This months meeting will see the return of Alan Wiley to Erewash Valley. Alan is amongst the select group of English referees who officiate on the Barclays Premiership and has also refereed both the FA and Carling cup finals. Those who caught Alan's presentation last year will vouch for what an informative and entertaining speaker Alan is. So don't miss this opportunity to hear the thoughts of someone that many people (me included) consider to be the best referee in the Premiership. Alan is a smashing, friendly guy who is open to questions and is sure to provide a great evening. The meeting will start at 7.30pm at the Robin social club, The New Manor Ground, Ilkeston Town FC, Awsworth Road, Ilkeston. All existing and potential new members are most welcome to come down.

Wrist Bands « Result #10 on Aug 24, 2007, 10:35pm »
Came across an interesting scenario tonight on a MRA prem game. Want to see what you guys think.
The player had a wrist band on and refused to remove it as it was a medical band - had details of an illness and how to treat in an emergency - i believe like a diabetic band. Did not want to open myself up to any legal matters so i let him play with it on but asked that it was well taped so posed no threat to him or other players.
Is there any thing in law that covers this and if not should we be bringing it to the attention of the governing bodies? What would you guys do???????? It was taped with clear tape as well!!
