Brum Royal The ref's pacing of freekicks seemed very variable. I think one of the freekicks we had in the first half (the second with the vanishing spray in front of the East Stand) looked a good 12 yards and took 11 paces, whereas one in the second half seemed to be only 7 paces. Very odd.
I agree. I counted one pacing of 7 steps and one of 8 steps in the second half. The ref wasn't very tall either so his paces were no longer than average!
