Home Forums Long Island & Eastern New York Soccer Message Boards BOTN Main Message Board Video of Parents Attacking Ref @ Barca/Auburndale Game

If anyone has other videos of this incident please send them to BOTN. You will remain anonymous. In the video you can clearly see the ref getting hit and wiping the spit from his face.....


Here is another video from a different angle......

That was a Barca parent who had been ejected minutes before punching the referee maybe 19 years old doing a 10 year old game

What an absolute shame and disgrace. The father should be either deported or arrested for this.
And for a 10 year old soccer game.

Wow the guy in the jeans and black shirt spits right in his face. Disgusting

If this game took place at Fort Totten would this become a federal incident as it's military base

I wonder why we have a ref shortage.

The mad spitter and punch thrower need to be identified and banned for life!

I understand this incident is going to be addressed by the ENYYSA Referees group. This is not going away so fast!!

Sorry but am I missing something? The video seems to clearly show the ref NOT getting punch but instead another parent or coach

Dont know what you're watching... SMH

Wow!! Are you a Barca parent?

Wait, the guy who initially looks like he is going to stop the attacker ends up being the one who spit at the referee. The goalie walks away with him at the end. I would rather someone punch me in the face than ever spit on me. Despicable behavior.

Deported really?? How are you better? There is definitely a swipe at the guys phone, no punch thrown though, and spitting (Gross, who does that?)

This is seriously dangerous! It must be addressed and charges filed. The police should be called if they weren't already. This young man should not have to worry about going to ref a game. THIS is exactly what is wrong with youth soccer! Parents are out of control.

Looks like a punch, or at least an attempted punch on the ref to me. Plus he was spit on. Parents shouldn't even be talking to a ref and even peacefully approaching and engaging referees should result in banishments and ejections. But to me the worst part about this whole thing is the coach supposedly refusing to name the parents. The coach should lose his pass over that.

Yeah you missed a lot. Might want to check it out again. Hope they make an example of this. Enough is enough

Are you a barca parent? You can see that the referí got punched and his phone fell out of his hand

Send the video to news 12

Seems like a lot of barca parents on here doing damage control. The video is pretty clear to anyone with eyes. Nothing should get anyone that angry at a youth soccer game, I don't care how bad the ref was. If those parents were not there the ref would have been beaten. Craziness.

SOME Parents and SOME coaches. Saying one without saying the other is telling half the story.

Let me tell you something snowflake an undocumented person can travel outside of USA and comeback
All this parents just returned a couple weeks ago from Spain with the Barca academy.
There is a lot of white people and blanco people living undocumented in this country isn’t just Spanish people dumb ass

Send to Univision and Telemundo as well!

Send to the club in Spain. Do you think the Barcelona Club [Spain} would like this kind of publicity?

My bad !! I try it to said that an undocumented person CANT TRAVEL OUTSIDE OF USA AND COMEBACK like nothing happened

I see the man smack the phone out of the Refs hand. No one was punched. Spitting and even getting to that level was disgusting no one was hit. So stop with the charges claims. And for the person saying he should get deported you’re a disgusting racist snowflake. It’s crazy how this story as wrong on so many levels as it was to get to the extreme where people are lieing and saying they beat up the ref ia so wrong. No one touched him.
