Ed, Just as a matter of interest as I've always wanted to know, how do you keep track of the time to be added on and is it just down to yourself to make a judgement or do you actually accumulate time on another stopwatch?

There have been several such cautions in the WC so far. The other thing that a referee can do is add time. Added time is for substitutions, injuries, and any other delays. At the level I work, many fields have bushes on at least one side, and there are delays when the ball gets kicked in and has to be located and retrieved. Unless the game is a blowout, I usually add time for things like that. If I see a team that is up by a goal walking slowly to get the ball after it leaves the field in an obvious effort to waste time, I will add that time back in, and let them know that I'm doing it in an effort to keep the game moving. -- Ed Leafe -- http://leafe.com -- http://dabodev.com [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
