This afternoon a Black Referee will take charge of a @premierleague between @SheffieldUnited & @LutonTown , had I not gone public in 2019 and then encouraged Joel Mannix to follow my lead nothing would have changed. NO FALSE MODESTY ๐ #GhostObserver

The BAME ambassador for independent charity Ref Support UK says `ghost observersยด are needed to assess the assessors who control referee promotions.

WOW ๐ฏ ... I do believe I have just witnessed violent conduct. The ball has gone and he's just kicked him. This does not fall into the late tackle (SFP) category, I'm sure the @FA_PGMOL will clarify. The @Boro player is a very lucky boy, but then again it is Christmas ๐
Head loss moment from Hayden HACKney ๐ฌ Was the Middlesbrough midfielder lucky to avoid a red card for lashing out here?

An enjoyable boxing day afternoon watching @FarnboroughFC v @HAMRICHFC with my six year old son. He enjoyed his first experience watching #NonLeague football. ๐ I thought the Referee and his team managed the game well. ๐๐พ๐๐พ

This morning I was sent the tweet below referencing the @KnaphillFC v @Sheerwaterfc game in the @ComCoFL What do you think the @FA will believe Sheerwater were suggesting and do you think it's appropriate they send out a tweet apologising to our @FARefereeing colleague? ๐

I wonder what the @ComCoFL the @surreyfa @refsupportuk @FA @FARefereeing will make of these comments. There's one thing to disagree with a Refs decisions, but to say the following "REFEREE WAS ON THEIR SIDE LITERALLY" is a statement that will need to be explained in detail. ๐

If youโd like to set up a friendly when youโre off your high horse Iโll happily come and manage your team while you referee and Iโll also happily give you an assessment. One Challenge offered. @refsupportuk
Then to top it off he assists a goal and then denies he touched the ball. I approached him afterwards and ask him as my players are adamant and he completely lied and said he did not touch the ball 2nd clip is a close up. Part 2

The alleged incident prior to the @wellingunited v @pbtfc game in the @IsthmianLeague highlights that no one in football is above the law of the land. If a #nonleague player assaults an opponent on the Field of Play, during a game, should the police get involved?

This is most irregular, does anyone know exactly what happened prior to the @wellingunited v @pbtfc game in the @IsthmianLeague that forced its cancellation?
Todayโs game has been called off. We apologise for the late cancellation, information on a new date will be delivered in due course. #BarArmy

An enjoyable afternoon in the @ComCoFL with my colleagues Harry and Wegs. โ๐พI haven't Refereed at @ashfordtownmx for a long time. They now have very nice 3g pitch. ๐๐พ The game between @pfcvictoria and @oxheyjetsfc was competitive and played in the right spirit. ๐๐พ #Respect

In fairness it appears harsh...however we have no idea what's been said. We have no idea if the player was gobby do we. ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ What advice would YOU offer to a player IF he's just been yellow carded for dissent? A Get away from the Ref ASAP B Carry on arguing/make contact ๐

WOW just seen this. He's basically given himself a Red Card and then clapped when it's appeared. What's fascinating is his Skipper and lots of other @WestHam players are there. Would it be unreasonable to have expected one of them to get him away from the Referee QUICKLY?
"It's ridiculous behaviour" โ Lucas Paquetรก is SENT OFF for talking himself into a second booking.

Yep...the majority are correct. ๐๐พ If you hear someone question an Assistant Referee today, as to why he's not put his flag up... Remember 1. They have NO IDEA as to exactly the angle he has versus the Referees. 2. They have NO IDEA what the Referees instructions are. ๐
In the clip below ๐๐พ I give a decision for a push, BUT my Assistant is much closer. Many in football are of the belief that if an Assistant is closer then it's more credible for them to give the decision. Because my AR was closer should I as Referee stayed out of it?

The individual who runs the @CarshaltonA_FC account seems to be of the belief that if an Assistant Referee is closer to a challenge than a Referee, his opinion (IF DIFFERENT) should trump the Referees. Do you agree with them? #Angles

"In a sport where a degree of abuse toward match officials has too often become normalised" ๐ "The extensive coverage it has received" "It has sparked important conversations about HOW match officials are treated" Some of the words from @AFCRD
