Rhodes 247 Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 Guidance issued this week by the FA Referees Committee on Promotions and Reclassifictions for the 2020/21 season following a meeting of the Committee on 17 March: The Referees' Association - Promotions and Reclassifications – Season 2020/21 (the-ra.org) With insufficient data to justifiably make decisions regarding promotion and reclassification and given the fact that most referees have not officiated for many months, the FA Referees’ Committee believes that promotion and reclassification should not be implemented at the end of season 2020/21.

Rhodes 247 Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 PetetheGreek - Just to bring you out of the woodwork if I may, what is your view on this argument between Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards out of interest: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In the same way an AR will not raise his/her flag for a tight off side in case they get it wrong and inadvertently chalk off a legitimate goal, the same thinking applies here. Let Bellingham score and then see what VAR says. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

petethegreek 248 Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 13 hours ago, Rhodes said: Just wondering whether this is a legitimate goal', cue PetetheGreek: If a team official, substitute, substituted or sent-off player or outside agent enters the field of play, the referee must: • only stop play if there is interference with play • have the person removed when play stops • take appropriate disciplinary action If play is stopped and the interference was by: • a team official, substitute, substituted or sent-off player, play restarts with a direct free kick or penalty kick • an outside agent, play restarts with a dropped ball Outside agent Any animal, object or structure, etc., as well as any person who is not a match official or on the team list (players, substitutes and team officials) ====================================================== No goal.

tringarmy 80 Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 Another top quality offside decision at the weekend. Fortunately it didn't cost us. Would have gone 3-1 up with 10 to play rather than having had to squeeze through on penalties after conceding in the 90th minute. petethegreek and View from the Boundary 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I see that he has tattoos which you said you hated with Referees and it was un-professional, he even says 'why shouldn’t a Referee have a nose piercing if they want', I can't imagine you with one: Clattenburg reveals he quit refereeing after realising he ‘can’t be bothered with idiots like Jose Mourinho complaining’ (thesun.co.uk) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
