John Terry

As far as I am aware, if you are serving a ban / suspension as a football player you are banned / suspended from ALL Football. So messers Blatter and Platini explain how this works? Currently I am suspended from Football for wearing a non black top on a Sunaday morning match. In this case suspended means suspended. So how in the hell was John Terry allowed in "The Technical Area" of a Champions League Final. Then allowed to change into a kit as a player to lift the Trophy at the end of the match? Id really love to hear the pathetic excuse for this?

Have you "ever"? As a Referee

No names, but as A Referee how many of you have in fact worn a "non black top". All you need to do is attach a post with a simple yes / no. Or was it "ONLY ME" ?

Suspended for Common sense Refereeing !!

Here's a point of interest if your thinking about taking up Refereeing.

Does anyone know a Hobby you can have, where you provide all your own equipment, pay for all your Examinations to pursue the Hobby, then pay Annually again to to continue? I'll tell you

Football Referee

Not only this but you are NOT Employed by your local County F.A. but you earn revenue for them almost every time you go out to Referee.

On top of this they, The County F.A. have the power to SUSPEND you from your Hobby. The Hobby that you sent many many pounds on taking up. There are course fees, registration fees not to mention your "KIT" which doesn't come cheap. NO The County F.A. DO NOT supply anything.

Myself I am on the receiving end of a suspension by BCFA, for wearing the wrong colour shirt. This suspension motivated me to create www.soccerreferee.co.uk to allow me to have my say. As BCFA have told me that I have to attend a Referees Commission to explain my actions. However I have already told BCFA in E-mail's why I took the action I did. BCFA in its wisdom have told me that "certain points raised" in these E-mail's will not be mentioned at such a Commission. So is there really any point in attending?

Please feel free to comment. I will just remind you that this is not the place to Slag Referee's. Thanks.
