Have you ever been on the FIFA list of referees? If not, would you like to be a FIFA referee in the future?
No, I got on the elite list at 38 and was therefore too old to be nominated for FIFA.

When allowing an advantage, how long would you give yourself to make a decision to whether it is a good advantage to play-on or not?
Advantage is always a good debate and two or three seconds is appropriate in this situation but you must always be mindful of where the offence took place before playing it.
