PGMOL must be inundated with crap ex referees. It’s no wonder we never see any improvement in the standards.

There’s going to be some absolute dross refereeing in the Prem next season with four of them gone over the summer.

Friend worst of the lot.

His work for the Premier League is done, he needs to get away now before it becomes obvious and they're rumbled.

I think that he is taking over the management of SG2 referees who mainly referee in The Championship.

Can you imagine. So boss, a forward has headed a cross goalwards, the keeper has come out and punched the forward in the head, knocking him to the floor without touching the ball. I give a penalty, right? What that, you say give a corner despite the clear foul on the forward and the forward being the last player to touch the ball?

To be honest I didn’t think Bobby Madley was that bad when we had him several seasons ago and I preferred him to his older brother Andy.
