On Saturday an U12s football match had to be stopped, it had to be stopped because the referee (allegedly) was receiving abuse from adults. That referee was my son Conner, he was wearing a yellow armband that clearly stated he was under 18, and that he's a child himself. The adults were parents, parents of children playing in the match.
The adults thought it was acceptable to give abuse to a child during this match. I can tell you that the referee was scared and upset, but to his maturity, he carried on that game until the end and kept his head held high.
This incident has been reported and he has received overwhelming amounts of support from the football community.
He took all that support, got up on Sunday with his head held high -Played for his team & got Man Of Match 📷
