Under 13s game two teams from the same club.
An elderly man had been watching his grandson playing right back so was standing by him for support.
Hes making his way over the pitch half time to again stand by his grandson and we start chatting about refereeing, football in general, football from years gone by, nice pleasent chat.
Just before we are about to resume for the second half the other teams manager comments "you cant have him on the pitch there ref", to which i asked why ?
Im not even sure what he said next but i think he though the old guy was trying to influence me in some way.
I told him we were just chatting about football in general but he wouldn't have it.
Is there actually anything against someone coming on the pitch at HT, a lot of parents stand by the side of their children and swap sides.
