Red v blue.
Reds leading 4-2 with about 5 to go and blues start the moaning tactics.
First up I had midfielder who has not done anything all game supposedly get fouled. Nothing in it for me at all but it was in a dangerous attacking place so he got upset he didn't get anything. He runs back and fouls the red.
I blow up and he gets even more upset and makes the comment "you've given us nothing all game" in an aggressive manner. To slow the game down as it was getting a little hot by the blues, I stopped the restart from happening and asked to speak to said blue player. He refused to come over and shouted "if you want me, you come to me". I said loudly "that's not an option, I've asked you to me". Normally if a player is actively seen to come towards me I make a slow movement to them to save them a walk further and speed things up too. He again shouted " you want to talk you come to me".
So I said "final chance, come to me or I'll take a difference type of action". He shouted "do whatever you want". So I cautioned him for dissent by action (I saw this as disrespectful and showing me dissent). The captain pipes up and also said I've been biased and given nothing for them. Had a quiet chat with him saying if he had not acted as he did he wouldn't have got cautioned and reminded him that if he counted up the free kick count they'd likely to have had more so his theory was incorrect. He shut up and played on.
2 minutes later a team mate this time started saying I've given him nothing and, in his words, " been crap all game". So I cautioned him for dissent rather than sending him for OFFINABUS. He, at first, refused his name and refused to turn around for his number. Said anymore and itll be a 2nd yellow. His captain then told me his name.
Got on with game, with one further caution for red for PI.
After the game the keeper/manager comes to shake my hand and tells me that "you've not had your best game today. Missed everything for us but gave them everything. You had a shocker".
So I turned to him and said " look, you conceded 4, losing 4-2. Don't look at me for excuses when you've not had the best game either ". I then walked off.
Fed up with teams who criticise referees but never look at their own performances.
