    The new director seems like another charlatan, spouting pish, looking for a quick buck. I called him out as did a few others on here, he promised the world, some were willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. He’s now disappeared into the sunset,, with his promises a distant memory! We all hope @Paul Mc does turn up again to answer for himself!

    We did, however as I explained on our match thread, there was a ref association meeting that week, so the directives would’ve been fresh in his mind. Also, I don’t know, but he could’ve been observed so was being particularly strict. Regardless, it would’ve been made clear in his pre match briefing therefore players have no excuse.

    If they are being observed and told to referee a certain way due to feedback from a previous observer, then they are going to do that! you haven’t mentioned any specific decision you think the ref got wrong in your game? Can you enlighten us?

    I’m not saying there isn’t guys put through when not ready, there is a small minority but id still argue the issues lie with fans not understanding the laws (and ifab for making them so complicated - see handball!) I understand your point about different applications of the same laws, and as frustrating this may seem to fans, it’s not a shock in game for players. Some refs have different tolerance levels for certain ‘subjective’ laws. Take dissent, some refs won’t stand for any, some will allow a level of frustration to come out before dishing cards out. Same with delaying the restart of play, some refs will give warnings, some will think players are taking the piss. The ref will cover his expectations with both sets of players and managers pre-match, so how he referees won’t be a shock. Take Carlo’s red for us earlier in season, it was stupid and he should’ve known the ref wasn’t going to stand for it, even if others might let it slide! also if a ref is being observed he will ref much closer to the letter of the law than applying some ‘common sense’ as that gets marked down. Again tho, players and coaches know this is going to be happening, fans don’t!

    I get that argument, and by all means criticise, but unless you understand the intricacies of the laws then you are sometimes just making yourself look a fool! all too often folk are jumping on to criticise the ref when in fact they don’t understand the laws of the game themselves. Yea guys need to start somewhere, and the guys refereeing at our level have all done time at youth/amateur and junior(WOS/EoS) level, been observed, had feedback, and not been promoted until the guys watching them feel they are ready. Folk just jump on shouting because it’s what ‘they think’ the laws are rather than what they know. Iv not seen the game the original poster is referring too but I’d be delighted to have a look at any highlights and would happily retract my defence of the ref if he’s wrong.

    If the above 2 posts are indeed true then the fact you’ve made this thread in the 1st place is a disgrace. just because you work in football doesn’t mean you can’t referee. if your a club official then your club should be handed you your jotters as pish like this will just get them into bother. if you are indeed a referee then you should be ashamed of yourself. You should know how hard a job it is and that the refs have 1 look at it. Refs should be sticking together not slating each other, they get it hard enough from folk that don’t know the laws. How would you feel if you were reffing a game on a Saturday on a public park, and a fellow ref decided to have a go saying how terrible you were? the king and short of it is you are bitter your team lost and looking for someone to blame. Dry your eyes and get over it.

    Why don’t u go ahead and take a refs course with your local association. Show everyone how it’s done? There’s a huge shortage at all grass roots levels so another one would be a big help. Then you can come in and criticise when u actually understand the laws that the refs are trying to enforce!

    Cup 5 league 4 for monday Poor day at the office

    The issue on that day was it was 2 days after the ref association meeting where it was drilled into us about dissent and that kinda nonsense. That would’ve been his 1st game with that fresh in the head. He could easily have been getting assessed too. It’s a few weeks later and you will likely find he’s calmed down a bit. It was a stupid red for Carlo and hopefully Stevie does tell them not to do anything daft to risk another silly suspension.
