RESPECT
Respect is the collective responsibility of everyone in Football to create a fair, safe and enjoyable environment for the game to take place.
Since its launch in 2007, The FA's Respect programme has helped achieve a real improvement in behaviour on and off the pitch from the top of the professional game through to the grassroots.
The highlight of the season to date has been the 9 per cent increase in the number of qualified referees with the number having risen to 25,502, compared to the same period for 2008/09. There has also been a 45 per cent increase in the recruitment of referees at Level Nine - the first step on the road to becoming a fully-fledged referee - with 5,197 new recruits taking to the field up and down the country.
Results for 2009-10 have shown that in the professional game, sent cautions are down on figures from the same period in 2008-09. For all 1200 FA affiliated Leagues cautions are down by 5 per cent, Dismissals down by 1 per cent, Misconduct down by 5 per cent, Dissent Cautions by 5 per cent.
