Someone on Twitter has pointed out that despite PGMOL being only one of the world's two professional refereeing bodies, not a single English referee is deemed good enough to go to the world cup this summer. That shows quite clearly how far standards have fallen under the "leadership" of Mike Riley. I've tweeted that to a few of the better journalists so we'll see what reaction it gets.

It's scandalous that someone from Upper Volta or wherever is thought by FIFA to be better than someone like Martin Atkinson. Riley has been an utter disaster for the English game.

I vaguely remember Poll maybe(?) saying after a match on BT that the reason why there are no English refs going to the World Cup was that Clattenburg was our elite referee that would have gone, but his decision to quit last season left us with no qualified elite referee with not enough time for others to gain the necessary credentials/experience.

MillionMilesAway. The ref Lee Mason can still change his mind and say if he had seen how bad the tackle was he would have issued a straight red card. However this still does not mitigate the part of the assistant with the yellow flag, and that he didn't tell the ref that it was a dangerous tackle and should be a straight red card.

I agree - I've said that I think the linesman is more at fault than Mason.
