fees/fines

just a quick query as the wether its possible ( or could be in the future) to pay any fines / fees as a direct bank transfer from a club account to league account?

Nice idea...might ring the fa " please can you set up a standing order from my account £8 a week please!!"

i know county fa were thinking about being able to pay online, but nothing ever came of it....

It is something we are happy to look at and consider

can i ask who gets fined if a referre does not show for a game?? is it the home team or the ref him/her self??

only asking as our ref never showed last night and on the fixture list its down as TBA, as we were the away team i hope we wont incurr another penalty or points deduction

I would need to refer the no-show to the Referees Secretary to get an idea of what happened.

Certainly the away side will not be penalised as the requirement (Rule 10 (D)) is for the home club Secretary to confirm the fixture with the opponents and the referee.

it was yes, we got a supporter to do it. bit of a shambles really

The League has got to accept responsibility for failing to appoint a referee on this occasion. It was a rescheduled game which was not in the original fixture booklet, and a breakdown in effective communication led to the situation.

Sincere apologies to both teams concerned.

Without wishing to deflect blame and criticism, perhaps the Home club should have realised in the days prior to the game that they had not been advised of the referee appointment and could therefore not carry out the required notification. This may have triggered a call to the Referees Secretary.
