. . . . and a warm welcome to the referee.

Just had this emailed to me by BlueDipper son. Says it reminds him of me.

From BBC website....

STADIUM ANNOUCEMENTS OF THE WEEK

"And tonight's match referee is...oh dear God....Davy Malcolm."
From the Ballymena v Glenavon Irish Cup replay.

Wonder how we could welcome back the useless tools who've trodden the green sward at CoMS this season.

Perhaps,

"And today's match referee is no friend of Davy Moyes, Mr. Mark Crappenburg.'

OR

"And today's match referee is that humourless prick, Mr Steven Bennett. Tim Cahill is reminded to keep his shirt on!"

OR EVEN

'And this afternoon's ref is Mr Stuart Attwell, who will be awarding goal kicks to the attacking side and corners to the defenders, just to liven up the prospect of a dull match."

Didn't some announcer get sacked a few seasons ago for saying "welcome back to the Uriah Rennie show" as the two teams came out for the second half? I can't remenber the game.
