Bruegel the Elder Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Surely it is the referee, Bodmin Committee, S.W.P. League and the C.C.F.A. who should be feeling embarrassed, they have the power to do something about it and do nothing! It's not as if it's a new phenomenon, it's been going on for years.

Have often heard him call the officials embarrassing, but nobody is more embarrassing than him. Darren, if you don't know, it is spelt R E S P E C T. Quite simple really, but you don't even know the meaning, let alone spell it.

Clubman Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Leedsunited is very quiet, unlike Bodmin's Manager. Most SWPL Prem games have an assessor marking the match officials, All to do with a shortage Refs for supply leagues, lots of rapid promotions for young referees who have not built up experience. You cannot fast track people to meet FA targets. Haven't looked to see who referred this game but it should have been a team of 3 not just the referee. Therefore any criticism should be levelled at all 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedsunited Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Football can sometimes get very passionate, over heated maybe. Emotions run high. But in some cases in local football spectators have been assaulted by players, referees have been assaulted by players, so to moan about Gilby's language when other clubs have actually carried out physical abuse is nothing to worry about. You can watch a game at the Priory without that worry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldy Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Then do something about it when you are there. Read the ground regulations re language.

secretscout Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 You are right leedsunited, but that still doesn't justify Darrens foul mouth. He is well known for it, a lot of people mention it on here, yet nothing ever gets done about it by match officils. Are they afraid of the stigma surrounding Darren and the "big guns" of Bodmin Town? Another manager for me who needs to be mentioned is Nick Marker at Ivybridge. I have been to see a few of their games this season and from the stand I can hear his abuse he fires at the officials. Not covering himself in any glory either! I would love to take my grandson to watch some games with me but feel I would be badly judged if I were to take a 5 year old to listen such awful language for 90 minutes. Authorities need to look at this and matchday officials need to have the balls to stamp it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Pethick Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Probably a very different , and possibly controversial, view to others expressed here, but myself and the Bald One used to enjoy a manager having a good old tantrum and meltdown.

baldy Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 If a spectator at every ground made a complaint to the referee, he is obliged to put it in his report. If the local football authority refuse to act, they are in dereliction of their duties and then it can be referred to the FA. Respect I think it's called, in name only mind.

We Two Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Do the foul mouthed people at some football grounds feel a sense of security because their expletives are accepted as a part of the present football scene, and they are unlikely to be taken to task ( which seems to be the case ) and so they can lose control of their foul mouths without recourse, or do the same people walk down the streets of their towns screaming abuse at all and sundry. I don't think so, because they are too scared of being arrested for public disorder, which just goes to show where the blame is and what CAN be done by all of the people listed on this thread if they were so minded. No doubt there is the '' if you don't like it stay away brigade '' but why is it supposed to be acceptable at a football ground but not in the road outside? any reason ?

Agree......to single our Gilbert last night is nonsense. The language used by both sets of players towards the officials last night was appalling. Referees could eliminate this if they chose to (or indeed are instructed to). But clearly there's no desire to from the powers that be. Clubs moan about low attendances, but if I had young children instead of teenagers, I wouldn't take them to local grassroots games, but (sadly) would be watching on TV or, hate to say it, Argyle....... the professional game wouldn't tolerate some of what was said last night, so why accept it at local level.

THE BALD ONE Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Parkway made it clear last season that their intension was to take promotion. This was not to be and again this season will take promotion if they are in the correct position at the end. As for large budgets etc , who really knows what the expenditure actually is at all clubs ? Did Man City , Chelsea increase their budget to win the league ? I think you will find they did. Is that wrong ? If it were the team you supported , you would say no it is not. Parkway have accumulated a higher standard of player this season compared with last season , with the end goal of getting promotion. Lets see how it goes and then see what happens in the future.

We all accept it playing Argyle Reserves and can consider Parkway a bit the same - they have the budget and purpose to use it. Where real frustration comes in from supporters of other clubs, on massively smaller budget, is where teams in this league pay out, aledgedly high sums for the sole purpose of winning / doing well the league. There is a limited number of quality players (real standout, game winning players) at this level - smaller clubs cannot compete and you end up with some clubs struggling against teams who spend more for their bench than the other team pays on their starting 11. This is probably why many contributors 'love' to see some of these bigger spending clubs not doing so well. Spectators know when teams do well because they play as a team, well coached with camaraderie - as opposed to quality players collecting a pay cheque, showing little respect for their opponents and leaving straight after they have collected their envelope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, there is plenty of talent in the league - it's developed players to go and play for Truro, Tiverton, Taunton etc. whilst even the mid-table teams in the SWPL have gone on to compete in the VASE and get through to later stages. Tavy is also a fine example of commitment and drive to achieve more. Granted, Parkway has the monopoly now with some of the very best, however, that doesn't mean that paying players the equivalent of what is nearly a living wage is the right thing to be doing when it's unheard of in the league above.

WendronOfficial Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 I wonder how some of these would fare in the Trelawny and Duchy leagues with the new sin bin/Temp. Dismissal action. Maybe not applicable to managers but in the games I have witnessed there has been more respect and mature conversation had between officials and players or managers. Both 'sides' (players/managers, officials) have seemed to improved clarity and reason without having to enforce the law too often. I hope it continues and may be an idea to roll out in higher leagues over the next few seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only a small step to accepting physical abuse against officials other players and even spectators. Yes Rob 1974/AmberM, S.W.P.L. games are no longer a place to take your family, to the detriment of gates and clubs. I agree Wendron Official that sin bins when/if implemented at this level could make a difference, but only if the referees have the balls and the backup to impose them.

Bruegel the Elder Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 I take note both of the outrageous (living wage level) payments to P.P. players, and also the fact that promotion only comes to them that pay vast amounts. The truth of that is evident throughout much of the pyramid. My conclusion is; let them get on with it, the sooner they clear off to the higher pastures the better.

Income is income and expenditure is expenditure and if paid to an individual is subject to tax and insurance. No matter by whom or what method it is paid, in cash or kind or indeed "expenses", H.M.R.C. will consider it a payment by the Club and it is the Club and sometimes the player who will be prosecuted, fined and have a considerable amount of back tax to repay. Any number of professional and semiprofessional clubs have been placed into bankruptcy as a result of H.M.R.C. investigations and their outcome. Do check this out with your accountant.
