Re: Ask me about being a FIFA-certified soccer referee
Yeti > IMHO because football is one of the most simple team games. You only have a few rules (comparing to rubgy, basketball, volleyball...) and basically everyone watching/being involved in a game thinks he could be better than the referee (I'm no exception). These simple rules are part of what makes football the most popular sport worldwide.
The only tricky rule, as said OP, is the positional offside when the guy isn't involved in the action.
BTW line of the week in french 1st division :
Coach of the team standing in the bottom : "Referring has been ugly blablablah"
Referee : "If he was in my place, there would be a riot every single week. If I was in his place... Well it couldn't be worse, as they are already on the bottom"
