to search or if it doesn’t go on the WGS?
