Anthony Taylor (of Altrincham)

As far as I know, normally it's based on where he lives. If he lives in Cheshire, he'd be aligned to the Cheshire FA.
Originally he's from Wythenshawe, but he might not live in Gtr Manchester now.

He lives in Altrincham
 
Makes no difference who he does or doesn’t support he is based within a region that is mainly blue or red and therefore should not be officiating on Sunday
 
Apart from any other reason its not a good idea to have a ref in charge of a game where his neighbours could include disgruntled nutters! Who sanctioned this and why do we persist in promoting people until they reach their best level of incompetence?

Was just discussing the same with a mate. Pigmol not thought of consequences of this appointment. Almost as if they are wanting a confrontation.

I’ve said many times before; I don’t know him but three people I know do.

A mate of mine went to school with him, he was an Alty fan at school. A mate of mine used to play for Alty and whenever Taylor sees him he always goes to talk to him to see how he is and talks about Alty. My mate’s missus is mates with Taylor’s missus and while his missus is a red, she says he actually is an Alty fan.

Is the mate of yours who went to school with him a red or a blue? And of course his wife is gonna say he’s an alty fan she knows which side her bread is buttered on
 
Sky will have Tyler and Neville commentating and praising the ref' for his courage in giving the rags 2 penalties, a sending-off, Pep to the stands and offering to drive one of our players to A&E after a "Very robust but fair" tackle round the neck.
Dear Mr Taylor - May the fleas of a 1,000 camels infest your armpits.
 
At the end of the day even if he is an Alty fan and infact has a secret hatred for both red and blue this is on every level an ill thought out perhaps intentionally inflammatory appointment.

His record in matches involving us should be enough to suggest this is a fixture he would be better well away from, the fact he lives a hop skip and a jump from both grounds and has as a consequence will be in the midst of all the local build up and aftermath frankly makes this appointment astonishing.

As for the Alty fan bit, at the end of the day I could claim to be a Macc fan, as I watched them regularly over the years, but despite this it would not take much to uncover my loyalties to City. Here is the thing if I were ref on Sunday I can guarantee those twats would finish with at most 9 men and the 6-1 would be eclipsed. Perhaps Alty Ant may not be quite as bent as I would be however he will be close enough to make sure those twats get at least a draw out of this and probably a win.

Laughable appointment and shows utter contempt for the integrity of the game and the premier League.

Shite ref rag or not! Why is it everytime he refs our games they end in some sort of fracas, he fucked the Chelsea game up, fucked the Wigan game up and then they give him a huge match knowing if it flairs on the pitch our fans will riot, can't see how people can't see this is a total setup by the FA and PGMOL. Just hope we batter them on the pitch and there's sod all he can do about it or we are in trouble.
 
Apart from the actual results in the games of ours he officiates, is there any way of finding out his record re fouls and cards in our games?

W 10 D4 L 4
For City: 27 yellow, 3 (straight) red, 2 penalties.
For opponent: 29 yellow, 3 penalties

Defeats were the Chelsea match, 2x Wigan in the FA Cup and a 1-3 to Leicester in 2015-6

It's probably possible (if you're persistent and bored) to get the fouls etc from
