Ref for the derby

[cibaman]

Slightly off topic surprised he wasn’t picked to go to the World Cup ..

I think he's considered to be a bit too old.

He wasn't nominated by the FA. That's why he is not going to the WC. The 3 who were nominated, I believe, Taylor, Swarbrick & believe it or not big fat Bobby Madley. Atkinson seen as 2 young, Oliver to young allegedly.

I think Halsey, was saying he hasn't passed the fitness test required.

Is Oliver even a champions league referee yet?

 

[BringBackSwales]

Nope, I checked and you are still wrong

I checked your checking, and you are right, he is wrong

I don't rate any referee's in our league one bit. In my opinion three are definitely biased against us. Taylor, Madely and Mason. Add to that list a couple of linesmen too. Atkinson is probably the least worrying ref but that isn't any ringing endorsement.

Mourinho was complaining about Atkinson being chosen as the ref for the derby as he had fucked up a game when he was managing Chelsea.

From that point alone, I am pleased with the appointment as anything or anybody who annoys that moaning Portugese twat is ok by me. Also gives the ego driven cnut a ready made excuse if the Rags get their areas kicked by City.


Fingers doubly crossed !!

I hope he keeps on whining because it is human nature if someone disrespects you to want to get one over on them.

I think it's a fair bet Maureen will carry on whining.

Well here's hoping that Atkinson is in an especially vindictive mood on Saturday.
