PM Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Michael is a damn good referee and I'm convinced he'll have no bother at Premiership level. He's had a good couple of seasons in the Football League, unlike Attwell who was pushed through after just a year and has been clearly shown to be somewhat out of his depth (although he is improving...seriously). As was said above his dad also refs on the Football League, which is ideal, and he's refereed the Conference Playoff Final and also the League 1 Playoff last season. He'll be fine.

Doctor Zaius Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Yes, Oy indeed. I've met him a few times when I was a junior Referee. He actually reffed a match I was playing in a few month back, I know it was only an under 19's match but he was spot on for everything, spoke really well too. Hope he goes far, it's just a shame thats another quality ref along with Clattenburg that wont be able to ref us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest iliketoonarmy Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Age doesn't always equal to quality when you look at Steve Bennett, Howard Webb and Mike Dean, they are bunch of shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pie Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Age doesn't always equal to quality when you look at Steve Bennett, Howard Webb and Mike Dean, they are bunch of shit. True but usually their is an optimum age for most things. Experience certainly has something to do with it. A 24 year old shit referee without experience is still shit and inexperienced of course. A 24 year old good referee also has probs! Looking at the rule rather than the exception to it. e.g. were Roy Keane, Thierry Henry good as young player? Of course. Better at 29? Certainly.
