Well, looks like story is not getting much traction in media. What a surprise !

Mirror reporting that it was Riley who rang Halsey up. Oh dear.

Yeah. Just seen that but scrolled through BBC and all other papers and found very little if anything. Certainly not headlines...
Interestingly Halsey says the Rooney swearing into the lens was also interfered with to ensure he got banned. Not quite the script some on here would have you believe....

Re the PGMOL, why is it a Limited Company? I think that by definition it exists to make a profit. From whom? Then we have the Referee's Union, is it completely independent of PGMOL and if so why does the union not rail against their members being told to dissemble when a problem arises. Who runs the union?

Last I heard the refs were members of Prospect which is a union for professionals of various occupations, not a specific union for football officials.

Thanks for that info but my question still stands i.e why does any Union allow the members to be coerced into falsehoods.

As a guess, I'd say it's not a Union matter as it has not been directed to them. i.e somebody has not raised a work related grievance with them. If any member of any Union wants to voice their opinon on something that is the individuals right to do so.

Untill they are, for want of a better expression, called into action to protect the member rights there is nothing much they can be reasonably expected to do.

Probably somebody more versed in employment law could correct me?

Thanks for your reply but my question was rhetorical, I know that any Union would not step up until asked to do so.I imagine that should the resultant furore after Halsey's tweet come into the publics awareness that talks should happen between the members and their Union. It goes a lot deeper than normal industrial relations.
