Disciplinary hearings
Back in August, as assistant referee in a combined counties fixture (to remain nameless for the teams), along with the referee, I reported a team for misconduct in relating to words and gestures towards me following the end of the match in which that team lost. They were, being polite, nasty.
This hearing has been postponed 5 times. Once when all parties arrived costing the Surrey FA money as they had to pay officials expenses.
Just got told that is has once again been postponed and next likely slot is February. 6-7 months after the event.
Just goes to show how long these things take when you consider the recent Alan McCormack hearing, and the Alan Judge one for his inhaler before that.
