Ref told our AD last night:
"There are a bunch of holes in your nets."

Oh, I like this topic: Here are a few I've been told, the names are left out to protect the innocent:
"Your girls could score, if they would shoot" (dah)
"You stick to messing up the coaching and let me mess up the calls"

A serious foul was made by a team against ours and our player asked the ref if she would give her a card. The ref promptly replied "Well, now that you asked, I won't."
Similar to soccerrouge's quotes, our ref also said to a coach who yelled most of the game, "I don't coach your team, you don't ref my game." Then carded the coach.
Better quotes come from the players on the field toward the ref, however. In a recent evening game, the ref was completely oblivious to obvious fouls made right in front of his eyes, from both teams. Finally, he found his whistle and made a call. "Good MORNING, sir! Rise and shine! Glad you could join us!"

"You stick to messing up the coaching and let me mess up the calls" I like that one. That is pretty good. A buddy was coaching a game once. His wife was his assistant and she was yelling at the ref pretty good. Finally, the ref comes over and tells him to keep her quiet. He looks at the ref and says "man, I have been trying to do that for years." The ref laughed and walked away.

One of my favorites comes from a parent who yelled at the ref to "throw your yellow card that was clearly a foul"!

Some Others:
"The balls out when I say its out and that's the only time"
"If I called it, don't worry, it happened"

From the referee during pregame:
"I will mess up a few calls, you will mess up a few passes.. You give me hell about my calls, I will harp on how bad you suck the rest of the game."

A female ref is setting the wall. Male player says "That's not 10". Ref says "I've been told for as long as I can remember that 'THIS' is 6 inches". (Indicating with her index and thumb a mere 2 inches) "This wall should look like 15 to you".

In the arena of Bill Engvall ("Here's your sign"): (taken from actual on field events)
ref: "You need to drop the sassy back talk, this ain't your momma you talk'n to" player: "Oh, believe me your NOT my mother, my mom isn't blind or stupid" ............. here's your Card
player: "Come on Ref, the ball was clearly out!" ref: "Son, let me call the game, I think I saw that the ball was NOT out" player: "Well apparently your vision is bad" ref: "(smiling) I have my glasses on." player: "Well maybe its cause your head is up your a**" .......... here's your Card !

Heard this one following the Vandy/EA state final in Gonzales earlier this year, from a EA parent in the stands:
"You knew Vandebilt would win anyway, the refs are Catholic."
