This guide will show referees how to add and correct match events on the web version of COMET.

The home club is asked to add match events (goals, cards and substitutions) for a match to ensure consistency and avoid duplication.

Ideally they will do this in real time, however if they are unable to they can also add the events after the match.  If this is the case, the club should ask the referee not to change the match status to Played until they have added the match events, and inform the referee when the events are added.

After the match, the referee should check that match events, particularly red and yellow cards, have been added correctly.  Please be aware that the club may not know the reason for a card so please check this and correct if necessary.

The team tab

To add a match event, click on the team tab for the player you want to add the event to.

Adding a yellow card

To add an event to a player, click on their name in the Lineup section.

The Events box will open, where you will be able to see the players name and shirt number listed at the top.

To add a yellow card enter the minute that the card was given in the Minute section.  You can add a time in stoppage time by filling the + box, or a card given out of playing time by selecting Before the match, During the break or After the match from the Choose drop down menu.

In the Type section, tick the Yellow card box.

You will need to choose a reason for the yellow card, by selecting from the Choose drop down list in the Reason section.

You may enter further information by typing it into the Statement box, but this is optional for a yellow card.

Finally click Save at the bottom of the box, and you will see the card marked against the players name in the line-up.

Adding a red card

To add a red card to a player, click on their name in the Lineup section.

Again, the Events box will open, where you will be able to see the players name and shirt number listed at the top.

Enter the minute that the card was given in the Minute section and in the Type section, tick the Red card box.

You will need to choose a reason for the red card, by selecting from the Choose drop down list in the Reason section.

For a red card you also need to enter further information by typing it into the Statement box.

Finally click Save at the bottom of the box, and you will see the card marked against the players name in the line-up.

 

Adding a card awarded out of play

A card awarded out of play can also be recorded on COMET.

To do this, when allocating the card to the player, in the Events box, instead of entering the minute that the card was awarded, click the Choose drop down menu.  

Here you can select Before the matchduring the breakduring the penalty shootout or after the match as appropriate.

Removing a match event added to the wrong player

If after the match, you notice that a card has been attributed to the wrong player, you are able to edit this.

To remove the event from the player, click on the players name in the Lineup section.

In the Events box which opens, you will see the event that has been added to the player listed.

To remove the event click on the bin icon next to the match event.  The listing is then removed from the Events box.

Click Save to confirm this, and you will see that the event is now removed from the player in the team line-up.

To add the card to the correct player, please follow the process shown above to add a yellow or red card.

Editing a match event added to a player

 

If a card or other match event has been added to a player with the wrong details included (e.g. wrong time, wrong reason for card), you are also able to edit this.

To make the changes, click on the players name in the Lineup section.

In the Events box which opens, you will see the event that has been added to the player listed.

To edit the event click on the pencil icon next to the match event. 

You will then be able to edit the Minute, Type of event, Reason and Statement.

When you have made the necessary changes, click Save to confirm them. 

Please ensure that you add any match events and make any changes that are needed before you change the match status to Played, as you will no longer be able to make changes after the status change.
