Admin i wasnt sure what section to put thid in so please feel free to move it if there is a more appropriate section.
I'm looking for a bit of advice on two fronts.
First of all as the title says I'm useless with words. what I mean by that is, whenever I call a player over for a warning I neverknow what to say or if what I say will have the correct impact. I normally keep it short and just say things like "any more tackles like that and you'll be in the book" but i'm just wondering if theres any other things i should be saying. i suppose it is clear and to the point!
The next bit is i'm too lenient, especially with dissent. I get a lot of shouts for "in the back" despite trying to position myself square on by judging the distance of keepers kicks etc. Appeals dont bother me as they are part of the game. But when i say no way its the screaming, shouting or moaning after it that can get tiresome. I get a lot of appeals for tackles etc and if theres no foul again i will shout no foul or words to that effect so all the players are clear to play on. off side is a big one when we have no NAR's and i take the decision myself. Again i do my best to get as close to the back line as possible using my diagnals and will shout "he's ok" if hes onside. I'll keep my cards in my pocket if i can but imhave done 49 games and "only" given out 9 yellows. 6 of these to players who have been warned butnthen can't keep their mouths shut.
Is there a good way of managing the situation? I try to speak to players as much as i can to manage the situation without cards but some either A) dont listen or B) take my words of leniency for stupidity.
I'm ready for some criticism for being too nice so fire away. i'm here to learn and accepting constructive criticism is certainly part of that
