Referees!!! We spend all Saturday afternoon screaming and shouting at them from the terraces "wot was that ref" and other sayings that I cannot write on here for fear of Dooyoo disabling my opinion!
Half of the fun of attending a game on a saturday is to disagree with every decision that the ref puts against your team.
The clouded judgement does normally lean fans against the ref because of a dubious call but on the whole, they are only doing a job and I would not do it for all of the tea in China.
There is a new referees review panel now that will rate the way a ref perfoems and remove him from top flight refereeing should they feel it neccessary and move him down to officiating Nationwide matches. This is a drop in money of several hundred pounds.
Maybe this will inspire the referees to concentrate on the game more and not make silly mistakes.
