For a moment some of these guys forgot they were referees.
We swear we saw several referees moan at the official on more than one occasion!
More than forty football officials took part in a tournament organised by a local referees association.
But it was all light-hearted banter organiser Ismail Esat later told us, "It was a huge success and all young referees really enjoyed it and they want me to organise this event each year.
"The tournament was organised to raise funds to buy a communication system like the Premier League refs so we could train the young referees from the side lines.
"Any donations from any companies would be welcome.".

As for the competition itself the underdogs of Team E won the cup. Junaid Dala who scored 20 goals; Khalid Esat clinched the goalkeeper award and Richard Allingham won the player trophy.
