If I am fouled, the ball plays to my side's advantage and the ref plays advantage. Can my side choose to not take that advantage and receive the free kick instead?

Something I've always wondered but never heard the answer to...

No. It's up to the referee to make that decision. If he hasn't signaled play on or stopped play chances are maybe he didn't think it was a foul.

p.s.
there is a forum for this sort of thing.

Yeah but no one looks there I put it here to get it answered!

Who says no-one does? Many a question gets answered in said forum.

Unless each player gets given a whistle ,the answer is no

When I was a referee I played advantage to a side and they wanted the free kick near the box...anyway they went on and scored so I asked them if they still wanted the free kick....

How about this one:

A player receives a 5th yellow card on the last game of the season . . .

Does the next season start afresh or does he have to miss the first game ?

tHIS IS A LEAGUE QUESTION NOT A REFEREE QUESTION

depends on if he's changed clubs or not.

Amateur YC ban = 4 yellows. I believe.
Yes, it carries over to next season (i.e Joey Barton)
If you change clubs, the SAASL probably won't pick it up, so you probably can play! (unless your first game is against your old club - they will know cos they would have got the fine)

The FFSA don't seem to be able to pick it up either.

Funny thing is in both cases the both former clubs claimed that the player was told of the carryover at the clubs's presentation night, but in at least one case the player wasn't even at presentation night.

Of course you can ring up the association and ask if a certain player is carrying a suspension over and be told 'no', but still end up forfeiting the game

It's crazy that the league doesn't take any responsibility for the administration of the league, after all what are you paying the competition fee for?

I think saasl would pick up on it, you keep the same card number etc.. so no reason why it wouldn't be noticed.
