    Default What players really mean when talking to the ref

    Macca Sports
    'I got the ball Ref' really means I could have fouled the player but I did not care one jot if it was careless or dangerous as I just wanted to win the ball which I did and here is the ball to prove it.
    'He went for the ball ref' means yes it was a foul, has caught the player and we can do without him being on a yellow, in case he does it again
    'Foul throw Ref' That TI looks different and it would great to get easy possession without having to challenge for the ball
    'Never a free kick' means that the player did not see what happened and we now have to defend.
    'That's soft Ref' means yes it was a free kick.
    'In the Back Ref' I felt contact from someone, not sure if its legal or not and it must be a foul as I did not win the ball.
    'Keep up with play Ref' the Ref hasn't give us any fouls and if I get into the penalty area there is a chance of getting something.
    'Offside Ref' means that I'm too lazy to run and defend and it easier to stick up a hand an look for an easy FK.
    'Keep an eye Ref' means that my opponent is faster and stronger and I need a bit of assistance at set plays
    'How many times Ref' means give the player a booking and we can do with an advantage of an extra man as he might get sent off for another tackle.
    'Never touched him ref' means Yes I did something unfair and I don't know the laws.
    'Where's he taking it from' means we are not ready to defend.
    'Ball's rolling ref' means they have caught us out with a quick free kick and it would be great to stop play.
    'On the whistle ref' means that we would like to take our time to set up the wall and for our player standing over the ball not to get booked for stopping the FK.
    ' You must be joking' means I don't know the laws, I've lost possession, given away a FK and now we have to defend a free kick and I'd rather the ref took the blame.
    'Hand ball' means the ball hit his hand and we shout every time the ball hits the hand even when its clearly not deliberate

    Am i right?
