Next time something like this comes up - I will be doing what you were doing - recalling the procedures etc instead of worrying about other things. My bad!  I hope it was just the chaos of this time of year and not me beginning to lose it. |
I believe that this is a game management issue -- I DON'T MEAN OFFICIALS game management. Teams should be told when they arrive (visitors AND the referee team) where they can change/meet before the game, during the game and after the game. They should be led there. Otherwise, it is IMPOSSIBLE for the timer to meet his requirement of giving the teams a warning about timing and the start of a second half.
