PIRAN FILMS #nonleaguefootball VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS of @BradfordTownFC v @HelstonAFC. Really exciting game played in front of good @NonLeagueCrowd. @Goal_Mass is the commentator. Great @RefereeSupport. @Cornishfootball @IanNockolds youtu.be/c4dhzZgkA6Q

Barau FC player Nana Abraham was stabbed in the neck by a pitch invader during a NPFL match against Katsina United. The incident occurred shortly after Barau FC equalized in the 69th minute. Abraham is receiving medical treatment. This heinous act of violence is unacceptable and has no place in football. Referees and Footballers safety is paramount, and it's the responsibility of the authorities to ensure a secure environment for players, officials, and fans. The football community is shocked and outraged by this incident. We stand in solidarity with Nana Abraham and his family, wishing him a speedy recovery. #NPL #NPFL #FootballSafety #StadiumViolence #BarauFC #KatsinaUnited #NigeriaFootball #FootballIncident #RefereeLife #RefereeDecision #RefereeSupport #RefereeStrong #FootballUnites #NoToViolence #JusticeForNana #StadiumSecurity #PlayerSafety #FootballCommunity #RefereeCommunity #MatchOfficial #FootballReferee #SoccerReferee

Unfortunate reaction from Thornton Red FC's recent statement about the referee not being near any football match is concerning. While we understand the frustration, threats and personal attacks on referees are unacceptable. Let's promote constructive criticism and respect in football. #RefereeLife #FairPlay #Respect #Football #Sportsmanship #RefereeSupport #PositiveVibesOnly #FairPlayMatters #RespectTheRef #FootballForAll #RefereeAppreciation #GameDayVibes #SportsRespect #CleanGame #FootballFamily #RespectTheGame

So proud of Daisy 98% in her exam. Now onto the pitch. #blackbeltreferee @dundee_east @RefereeSupport

He was a disgrace. A Manchester official doing his best to keep utd’s top 4 safe.

Surely not another manchester based referee again..........

Oh no, you can’t criticise them. They can carry on being totally awful. The quality bar is so low and it’s like a cartel.

Wanting to give Brentford every challenge imaginable - laughable how obvious his bias and agenda is

How's that given as a foul ..fabinho won the ball clearly there
