Anyone ever seen a 0 minutes, happens all the time on the Continent & bizarrely if a half runs fluently over here there still is always a ludicrous 'mandatory' 1+ added on
The referee decides . Absolutely one million % certain.
Ok well I've asked my mate anyway, awaiting a reply, the rules and making a general understanding on the day can sometimes be completely different.
Thought the ref was generally quite good and allowed the game to flow.
I probably know who you're friend is, if he was the fourth official for the Palace game? He used to coach me at the Sussex Academy.
No he didn't do Palace, but he's done the Amex and done us at away games too, including League 1... as much as I would like to say, you understand I can't.

When England beat San Marino 8-0, there were no minutes of added time at the end of the match, even though there probably should've been 2 or 3. I think when the scoreline starts getting large they don't see the need to add lots.
The 30secs per sub/goal is a guideline only, it can be longer if subs take up more time, or shorter less time taken. Same with goals.
Though I thought it would be longer because of the injury and because the ref also made a bit of a meal of letting orlandi know taking a shot after he had been blown off side wasn't going to be accepted again, and that he was adding time on so it wouldn't be a waste.

Missed an absolute shocker though when the under pressure Blackpool player blatantly kicked the ball into touch at the north west end. Not only did he give the throw in to Blackpool but then was gonna let the Blackpool player creep up 10 yards until half of the WSL started gesturing that he was miles forward of where he should have been.

He incensed me from the start when he booked Greer after about 2 mins for a nothing foul but let other worse challenges by their players go unpunished.
The referee also failed to make Taylor Fletcher leave the pitch after he was injured so will be heavily makes down by the assessor at the game yesterday.
You mean the incident where the player got in behind and Greer grabbed him with one arm round his waist and the other over his shoulder and pulled him back, 'taking one for the team'? That was a yellow card all day long. No one can complain about it.
Won't get marked down for that. Keepers aren't required to leave the pitch following treatment, and GTF was injured in the same incident, therefore it would seem manifestly unfair to make him go off and leave Blackpool a man short in such circumstances.
