Premier League referee Bobby Madley was sacked after sending an inappropriate message on social media featuring a picture of a disabled man, Sky Sports News understands.

 

It is understood the Snapchat message suggested the 32-year old would be able to win a race against the disabled man on a school sports day.

 

After the image was seen by the Professional Game Match Officials Limited, he was informed that his contract would be terminated.

 

It is understood Madley is presently relocating to Norway and, if selected, he will be able to continue working as a professional match official.

 

The Premier League have told Sky Sports News: "Bobby Madley is no longer employed by PGMOL.

 

"We understand he has decided to relocate due to a change in his personal circumstances."

 

Madley had officiated 91 matches in the Premier League since 2013 and also took charge of last season's Community Shield at Wembley.

 

EDIT: Hadn't realised Giggs.

 

Hmm I'd like to know the context of this a bit more tbh.

The only thing he could possibly be thinking is that a foul for holding started outside the area, which we don't quite see on the video but looks possible as the striker is backing into the defender. Even then it's an incorrect interpretation of the rules as the foul continues into the box. Quite incredible incompetence really.

If a foul starts outside the box and continues into the box its a penalty not a FK

 

I believe Keith Stroud was the referee

Any reason why Pogba wasn’t booked for booting the ball away first-half? Would have meant he couldn’t have hacked down Yedlin when we had a dangerous break without being sent-off.

 

Ritchie on the other hand gets a yellow for taking a quick free-kick.
