Postscript: there were some good suggestions here. I called both managers together before kick-off and explained my interpretation of the league...

Many thanks for all the replies. The only information the league supplies is what I quoted, so a lot is somewhat open to interpretation. Clearly a...

That's a much more informative video than the original clip I saw on the Guardian, their caption was wrong and their editing was misleading. That...

I saw the video on the Guardian website, and the url and accompanying text to the video said it was a goal kick. I was berated on another site by...

I understand your point re reluctance to consider it not "kicked to the keeper", but if you don't believe it's a violation of law 12, you've still...

If the goal kick is taken by a player other than the goalkeeper, the situation would seem to change in any infringement is a part of law 12....

ATR section 16.3 will answer your questions.

I couldn't find any threads on it either, was sure somebody would have picked up on it. There's a number of You Tube links to it as well as the...

Most of my games are Men's comedy league, quite often on my own since most of our local teams have gravitated down to O-40 D3 where there are no...

Men's comedy league. Back to back games, both being assessed. I was AR in the first, CR in the second. Lot of griping by the losing team in game...

It wouldn't let me rep Vetshak for his remarks a couple of pages ago about where we are headed re numbers of refs, but he's spot on. I've seldom...

How was this dangerous to other players? No, wait! Let's not go there...:eek:

Rather than devote a new thread to what is really just a bit of fun, here's something that really would have made a good story from the weekend if...

That would have been the approach I'd have gone with in the absence of something you could sell without, as you put it, going down that slippery...

I had a very enjoyable O-30 mens game this morning for what is probably the last match of the spring for me. Easy ride, very few fouls, and an...

I've checked with the lad's coach, and it seems his parents are suffering a bit with the tough economy and can't afford to get him the proper kit....

Re the little lad stuck in the shirt. I was laughing pretty hard by the time we were trying to free him from his shirt, so I am sure he knew I was...

Once again I turn out to referee the in-house ankle-biters. Red has a player who, if he were a dog, would be a big, lovable mutt. He's wearing a...

I ran the line in a couple of district league rec-level girls games. I usually like to listen to the interesting interpretations of the laws of...

Also, if you aren't sure what the assessor meant by that remark, ask him for some concrete examples as to what you could do in that area, things...

That's a very good point too, in general women keepers don't have the same athletic ability as men, few are as tall and so on. I dread seeing us...

njref makes a very good point, and I think you may have missed it. By and large the laws of the game are the same, but it is still a different...
