One Team In Keynsham Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) Walsall manager saying the fourth official should have told the red it was red for freeman. Is he allowed to do that? Per the source of all that is true, it appears to be in his remit: Fourth official[edit] The fourth official assists the referee in a variety of tasks, and may be called upon to replace another match official. The fourth official is a recent addition to the officiating crew. English referee and administrator Ken Aston introduced the practice of having a named replacement referee in 1966, but the International Football Association Board (IFAB) did not officially create the position until 1991, and listed only areas of responsibility. The fourth official is simply instructed to assist the referee at all times, and his duties are largely at the discretion of the referee. His usual duties can be broadly divided into assisting functions and a replacement function (see below). The fourth official typically has a table a short distance from the touchline between the two teams' technical areas, however his positioning is not defined by the Laws of the Game. Fourth official indicating there should be a minimum of two minutes of injury-time played In usual practice, the fourth official assists the referee in the following ways: Assisting with administrative functions before, during and after the match; Assessment of players' equipment; Ensuring substitutions are conducted in an orderly manner; Notifying the referee of the details of the substitution, by means of numbered boards or electronic displays (where supplied); Notifying the teams and spectators, by means of numbered boards or electronic displays where supplied, of the amount of time added on at the end of each half, after having been advised of this by the referee; Acting as the contact point between the match officiating crew and any non-participants (such as stadium managers, security personnel, broadcast crews, and ball retrievers); Maintaining decorum in the teams' technical areas and interceding in situations where coaches, bench personnel, or substitutes become agitated; In practice, the fourth official becomes a key member of the officiating team, who can watch the field and players and advise the Referee on situations that are going on out of his sight. The fourth official keeps an extra set of records, and helps make sure the Referee does not make a serious error such as cautioning the wrong player, or giving two cautions to the same player and forgetting to send off the player.[1] The fourth official played a significant role in the 2006 World Cup Final when fourth official Luis Medina Cantalejo informed refereeHoracio Elizondo of the headbutt of France's Zinedine Zidane against Marco Materazzi, resulting in Elizondo showing Zidane a red card and sending him from the field. French manager Raymond Domenech accused Cantalejo of using the replay board to initiate the process that led to Zidane's ejection, which would have broken FIFA rules, but FIFA maintained that Cantalejo did not breach any rules and acted properly.[2] Edited January 29, 2015 by One Team In Keynsham Quote Link to comment

Kingswoodactor Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 Have we played this badly in any other game this season? Or is this the worst? We're being pulled apart through our Midfield, no second balls are being won and it's like a different side to the one on Sunday. Quote Link to comment
