For most people it would be a nightmare job; trying to keep up with athletes who could be 30 years younger and, let's be honest, will very often try to con you or find a way to to cheat then get slaughtered for not seeing something.
The media don't help with comments like "You're never going to get that at...(insert ground).

The list of things you're not going to get at Selhurst is exceedingly long.

the way Ryan Giggs used to talk to referees whenever ManUre were playing somebody like Preston North End.

Giggs having a difference of opinion with a Preston player who, fairly, dispossessed him.

it always seemed to start with ''do you know who i am ?''

Absolute dross and a myth made up by sore losers. Why on Earth would the refs favour the big clubs? Fans from all clubs seem to conveniently forgot about the bad decisions which go in their favour when this debate comes up.

Big clubs get more pens, but guess what, they have more possession and get in more dangerous positions.

On the whole the refs do well. Bad decisions happen but they tend to even themselves out over the course of the season.

I do believe refs can be influenced by a home crowd, but that’s the same for every team.

Old Purple Nose used to make a career out of manipulating referees.

It felt like he was untouchable. The Vlad Putin of football.

I much prefer Putin, cos at least he plays fairly - and everybody knows the rules.
