Wullie Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Well that's settled. Fucking idiot. http://www.skysports.com/amp/football/news/11095/11485404/premier-league-referee-bobby-madley-sacked-after-sending-offensive-social-media-message 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Assume they're just too lazy to find an actual picture of that ref and just go with the ref stock photo they've got. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonArmy1892 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Fairly appropriate, most of them referee like they are headless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Surely they could find a better generic ref photo than one where it looks like 17 stone of ref has been poured into a medium shirt that stretched in the dryer? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 That looks like Keith Stroud who gave that free kick for encroachment in our game against Burton, the penalty incident Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John P Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 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.

ToonArmy1892 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 What the f*** was Ritchie booked for? Trying to take a quick free kick? The ref f***ing hated that we were winning. The big team bias needs investigating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsprillasShinPad Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 It's not even big team bias. Taylor is a lifelong Man Utd fan, man. Well documented and outrageous that he's allowed to ref them. Blame lies with the FA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
