Speaking of which Kevin, I didnt get your PM re that 'Jamaican Love Lengths Monthly' subscription site because my inbox has been full.

I wish it was because I was popular but it's just Alex PM'ing me daily with updates to his grudge list. I can't keep on top of it. Speaking of which your ears want to be burning tbh.

To be totally honest this place'd be nowt without people arguing the toss and calling each other. I love it, me.

Don't try blaming that on the hat.

Quiet, you're spoiling the thread. As long as you're gentle, I'll be quiet!

Quality marra! As a lifelong Newcastle fan also born and bred in Mcr I empathise with young Matthew greatly. I'm reporting you to the NSPCC as I type.

Bet there's a fair chance the policy is worded so that it doesnt cover them in the event that the challenge was effectively an assault tho. Which co-incidentally would be exactly the standard of challenge that'd need to occur for liability to be made out in the first place. So eg the policy is basically worthless. Mainly you see players go through the criminal injuries compensation board. Dont think you'd get owt the way you're suggesting. Very rare anyway I'd imagine. Lad who played in my league had his shin shattered in a challenge. He basically got paid out for loss of earnings for about 8 months. Perhaps it's just on a loss of earnings basis then. Limited liability re compensation (which is all theyre bothered about at the end of the day of course).

Pretty much spot on, though I don't think the disclaimers add anything to what the existing state of the law is in any event. It's just rehashing what case law already says so it wouldnt matter if you'd signed anything or not, they're basically redundant as documents. Jurisprudence on the duty owed by the referee has been developed in rugby in the case of Smoldon v Whitworth iirc and it would apply equally to football. Was that the one with about a million collapsed scrums and the broken neck? That was the only example I could think of in sport. Quite glad this is the case really, otherwise sport would totally change, I think I'd stop refereeing! Yeah thats the badger. The context was rugby but the legal principle that arises would be applicable to all organised sport. So eg in match where someone suffered an injury through a challenge which was effectively a proveable assault, that player would be liable. If you'd ref'd the match and you'd continuously let challenges of that nature go unpunished when it was within your power to stop it, then you'd also be liable as a ref. Think amatuer ref's worries tend to be more about the playability of a pitch tbh..but then in those circs it's usually the council that'd cop for it vicariously under the Occupiers Liability Act. Theyve got the money after all. Thats why you see more and more games getting called off on eg a Weds/Thursday after bad weather, when by the Sunday the pitch is perfectly playable.

Hey you're not far off the mark there Wacky, was up for a corner one day against Dudley & Weetslade and the fucka marking me tried to finger my bumhole, lost the plot and nutted the dirty fuck and got sent off for my trouble. I'm gonna gan up Dudley the neet and sniff all the geezers finger in the pubs and clubs to track the bastard down! Away and shite. Your prostate's more thumbed than the lastest Harry Potter.

Bit of a petty post tbf. That's a joke btw. Before you get your French knickers in a twist. I was thinking out loud really alex, wasn't having a go at any one in particular, its just a general feel I have about this forum lately thats all. I've said my bit and thats it now. Man: Yes, but I came here for an argument!! Angry man: OH! Oh! I'm sorry! This is abuse!
