Just registered as I thought this may be a good place for footy nostalgia. I am a referee at grassroots level and have been for around 20 years on and off as well as getting a few coaching badges too. Really been enjoying old Match of The Day,The Big Match and Kick Off episodes on youtube from my younger years and lamenting the old refs.They may have been part time but I still think many were better than our current crop of professional whistlers. A big Liverpool fan and from the area so looking forward to any Evertonians still complaining about Clive Thomas in 1977. Yes this really happens! Nice meeting you all. #Post#: 58546-------------------------------------------------- Re: Just Popped in to Say Hello By: bmb Date: January 19, 2023, 8:09 am --------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to the forum.
