254 opportunities
Oliver and Steve. Hilton has been a referee for some years, but it was the first time he had memorized so much information before a game. Some are fresh, but there are also some feelings. Oliver, in particular, felt it the most.
He has also been a referee for more than a year and does some homework before the game. But it's just a familiar face. Never like Jack. Oliver really learned, and it's no wonder that Jack was able to succeed.
As an ambitious Oliver, he learned to be the fourth referee for Jack today, and he has not yet started enforcing the law.
Therefore, the two of them recited this information seriously and carefully.
Neither wanted to miss the opportunity.
Jack, this pier everyone wants to lean onto.
Oliver and Jack already have a good relationship. While Oliver has quite a few supporters behind him, Jack is clearly the best. Even if Jack is not the first person in the English refereeing world now, Jack is definitely the most bullish figure in the English refereeing world. In the future, Jack will become the veritable first person in the English refereeing world, and it is definitely no joke.
Although Oliver is conceited, he also knows that if he wants to stand out in the refereeing world, it is not okay to have no one to take care of him.
Referees and players are different.
Although players will also encounter situations where they are banned by the coach because of disagreement with the coach. Or it is a situation where you are not in agreement with the club and are banned by the club. But for most players, as long as you have the strength and the talent, you can see those things in you.
Whether you performed well in the game or not, many people have a very intuitive understanding.
It is precisely because of this that even if a player cannot get ahead in his original club, as long as he has the ability. It is also possible to transfer to other clubs. You can even go to a foreign club, anyway, as long as you have the strength, you don't have to worry about having no place to play. European football has developed for so many years. There are nearly 100 clubs in the five major leagues alone.
It can really be said that there is no place to leave people here.
Therefore, the player relies on his ability to stand out. As long as you have the ability, you don't have to be afraid of not having Bole. You're even in the lower leagues. As long as you do well in the lower leagues, you will be able to attract the attention of the top leagues.
But the referee is different.
The circle of referees is relatively closed. Speaking of English referees, the top elite group, that is, the Premier League referees, generally only have eighteen, and no more than twenty at most.
And as long as there is no vacancy in the Premier League referees, then the referees below will not be able to stand up. If there are no vacancies in the Premier League referee position for a year, then there will be no new Premier League referee for that year. If there are no vacancies for 10 years, there will be no new Premier League referees for 10 years. As a result, there are countless referees waiting to become Premier League referees below. And you're an English referee. There is only one road in Huashan.
Either try to become a Premier League referee or stay in the lower leagues. You don't have any chance to go the other way.
It is precisely because of this situation that nepotism in the referee industry is very serious. Now he has become a Premier League referee, whether he is a famous or ordinary Premier League referee, he has his own connections in the English refereeing community. Without that, you wouldn't be a Premier League referee at all.
Either it's Jack, and the teacher has a bullish teacher. Either Webb, who has a well-connected dad in the English refereeing community. No matter how bad it is, it's like Atkinson's. Have a bullish referee friend like Jack.
After all, there are so many qualified and capable referees in the Championship, why should you become a Premier League referee. It's not because you have someone behind you to support you.
It is this situation in the refereeing world, so the referees in the lower leagues have to find a dock to lean onto. This is especially true for a referee with a big goal like Oliver. Now Jack values himself. Oliver didn't want to pass up this opportunity.
As for Steve. This is especially true of Hilton.
At the age of twenty-nine, he is still working as an assistant referee in League One, and there is basically no chance if he develops normally. Even if you have been working as an assistant referee, it will take many years to become an assistant referee in the Premier League. That's it for the rest of my life.
Even if no one helps. Maybe you won't be able to become an assistant referee in the Premier League for ten years.
Steve. Hilton was not reconciled.
Napoleon said that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. It doesn't matter if this statement is true or not. But people have an upward heart. Every person in the world has dreams and aspirations in their own field.
Although failed in reality. Slowly losing dreams.
But everybody is going to be very motivated and want to go up.
Steve. That's the case with Hilton. It's just Steve. Hilton doesn't have any connections and can't grow. This time it was shit luck and made it to the refereeing team for the Jack Officiating League Cup match.
Steve. Hilton was eager to grasp it.
Jack wants to help a Premier League referee, help a Premier League referee with something, and it must be a lot of difficulties. After all, he became a Premier League referee and was already a top figure in the English refereeing world. Jack can help a little at best, and if it's something important, Jack needs to bother.
But a small assistant referee goes without saying.
Especially an assistant referee in a lower league. In Jack's position, move your mouth casually, Steve. Hilton was able to become an assistant referee in the Championship. Among the referees in the Championship, there are not a few who want to tie up with Jack. They give it to Steve by random person. Hilton's olive branch could easily make him officiate in the Championship. Even as long as Jack wants to, within a year or two Jack has a way to get Steve. Hilton became an assistant referee in the Premier League. This is Jack now.
So Steve. Hilton is also very serious.
Hope to make a good impression on Jack.
So, although they were surprised, they still had to do these things before the game. But they all take it seriously.
Jack smiled as he looked at them.
Steve. Hilton is just by mistake, and many of the assistant referees who worked with Jack are the current Premier League assistant referees. And most of them are international assistant referees. So none of them will follow Jack to the second round of the League Cup.
Jack can mess around on his own, but they still have to save face. Come to the second round of the League Cup, they won't do it.
So Steve. Hilton had a chance to be Jack's second assistant referee. Because it's the first time we've met. Plus at the age of twenty-nine and still working as an assistant referee in League One, Jack didn't care much about him.
Jack's focus is on Craig. Posen and Michael. Oliver.
Craig. Posen and Michael. Oliver is a very serious young referee for Jack. Jack came up with such detailed pre-game information today. It's about getting them to have some good habits when they're in the lower leagues. Learn how to be a good referee.
Any success is a matter of effort.
A good referee. In order to successfully officiate a game, it is necessary to understand the technical characteristics and personality characteristics of the coaches and players of both teams. In this way, you can have a bottom in your heart and better control the rhythm of the game.
This was Jack's lesson to them.
…………
"It's really Jack. Plum. ”
"At first, people thought it was an April Fool's joke."
The narrator sees Jack appear on the field, and the two tease each other. A few days before the match, the referee committee will announce the referees for the match. If anyone finds a problem, they can file a complaint before the game.
So a lot of people saw Jack's name on the list of referees for the second round of the League Cup.
At that time, many people were surprised. Some people even think that it is the same name and surname, after all, the name Jack is too common in England. But the surname behind it is unique and belongs to Jack. That's what lets everyone know. It turned out that it was really Jack who was coming to officiate the second round of the League Cup.
Now I saw myself at the scene, although I knew that Jack would enforce the game, but it really surprised the commentator.
Jack is really here.
Such a low-level league team game really waited for Jack. Jack is an English referee who has officiated in World Cup finals and is currently England's No. 1 referee.
Why would you come here to enforce such a game.
A lot of people were very surprised.
As descendants of the empire on which the sun never sets, the British always had some arrogance in them. In the face of others, always think that you are the best. Therefore, for a person like Jack, who has officiated in the World Cup final and can be regarded as a contributor to the English referee, the English media is still quite face-saving. Likes to wear a top hat for Jack. Therefore, fans are also familiar with Jack.
Bratford and Luton Town are all teams in the lower leagues.
They were also very surprised to see a top Premier League referee like Jack. So much so that when Jack came out, the fans gave Jack a lot of applause.
After all, the World Cup is not long. Jack still has enough heat.
Deterrent.
That is, Jack has enough deterrence at the moment. For the players of Bratford and Luton, Jack is a behemoth, a top figure in the world of refereeing. Full of deterrence. They didn't dare to question Jack's punishment too much.
For a referee, as long as there is enough authority and enough deterrence. Then it's very easy to do. What a referee fears most is that he has no prestige, once the referee loses everyone's trust. Then no matter how good the referee's performance is and how strong his ability is. Nor can it be properly enforced.
As a referee who has officiated at a World Cup final, the only thing that doesn't exist is this problem. People still trust Jack very much.
So the game was still very easy.
The players on both sides were very obedient. Of course, Jack also appropriately changed his law enforcement style. There are a lot of differences between the lower leagues and the Premier League. The biggest difference is that the body hits more and more violently.
If Jack's enforcement in the Premier League were followed, the game would not have been played at all.
So Jack relaxed a little.
But for additional actions and dangerous actions, Jack is very strict. For Jack, players can have body charges. After all, football is a man's sport. However, a physical collision cannot become a dangerous action.
"Jack's enforcement game is really overkill."
The commentator watched the game go very well and also began to joke. With two teams in the lower leagues, it was really overkill to have Jack come to enforce the law. The narrator didn't understand what Jack was doing today.
Is it to enforce the game?
"You've worked hard."
In the first half, there were no waves. It can even be said that the highlight of the first half of the game, there is no Jack on the field, which is more concerning. The director is also frequently given to Jack during the game. Jack has appeared in front of the camera more times than the players on both sides. As Jack made his way to the lounge, he nodded to a few of his referees.
"Nope."
What's so hard about.
Several people felt that the game was easy.
There was Jack on the spot and the players were very obedient. The coaches of both teams had a limited number of complaints and did not put little pressure on the fourth referee. also has Jack as a backstop, and the two assistant referees are also much bolder. When a person is bold and relaxed, the performance is also very good.
And they are not afraid of any mistakes. Jack's ability is there, and Jack's requirements for assistant referees are very simple. That's a decisive penalty, and knowing is knowing, and not knowing is not knowing.
It was probably relaxation, so the two assistant referees did well.
Jack was also more satisfied with the performance of several people.
When a few people slowly entered the lounge, Jack sat on the couch. Then look at their first assistant referee Craig. Posen said: "Craig, you come to enforce the game in the second half. ”
"Me?" (To be continued.) )
