No you're missing my point.You are missing the point. This isn't a fan ranting on talkshite. A premier league football club have basically stated they believe a pigmol official to be corrupt. They stated that because Forest denied Huddersfield promotion, Madely, a Huddersfield fan will not act impartially if he refs a Forest game.
There appears to have been no investigation as to whether Madley was at the play off final, they have just dismissed it. There is no integrity in the organisation.
Forest are implying that a professional referee who has no association with them, does not support a traditional rival (e.g. City/United, Liverpool/Everton), but supports a club in a completely different league, will be biased towards them because the team that he supports were allegedly denied promotion by a DIFFERENT professional referee in a play off final.
They are basically accusing him of being impartial (biased) solely on the basis that he supports a different team (which again isn't even in the same division) and attended a play off final as a fan. That's a whole level of paranoia which puts Bluemoon completely in the shade. Or is there some rule I am unaware of that says a Referee cannot attend any games of any sort as a fan?
Forget fan paranoia, Forest must have a stock of extra size tin foil hats if they expect the premier league/PGMOL to bar him (or investigate him) from games on such a flimsy basis.
