why? we are not getting paid to play

Because, to be blunt mate, its a **** job. Doesnt matter how 'friendly' it appears to be, being called a **** or a **** every 5 minutes is no fun. I've stoppe refing IFC games (sorry granty) for that reason, I just cant be arsed with arguing my decisions with my mates.

Refeering a game is great fun when you do it is a favour (as I did for BAT some years ago in the Sunday League) and all I needed to say to both teams pre match was start abusing me and game over ! Fair to say though I did it a few times with no problems and even a bit of good natured micky taking !

see, exactly! there are those that actually enjoy doing it, just as much as we do playing.

I did thoroughly enjoy it though the power to just walk off ( I wasn't qualified or anything) meant of course the players knew any problems and I'd take my ball and go home ;)

seriously?? :-)

sure..I dont want any money..

 

just expenses for travel and accomodation..I will need to come from plymouth..

 

say £50 for petrol, £50 for a night in a Hotel (no B&Bs for me)...hmm, I will need to buy a referees kit and whilst we are at it, some new boots..

Posted (edited)

I will ask my work mate, but he ref's hants league sometimes, so only an outside chance. he ios also a Pompey fan, so won't take ANY abuse, the skate bastard.

 

Can I tell him it's twenty quid?

 

And Mike, where is the drinking session being held? Don't the Leigh Hotel have entertauinmant Sunday nights?

EDIT, just called the Leigh, no entertainment on Sundays.

I don't mind doing it. As you know I know what I'm doing! I'm not sure I can d it for free though. If you can cover my expenses I am happy to share my skills. Driving to and from Wiltshire will probably cost about £110. Let me know.

 

I may be able to get a couple of assistants as well (£30 each)

the game is against a team i have just started to coach. Anyone that does the reffing job will get no abuse, i can gaurantee that. I will be playing for the forum side and i will make sure the opposition are well aware of what is exceptable.....saying that I KNOW THESE LADS DONT NEED TELLING!!!

Any post match drinking will be amusing by grace of the fact that the opposition won't be allowed any alcohol...

 

They can play on the swings though, right?

:D glad to hear it. Still waiting to hear from 1 or 2 but at the moment we have 14 players, from that the 1st 11 is sorted. I have said red and white but we are also trying to sort out a kit too :-)

It's hard enough in the lowest leagues to get a ref when you are paying them, and the players have the deterrent of fines and suspensions. I'd be shocked if you can get a ref for a friendly for free unless they already owe you a favour.

League secretaries when reffing games do NOT like to be sworn at! ;)

lol at my dad using big words like "confirmed" haha teach us the hard way our midfield is killer, 2 academy players as well as youth league reps lol at you, lol at you

 

if your team is so good, why arnt ypu playing friendlies against 'actual teams' that might be of a standard as good as yours? Rather than asking a group of people that meetup for a social kick about if they wana make a team for a one off? If you were to be us 10-0... it would have been a bit of a pointless work out for your team, no?

Good game played in the right spirit though. Keep it up, looks like you've got the makings of a good team for your age group.
