We are desperately in need of referees for our league! Our matches take place on Saturday mornings at 10.30am. £35 per match. If you are a ref and available, please get in touch ASAP! PLEASE share this post too!

Just in case we need to remind the odd individual - it is absolutely not acceptable to encroach on the pitch - even as a manager. It’s certainly not advised to them tell the league safeguarding officer to ‘Do One’ when asked to come off the pitch.

Everyone in the grassroots game needs to come together and challenge the negative narrative against referees Thanks to the likes of Refsupportuk Radical Referee Bolton Referees Society Simon Mahomed Offside Trust East Anglia Kick It Out and others for their efforts to improve the game for all

Fellow referees… if a cup game goes to extra time… should you do the toss again with captains and allow them to pick ways again? Asking for a friend #referee #grassrootsfootball Refsupportuk TheRefereeForum.shop

KDB and Foden both missed great chances in the first half yet the media chose to focus on Milner incident, Sky Sports News even claimed it could cost City the title! This is a big part of the problem for referees. Hammered from all angles as soon as a chance presents itself.

If this club or manager had one ounce of integrity they would part company. Interestingly, they play each other on Saturday and we ask refs not to ref the game if he is in the Technical Area. We will have representatives watching. bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football…

Genuinely don’t know how some refs do it week in, week out all season. After 2 weekends in a row of Sat/Sun middles I am ready for a weekend off to recharge the batteries. Probably more mentally than physically. #grassrootsfootball #referee #grassrootsref

When top players do things like this it has a negative impact on #referees lower down the participation pyramid. It legitimises questioning of decisions and performance. Players should be educated more on the impact that comments like this can have. They are role models after all

If he’s already blown for HT but the half is then extended to take a penalty, should the rebound then not count? Or was the half not over and he stopped play to review the penalty decision? #ARSAVL

So took my youngest to his game today, and as I predicted to a parent, the match got abandoned! Parents are dicks, simple #grassrootsfootball #grassroots

The Tierny mistake was a bad one but the amount of coverage it’s received is incredible. Players simply don’t get this sort of stick when they miss a sitter or cost their team a goal. It’s a weird footballing world we live in. #NFFC #referee

Yesterday’s highlights included being told by someone from the side I was the worst referee he’d seen all season… from a game with 0 bookings and 0 bad comments from players and managers at full time. Interesting take 👀
