Had one of those games this morning, where I am left baffled, as to what the devil coaches teach the kids these days?
Ok so... blue vs red, U11 7v7 match, 30 minutes match(2x15). First half ended 3-1 for blue team, with #8 red now constantly on my radar, shoulder barges, mistimed kicks, and push and shove. He tries to come across like the next Ronaldo with a load of tricks, and blue defenders duly dispossed him.
KMI: 10th minute of 2nd half (score 4-2 blue), blue attacker slips on ball in PA, and while trying to pass it to next attacker catches 8 red who duly clears for a corner.
He comes to me, saying: are you blind? he kicked me, use your brain. and he goes to take his position. Blow whistle, a telling off was coming, he ignored me. grab my sonik blast from pocket, whistle on full lungs, calling 8red, audible from next postcode, still ignores me. instead he walks to coach, saying to me im off do what you want. by this time, i am not best pleased, so i call him to me again, and coach saying go and talk to ref.
Coming back on the pitch, i call him once more(7th time) he tells me to go away. had enough, grab my book(coach now shouting to put book away... as if...) call him once more and as he looks at me, produced a red card. never finished to write his name down, his dad is in my face, on pitch. a stern away of the pitch on top of my voice, dispatches him back, turn my attention to coach(saying i was a disgrace between other thing) dispatch him to car park as well.
in all this 8red is still on pitch, to which i firmly remind him he has been sent off. he turns on the waterwork. dad again on the pitch, i said to him escort him to changing rooms please.
both on sidelines, and dad spewing abuse... my patience gone by now i called the game off.
i informed red manager that misconduct report will be sent in, as well as the red card.
Im not surprised grass root football is in decline... absolutely miffed off at all of this.
Sorry for long post, i just needed to vent...
EDIT: i had in the afternoon, red team OA, local saturday league, and even their manager encouraged me to send the report in, as the junior division is getting out of hands, according to him.
