Whitey Grandad Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 2 hours ago, gio1saints said: Thank you for the last point. Grassroots football refereeing is a thankless task. At times last season in Southampton Yourh leagues it felt like I was a verbal punchbag because VAR made it seem that Referees decisions were not to be trusted. Even at youth league level u18! Players and Managers seemed especially empowered to argue every decision - instead of getting on with the game. I cannot see any incentive for anyone to try refereeing at present. Even at amateur level you are treated like shxx. For less than minimum wage. You get £30 for around 3-4 hours including travel to and from games plus paperwork online. It’s definitely a lot worse than it used to be. The television companies don’t help with their constant over-analysis of any refereeing decision.

Totton Saint Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 I wish Southgate would 'experiment' by resigning now to see what effect it would have on the team selection ,tactics and results. i guess we would not be able to parachute in a new manager so why not have a player\manager from one of the squas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Did I accurately hear on Talksport earlier that the England team have had an emergency meeting where each player has told Southgate their preferred position?!? Please tell me that's satire... Googles... No, not satire. They actually told Southgate the positions they wanted to play in. During a major tournament. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Just now, Totton Saint said: Does that include Pickford? Perhaps Kane said he did not want to play any where! "Ever since I saw Bazunu doing so well, going up late in a game, I've dreamed about being a striker," revealed Pickford. Perhaps the discussion was more around which position they wanted to play, to better support TAA and Foden? 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Who? Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Adams is doing very well holding up the ball, carrying the ball, and bringing other players into play. The service to him is awful. You could look at all the stars in the England team and think they were all crap, but they clearly are not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the camera was looking down at the player, looked like a bit of a fit….could be anything, but looked bad but, when he was placed on his side/recovery position, he was moving more normally.
