We ran the FIFA test at the RTS in Orlando last month, and nearly everyone passed. The only failures were a couple nationals who injured...

He will certainly be missed. As a new referee I referred to that site religiously, and still do on those occasion.

I appreciate your frustration with coaches who act this way, but unless the tournament rules dictate otherwise, you have absolutely no authority...

Re: MU v. Villa (no result) It was my understanding that the ManU bench actually had a direct interface to the 4th's electronic board. This...

This is only one of several rules that MLS has decided that it is going to selectively enforce. It makes our job in the trenches that much more...

I got this in my email today from the Federation: Dear Referee Date: March 26, 2009 There has been well established U.S. Soccer...

Does anyone here wear all-black running shoes during tournaments or multiple game weekends? I've been seriously considering it lately, as it...

I certainly can understand the frustration that can come with harping spectators, especially to an official that is fairly new to the occupation....

And all three of them matched the ManU keeper. Tsk tsk tsk. These are the kind of things that drive me insane when an assessor brings them up.

I frequently lurk around Big Soccer, and in particular this board. For what it's worth, the snarky attitude and tone directed at PVancouver are...

My grandfather, who knows almost nothing about soccer, summed the game up perfectly for me during the second extra time period: "They spend so...

Alright I'm in, but I reserve the right to piss and moan about the name, and to make ridiculous suggestions for replacement names at any point...

Keeping the name "Boca Juniors" has a special geographical quandary if the team is located in South Florida, as the city of Boca Raton is just a...

I'm in, but I cannot let myself be known to be affiliated with any group called "the Ultras." It sounds like the reunion tour of a bunch of...

Zero. It's not fair to you or the players to do any sort of competitive game alone. As a paid official, I always keep it in mind that these teams...

I have to agree with the U-16/U-17 boys matches. I live in South Florida, and god-forbid when I have to cross into Miami-Dade county. The...

While I can't really defend Gulati, I'm not really sure who would be right to replace him. In fact, I'm not even really sure what type of person...

My apologies. I missed the first 10 minutes. I was wondering why Wynalda was doing games on FSC. :D

The one positive I'm holding on to right now is that I no longer have to listen to Eric Wynalda pronounce Cuba "Cooba." Other than that, not...

Bienvenidos a Miami. Seriously, did you just move here yesterday? Even in politics every other ethnic community takes a backseat to the Central...
