Re: Referee abuse at grassroots level

Swearing (or other abuse)
In front of the ref, not a problem unless it breaches other rules
About the ref or at the ref = yellow or red card depending on what was said.

Double the ban each time it is repeated. So3 games for first offence, 6 for the second, 12 for the 3rd.
Clubs will soon get the message

Same for dissent.
A player can present his case that there was a foul, but as soon as the ref says, well that's not how I saw it, I'm not giving a foul that is it. You have to accept the decision.

I'd like to see a crackdown on timewasting as well.
I'd like them to list for a few weeks all the timewasting offences in games.
Then start awarding free kicks and bookings for it. I think it might need an extra official just to administer it
