Yeah I hear ya. I've had some referees over the years that I wonder how they can do it.
I recently got certified to referee for the USSF (United States Soccer Federation). You only a 70 to pass the test.
The refs and the linesmen get alot of stick in the league of my local team, which is part-time, but they do make some very odd decisions.
This season on a windy evening the keeper took a goal kick and the wind blew the ball back into his area and he cleared it and no other player had touched...
Grand opening was pushed back once again, we'll just say it's TBA for now. We are still waiting on the completion of some custom development that has been in the works.
