Also people, age and mum jokes... are you serious. grow up and at least pretend to be adults!

not a job??? by the government taxation system it is not considered a job unless you are of a certain level and earning a certain amount. nonetheless, any materials needed (akin to anylisted "job") you can claim back through tax!!! so just cos the government doesnt take half of your pay doesnt make it any less of a job... you get paid to do something that provides an income... its a JOB!

becoming a referee is not like joing a club to play basketball. being a referee of any sport is a Job, plain and simple. for a job you get paid and the better yuo become the more money you get until you reach the top. it can be said quite simply, by anybody who has a job, that if they do it worng then they can expect to be repremanded by those around them to a certain extent. if i were to fail to do my job properly then it would be understandable that my collegues and those whom i work for or with in any fashion, would become hostile toward my lack of effort or ability and hence i would be fired. if the case may be that i was performing but others were just becoming abusive by no fault of my own, it then becomes time to face it like an adult and continue or move on. referees, young or old need to understand that whilst it is hard to have a game without them, they are not by anymeans the centre of that game, it does not revolve around them. they are there simply to do a job and do it properly.

my money is that mister "get a case of shut the f**k into you" is one of those refs that he so lovingly protects... how hypocritical of the lil fella. you'll be alright son, mommy will be there to hold you again one day!

before you make comments anon... learn to read the posting properly.

If they are in traing then they are in training, simple as that! if they were qualified to do the job then they would be wearing the grey shirt. people are paying money and have the right to get what they pay for. they pay to have qualified refereeing for their level of basketball. if you regarded this attitude to other situations "who me" you have no backing to your argument. are learner drivers allowed to drive by themselves just because they seemable can drive... no, they have to complete all of their training. do people get put into jobs without having the proper qualifications first... no, they complete thier degree or otherwise or perform under strict guidence and are overseen by more professionally qualified individuals.
