It makes me seethe

I don't enjoy it as much as i used to.

I refuse to reff or run the line and I stand as far away from everyone as I can. I can't understand what is so important about winning an U11s league - show me a team that improves its skill over the course of a season any day.

They keep trying to drum this 'respect' thing in but it only seems to work for one or two games after everyone's had the letter.

I'd ban a load of coaches and parents- that would soon sort it.

If they keep teaching kids to do aimless pumps out of defense I'll end up with a hernia
