RAPPO Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Good post pumpkin! I think the majority of ref's we have in the Trelawny league are pretty good. Most of the them are nice blokes just out to enjoy a Saturday afternoon game of football as much as the players. A lot of the really good ones have already been mentioned by the guys but there are loads more and if you take the time to talk to them and give them the respect they deserve for doing a bloody difficult job then the players will probably get some respect back. ( I agree that we have a couple of little Hitlers as well though! Which is a shame on the other 99%.) What if everytime the players made a mistake the ref came up and said 'You're crap'!! You would soon get fed up!! They can only give what they see and sometimes that is through a crowd of players or blind side and maybe not much help from a club linesman. i.e: a sub that does not want to be doing it anyway!!) I reffed my lads U.13 game yesterday and made mistakes for sure. I didnt give a penalty as i thought the defender had clipped the players legs but definately took a bit of the ball just before, making it a good tackle so i gave a corner. My mate came up at half time and said how did you miss the obvious pen!!! Perhaps every player should ref a game to see it from that point of view and i tell you, you will appreciate the officials more after you've done it as you cant win! Make a good decision,play abit of advantage and it works out well for a team and i bet they don't say 'thanks ref,great advantage'!! But make a mistake and get berated!! Just remember they are human and can't get every decision spot on. Have a think next time you are about to shout at a ref as a player,manager or spectator. We can't have a game without them!! :c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Phil Avis, George Pattison, Nigel Jewell, Nigel Nichols, Paul Windle, I think we are blessed with a large number of decent refs. Although I have probably disagreed with all of them at some stage or another as both player and Manager! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So funny after making a late tackle once(not dirty) reeksy asked me to come over for a word, he reached into his pocket for his cards i then said "i got there as quick as i could" he took one look at my bulky frame ,left his cards in his pocket patted me on the back and said, "be a bit quicker next time" LEG-END Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_GAFC8 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Colin Bennetts. Cracking ref. Never misses a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodmanaldo Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 I could name lots. Colin Spence = hero. Paul Cackett, Nigel Jewell, Mike Carter to name a few. Tim Topham is also a quality referee; applies common sense and he always explains his decisions which I believe is key, he's certainly a much better ref than he ever was a player (Only joking Timmy!) :clapper: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenose Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 We had Neil Harvey on Saturday and was probably the best ref we've had for 2 seasons.....was consisent, communicated with the player and let the game flow....could have produced a couple of cards but chose to give a few harsh words instead....no complaints about his performance at all.....and we lost.

8 quid Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 A little off the subject i know but i have seen 3 very poor refs in the last 3 weekends,all 3 had big weight issues & didnt really leave the centre circle during the whole of the game/games.As i understand there is a fitness test for a ref & a really good ref has had to pack up this season do to a knee problem yet he was more mobile than the 3 i witnessed put together ! ! ! !.Any ideas any1 ?

haylemed Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 as an ex senior ref myself i never criticise ha ha ha ha. when they reffed hayle. always told the officials before the game to expect some stick.but it was always done in good spirit.what a lot of players and managers seem to forget that if a player has a bad game the manager pulls him off.the ref is always on his own against 22 players and both team officials.they turn up every week so you can play football on sats so in my opinion they all deserve credit.

Harsh but FAIR Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Charlie philpott by a mile the best ref around. Gets the respect from players and talks to you not down to you like a few of them around. Worst is Knowlsey, and the huge fat one from Falmouth, Rose or rosy I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
le boss Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Charlie philpott by a mile the best ref around. Gets the respect from players and talks to you not down to you like a few of them around. Worst is Knowlsey, and the huge fat one from Falmouth, Rose or rosy I think Sorry but you are so wrong about Rosy aka Steve Rose - one of the few ex-players turned referee who uses common sense because he has seen it and done it all as a player and knows when someone is being naughty or just clumsy or whatever. Refs like he used to play - hard but very fair and with a very approachable attitude. As for being fat??? I think he is just big boned but then you dontseem to have a good word for many people on here!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHY ALWAYS ME? Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Christopher Dengler and Nigey Nicks are pretty good refs as is Stephen Rose, like said is an ex player and is intelligent when to play advantage etc. Has James O Brien hung up his whistle?

dr.dre Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 every ref we have had this season have done a good job, always have a bit of a moan at them during a game when decisions go against you. but honestly think the standard of reffing this season has been excellant SO FAR.
