Having triumphed in the County and Regional Volunteer of the Year category, the dynamic duo were put forward against seven other nominations from across England in a public vote. And at yesterday’s presentation ceremony at Wembley Stadium ahead of the Community Shield, it was revealed Pam, 76, and Roy, 77, had yet again beaten off the competition to land the People’s Choice Award. Surrey County FA Development Manager Caroline McRoyall accompanied the couple to the event and said: “People like Pam and Roy are the lifeblood of the game and without their dedication to football we simply wouldn’t have the nation- al sport we know and love.” The couple were presented with the People’s Choice Award by Sir Trevor Brook- ing, Sky Sports News’ presenter Hayley McQueen and broadcasting heavy- weight Jim Rosenthal. Their story began in 1967 when Pam and Roy formed Mayford Athletic Boys FC, stumping up £50 of their own money to get the club off the ground, a considera- ble sum in those days. The rest of the money to support the club was raised through garage and jumble sales and repairing old bikes to sell. From there, their football volunteering CV reads (among others) the West Surrey Boys League Committee, Surrey County FA Youth Committee, Westfield FC, Surrey Youth League, Combined Counties League and the Woking Referees As- sociation. Pam and Roy can also be credited as helping to save the Loop Road Playing Fields (home now to Meadow Sports) from a building developer, facing the board of enquiry while sitting on the Woking Sports Council. Surrey FA Website To the Woking Referee Society Pam and I would like t thank you very much indeed for the lovely flowers and champagne you gave Roy at the August meeting. We would also like to thank every- body who voted for us in the recent McDonalds People Award for outstanding contribution for the Community Football 201 (Above Roy (on the left) receiving his gifts from Barry) We are pleased to say that we gained most votes out of the 7 nominations. We had a most enjoyable day at the Community Shield match, even going onto the pitch at half time and being congratulated by Geoff Hurst and by Sir Trevor Brooking Pam and Roy Lomax 4 The Warbler The Magazine of the Woking Referees’ Society “Foul Throw Ref !” How often do we hear that from players when we are referee- ing on the local parks? Yet whenever I watch the professional game on TV the number of foul throw-ins are quite remarkable. Now, I tend to be rather easy going when it comes to throws, unless it’s blatantly obvious and the player/ team in- volved have gained an advantage. I always ask my club linesperson to watch the players feet (and demonstrate what is and what isn’t acceptable regarding foot over the line) but say that I will watch the hands/throw for the sake of consistency, as that can be more subjective. And that seems to work. But back to the “professionals”, how many times are players pulled up for basically dropping the ball or the ball not even reaching the throwers carefully gelled hair, never mind behind the head. I think I only saw one instance last year when a throw was deemed a foul. The referees fee was discussed by County FA this year. A request had been made to increase the recommended basic fee from £30 to £35, which has not changed for some 7 years. Given the increase in fuel over this time, not an unrea- sonable request you may think. However this was not agreed by County, but why not a token increase to £32 or £33? I wonder if the employees of the County FA had a pay increase over the last 8 years? I appreciate that one of the biggest costs for a club must be the hire of the pitch.

  • Conference 2015 Special
    R.A. BOARD VOICEOVER “Conference 2015 Special” Referees’ Association Announcement At meeting of the RA Board on Sunday 5th July 2015 the following were elected: Chairman: Paul Field Vice Chairman: Ian Campbell Treasurer: Eddie McGrath Further announcements will follow during the coming weeks as we continue to structure the RA Board. ************************************************************************************************************************************** THE THOUGHTS OF CHAIRMAN PAUL (Paul Field) I have been a member of the R.A. Board for 5 years during which time I have seen seven different Chairman, a Board of Inquiry regarding the general management of the RA, and we had an office facility which was not fit-for-purpose, The RA has now started to move forward and this is now history but let’s remember one quote which typifies the organisation: Henry Ford said – “If you always do what you’ve always done, you will always get what you’ve always got”. In the case of The R.A., a poor product which is not relevant to majority of the Refereeing family, declining membership and often people being in office for far too long. In my view, The R.A. now has to move forward and there are sound building blocks for the future which are positive steps. We need to remember that our main reason for existence is to provide a platform for on-going training, development, mentoring and mutual support. The thriving LRAs are the ones that concentrate on this, have lively debates, a good social side and little business transacted at meetings. As a collective (individually and LRA’s) we are all responsible! There is an urgent need to change people’s perception of the RA and the quality of the membership experience.

The match will be the 91st time the Shield has been contested. The only match ever to go to a replay was the very first - in 1908. No club has a Shield pedigree like Manchester United. They were its first winners and have now clocked up a record 15 successes. They have shared the Shield an additional four times and have featured in a total of 28 contests. Wigan Athletic, by contrast, were a non-League club until 1978 and are playing the first Shield match in their 81-year history. The FA Charity Shield, its name until 2002, evolved from the Sheriff of London Shield - an annual fixture between the leading professional and amateur clubs of the time.
