Not really sure why you would expect SWFA not to help when asked by the FAW

SWFA cup finals are for the refs you mention always have been

Not token gestures? No doubt you and others will be quick to point out if anyone makes mistakes on these fixtures

@aaron_eales @TerryShrieves Then how will you win? You think players will respect ex players but not police officers? And that all of the current refs can’t be educated or improve in any way they are just doomed and should be take out? What a ridiculous take

[Bridgend Referees Society @BridgendReferee]

@aaron_eales @TerryShrieves That’s an interesting take. Ex players who try to cheat and don’t know the laws? A lot of referees are teachers or police officers do these professions meet your criteria for positions with authority? Also ex players won’t necessarily have that skill set?

[Bridgend Referees Society @BridgendReferee]

@aaron_eales @TerryShrieves What do you suggest should be done to “improve the standards of officiating”?

Encouraging more to take up the whistle would help but potentially posts like this would make anyone think twice eh?

We are aware of a video circulating on SM of an incident at a junior game yesterday. We’re supporting the referee of the fixture and the video has been sent to the relevant authorities. If anyone was witness or has additional footage we encourage you to send it to the SWFA

@RefereeSouth Captain must nominate another player to go off in the GKs place
