3 Official Website:- Official Website:- GUILDFORD REFEREES SOCIETY EDITOR S COMMENTS Roger Hall r0ger@btconnect.com Another Roger Rant A fantastic guest speaker last month, Michael Webb showed us clips from games he had refereed to see if we agreed that tackles that occurred during the game warranted a yellow or red card. Very interesting and thank you to some old and new faces that boosted are numbers into double figures, but it would have been nice to see a few more. AGM this month which more importantly means fish n chips and don t forget the tomato sauce this year Bob. Don t forget we re looking for a new Chairman, so if you fancy a go at the big chair, put yourself forward. There s nothing like being in control. The end of another season is upon us, Cup Finals, League titles and relegation deciders nearly complete. My last game as a referee will be on the 22 nd May and fittingly it will be Dunsfold, the same ground I refereed my first game some 16 and a half years ago. Somehow I don t think it will go ahead being so late but I m hoping it will. So if I don t see you at the AGM and a great summer and then YOU do it all again next season. The Perfect Storm I would like to tell you why you should never referee a team on a regular basis. I had refereed a youth side for four years and I agreed to come out of retirement to do their home games for their final year at youth level. I turned up one Sunday morning, a sunny day, perfect for a good game of football. Unfortunately, the opposition turned up with only 10 players, they were near the bottom of the table and Cranleigh (dame, now you know the team) still had hopes of winning the league. This was going to be a walk in the park, and within the first 2 minutes they were 1 up. After 10 minutes, they couldn t understand why they weren t 5-0 up. Half time still 1-0 they weren t happy, with 20 minutes to go 10 man Bagshot scored an equalizer. That was it, I suddenly became the worst referee that they d ever had. Surely Steve Ferris must have refed them in the past, but the constant descent and appealing for any coming together cards should have come out but I trusted the players to go back to playing football rather than do my job for me as it was so out of character, something I am now regretting. Which brings me on to another problem as I sit here on the Monday after the game, I m refereeing them again on Thursday!!! Now do I take that experience into the game and immediately brandish cards to the players who should have got them on the Sunday for the first sign of descent or clean slate, new start and referee like Sunday never happened??... Well read on and I ll tell you what I do/did. Thursday came, pencils sharpened, cards polished and vaselined for easier slide. Two in the book. for the opposition and not a peck out of Cranleigh. I think someone had warned them. Adrian s Tip of the Week SINGLE men - Get a glimpse of married life by taping Woman's Hour on Radio 4, then playing it back at a higher volume while watching the football on TV. ~ 3 ~

7 The W Club. A brief tour of football in Woking. There was a select group of City gentlemen back in the 1980 s known as the W Club who frequented the train out of Waterloo every evening, and the story goes that they had a whisky for every station they passed through associated with the letter W. Wimbledon, Walton-on-Thames, West Byfleet, Worplesdon, and of course Woking. The elite group of gentlemen in the above photograph have nothing whatsoever to do with the W Club, but I thought it might be a good way of getting your attention to read on. Although I was, thankfully, not a member of the Club, I used to stand in that smoke filled buffet car and gaze out of the window at all football pitches that flashed past wondering, who plays there?. I would never have known then that 35 years later I would be visiting many of those grounds as a player, a referee and as a Surrey County Football Association Officer. Our local football teams strive to associate themselves with the W of the Woking Borough. Woking & Maybury, Woking & Weybridge Woking & Horsell, Woking Cougars, Woking Corinthians, Woking Town, Woking Tigers, Woking United and last, but not least, Woking Football Club. The list doesn t end there, with the suburbs of the Borough keeping their identity with the local communities of Knaphill, Byfleet, Mayford, West Byfleet, Pirbright, Ripley, Worplesdon, Westfield and Sheerwater. Much of the above is the grassroots part of the game, but the biggest issue we have is how to sustain the participation in the Adult game. Whilst the Youth side continues to thrive, the challenge facing us is the transition from Youth to Adult football. Once the footballing kids reach 17 or 18 years of age, the social distractions start to intervene, not to mention going off to further their education at University and working at weekends. The two largest local Youth Leagues, the Surrey Primary and Surrey Youth Leagues, have over 1,350 Youth teams between them. So how do we keep them in the game once adult football beckons? That is the challenge. So what are we doing about it? To address the challenge of keeping our boys and girls in football, the Surrey County FA is holding an evening devoted to the subject on 17 th May, at the Metropolitan Police Football Club s home venue of Imber Court, with the event being delivered by the Football Association Adult Participation Manager, Dermot Collins. All Leagues have been invited, but any Clubs will be welcome too. It was very pleasing to see the set up at Meadow Sports Boys & Girls Football Club a couple of weeks ago, when they kindly hosted one of our Youth County Cup Finals at short notice. The Club, celebrating their 50 th anniversary next season, have 28 Youth and Girls Teams, providing football facilities for all ages at their Loop Road home. The delivery of football at Meadow Sports and at many other Youth Clubs like them, is due to the army of volunteers who devote their time to give something back to football. It is fitting that their Loop Road ground has the back drop of Woking Football Club s Laithwaite Community Stadium, where next Wednesday evening, the 4th May, we will see the Surrey Senior Cup Final being hosted between Godalming Town and Merstham. 7.45pm kick off. With another season drawing to a close, and with Cup Finals of the local Leagues being held all over the County, bookshelves and mantelpieces of players and match officials will soon be graced with a medal or two. Next instalment: a brief tour of football in Guildford. ~ 7 ~
8 Thanks to Touchlines Sutton Referees Society for all the You Are The Ref questions With snow obscuring some of the pitch markings, the home keeper uses half-time to mark out a line with red chalk from his goalline to the penalty spot. He says it s the only way he can judge angles otherwise you should abandon. What now?.. When the home team go 6-0 up near the end of a cup semi-final, the scorer takes his shirt off and stands right in front of you, celebrating. You realise what he is up to: he wants to be booked now as it will trigger a suspension for his next league game, removing any risk of his being suspended for the final. What do you do?.. A striker celebrates a stunning goal by making the sign of the cross and praying. The beaten keeper is outraged, insisting the striker has breached UEFA rules on religious messages. What do you do?.. One of your assistants has churned up his part of the wet pitch so much that he takes to running inside the line when the ball is not nearby. Defenders complain that he is causing a distraction and a danger. Do you intervene? You are the assistant referee on a local league semi-final. With 10 minutes left to play and several tired players on the pitch, some of the tackling has become a little ragged. In the center of the park, midway inside your half, a nippy red midfielder pinches the ball from a less-agile opponent and spins away to start another attack. In desperation, the blue opponent lunges into a reckless challenge, with both feet leaving the ground, but makes no contact as the red player darts away. The referee is about 8 yards from the incident and looking right at it but makes no reaction, simply allowing play to continue. Behind you, the red manager makes an angry shout that it should be a red card. In your mind, a yellow card was certainly deserved. What do you do? While you try to control a wild touchline melee, the away side sneakily swap a defender for a striker from their bench. You only realise when the striker scores the winner moments later. What now? Keith Hackett says: A nightmare! You and your colleagues should never have allowed this to happen, but as it has, here s how to unravel it. First, disallow the goal. Second, caution the striker for coming on without permission, and send him back to the bench. Third, caution the player who went off without permission, and have him return to the pitch. And fourth, approach the manager. Tell him you will be reporting his conduct he can expect severe sanctions and ask if he now wants to make a lawful substitution. Restart with a goal-kick... Late in the second half, you ask a player with blood on his shirt to leave the pitch and change it. As play continues, he grabs a new shirt and races back on but, in his haste, has put it on inside-out, obscuring his name and number. Do you stop play? ~ 8 ~
9 Keith Hackett says: Yes, but not because the shirt is the wrong way round. He went off under Law 4 (concerning players equipment), so cannot return until the ball is out of play and you have checked the condition of the new shirt. You need to deal with this by stopping the game, showing him a yellow card for coming back on without your permission, and then having him change again so his shirt number is visible. Restart with an indirect free-kick to the opposition, taken from the point where the ball was when you stopped the game.. On a bitterly cold day, a striker wears two official shirts at once his original and an identical replacement - but in the second half he overheats, so throws one to a young fan during a stoppage. He s already on a yellow! What do you do? Keith Hackett says: Nothing. The laws state that a player who removes his shirt after scoring a goal is cautioned for unsporting behaviour. There s no reason to penalise this player: he can wear two identical layers if he s cold, and he can take one off if that changes. If he left the field without permission to hand this shirt to a fan then that could pose a booking risk but use some common sense. Get on with the game.
