I never, ever take interest in who is refereeing a game, even during the game - they are all prone to bad decisions both for and against us at various times in the season. I also don't bear grudges for years for a poor decision made a long time ago and claim it as evidence that the ref is a mune etc

I therefore don't understand whether what you have posted is supposed to be a good or a bad thing as their names mean little to me

In my profession, no cunt ever complains when they are making 25% growth a year on their money for 3 years, but the minute their investment falls by 10% i'm the fucking antichrist. Its exactly the same with referees - you only ever remember the bad bits - you selectively ingore the good things they do as they are not noteworthy.

Not a rant really Doug, well certainly not anything with regards Beeks. I just dont get the fixation with who the ref is. If you are the better team, and genuinely deserve the victory you will win 75 times out of 100.

20 times out of 100, teams like Villa get lucky, shit happens

The other 5 may be down to human/referee error - that small percentage where the ref makes a wrong penalty call or a disallowed goal doesnt make or break a season, so if they make a mistake, move on, forget about it.

Dunno. In that photo he looks like he has just spotted the rampaging rhino that is heading directly for him.

I think he is a reasonably able referee, truth be told. I hope he gets everything right on Sunday and I am sure he does too.
