Chapter 20 Clattenburg



4:30 pm London time.

Inside the referee's lounge at Stamford Bridge.

Ivan and another linesman he will be working with have arrived here.

Here they will change into referee uniforms and check the gadgets they will carry with them.

On the other side is the fourth official wearing referee uniform, who needs to check whether he is carrying any red or yellow cards.

Just like players, where there are starting players there will be substitutes. The referee also has his substitute, and that person is the fourth official.

Therefore, they also carry red and yellow cards with them in case of emergency.

On the field, they are responsible for supervising the coaches of both teams and their teams. During the game, except for the celebration after a goal, the coaches cannot leave the area designated for them.

What? Do you think this is necessary? The coaches of the major teams are not children. Is it necessary to keep an eye on them all the time?

Sorry, some head coaches get excited and beat themselves, not to mention crossing their own area to beat the other head coach :)

So there is actually an unspoken rule in football that the fourth official is responsible for being scolded.

They are specifically responsible for bearing the anger of the two head coaches who are dissatisfied with the referee's decision.

In addition to this responsibility, they also have another well-known responsibility, which is to hold up the signs for extra time in the first and second half and for substitutions.

People who don't know the truth will definitely think they have it easy.

As for holding up a sign, it seems like everyone can do it!

However, if you meet a big man like Sir Alex Ferguson or Mourinho, your self-control will be improved a lot after a game :)

The referees in the Premier League are a sight to behold and they are particularly famous in Europe.

It is simply all the rage across Europe, setting off a trend in people’s impression of the refereeing world.

The fourth official of the Premier League is professionally responsible for being scolded by the head coach.

The linesmen in the Premier League are responsible for running in a straight line until they vomit blood, and for making random offside calls.

The referee of the Premier League is responsible for wearing blind glasses and running around the field, dominating the game.

#Just ask you if you are afraid.

Alvin is not afraid. He has a system and he is mysteriously confident.

Therefore, he has none of the nervousness that other referees who have just landed in the Premier League have.

Lines referee Trim looked at Ivan with admiration several times.

This young man was Ivan who replaced him earlier.

He performed well in that game, which made him, who was also a linesman but had not become a referee in the Premier League for several years, very envious.

Not to mention the talent or experience in refereeing.

The opponent has calmness and composure that many young referees do not have.

This alone is enough to win over a lot of people.

From the moment he put on the black referee uniform, it seemed as if he had been in the refereeing world for many years and had experienced countless ups and downs.

Ivan's temperament when enforcing the law is confusing, but his face can expose those who are confused to their original form.

He is not yet 20 years old.

Comparing people with each other is so annoying.

The English Referees Committee is now gradually tending to train young referees.

They began to realize that the younger the referee, the more fearless he was on the court and the more daring he was to make the call.

On the contrary, those famous referees who have been famous for a long time, although experienced and accustomed to many ups and downs, have become more and more sophisticated when officiating the matches. They are hesitant and always like to mix some other inexplicable things into their penalty standards.

The reform intention of the English Referees Committee is an opportunity for Trim, who is still young in the refereeing field.

Isn't it the same for Alvin?

Trim had only seen one game refereed by Irvin, and that was after the game, when he was replaying the video in order to write the penalty report required by the referee committee, and he watched Irvin's performance in passing.

Even though he couldn't tell anything from one game, now that they were close together, he could vaguely see some shocking things.

Let’s not talk about strength first. First of all, if you want to show off, you have to scare others, right?

Otherwise, which of those players, especially the difficult big-name players, will obey you?

They will just think you are easy to bully, and when they are dissatisfied with your judgment, they will come and attack you.

If you want to be a referee, first, you need to be able to run, and second, you need to make the players respect you from the bottom of their hearts and not dare to question your judgment easily!

Many people ran down.

But every year, thousands of linesmen are eliminated because they don’t have a big heart.

One difference between referees and players is that they believe the one who remains is the king!

It attracted doubts before the game, opposition during the game, and negative reviews after the game.

Maybe this referee was originally quite capable, but because of the criticism from the outside world, he gradually developed a retreat mentality that he "really doesn't seem to be good enough".

Physical torture, mental torture, spiritual torture.

Only those who can endure and succeed can become the referee.

And among referees, too many stop at the national level.

If you want to be an international referee, you can’t just “endure” it.

That requires a recommendation from the English Football Association.

That would require FIFA approval.

That takes talent.

Yes, talent, don’t think that only those who play football need it.

The scary thing is that he still saw this talent in the young man, Alvin.

He had also come across Chelsea's games before, and he was very familiar with Irwin's football skills.

Even if the latter changed his career, the aura of success in him remained unchanged.

I can only say that there are always some people in this world who make you unable to even feel jealous.

Trim had a vague premonition.

If Irvin continues to perform steadily and brilliantly, he is very likely to break the unwritten rule of "making it through" in the refereeing world.

“Crunch!”

The sound of the door opening interrupted Trim's thoughts.

The people in the room stopped what they were doing at the same time and looked at the person who walked in.

The man had an old-looking face, with faint signs of thinning hair on his head mixed with some white hair. He took big steps and exuded confidence from head to toe.

Ivan recognized him. It was Mark Clattenburg, the referee of this game, the legendary giant killer and draw master.

When he referees a match, he is particularly keen on helping weaker teams and suppressing stronger teams. In his opinion, a draw is a very friendly ending and neither team will be too sad. (?)

He arrived at the perfect time, including the time to greet his team and change clothes, and the few of them arrived at the player tunnel where two rows of players were already lined up at perfect timing.

Even... the referee had time to ask for an autograph from former European Golden Boy Irving, saying that his wife asked for it and he wanted to take it back as a souvenir.

…I always feel that this referee who has become an international referee since 2007 is not very reliable.

Ivan followed him, thinking silently.

But several other referees seemed very excited.

What a great opportunity to work with international referee Clattenburg and learn from him!

The author has something to say: Author (handing over the microphone): If Alvin is refereeing your game and he is about to give you a red card to send you off the field, what will you do?

Rooney: Haha, this is impossible. I scored a goal based on my own strength, so why do I need to commit a foul? If so, it means our friendship has come to an end.

Cech: How could I, a good goalkeeper who abides by the rules, be sent off by Alvin? ! Doesn't exist!

Kaka (thinking): Best friends know each other best, right? That kind of thing will never happen. I believe him.

Pepe (horrified face): I'm sorry, I was wrong, please give me another chance!

Ramos (tearful, hugging Casillas' thighs): Igor, I was wrong. Next time I will remember to stay away from our penalty area! ...By the way, did I take a penalty kick before I was sent off? (quietly)

Cassie (sneers and shakes him off): You'd better get off quickly, or you'd better stop hanging around in front of me and blocking my view.

Marcelo (hugging Ronaldo's thigh): Robot! Good brother! Please beg for mercy for me!

C Ronaldo (pushing his friend’s hands apart): Why do you want me to be sent off? I obviously didn't wear any perfume!

Ferguson: I have a lot of experience in going to the stands. I want to ask my old rival Mr. Mourinho what he would do.

Mourinho (expressionless): This will never happen. I fully believe in the fairness of his judgment. Of course if he punishes me to the stands for no reason (thinks about it, calls his daughter Tita) Is this the man you want to marry in the future? !

Guti (haha): I shouldn’t encounter this situation recently, after all, I have been sitting on the bench.

Raul: ...No matter what you say, the jersey still needs to be changed.

Ozil (unconvinced): I think those who violated me are more likely to go down!

Cute Messi (looking aggrieved): I fell down, and I can only stand up after the referee makes the decision for me! QAQ

Ivan (resisting the urge to put his hands in his trouser pockets): Put them all down, and it will be quiet. →_→
