Referees/Officials Thread - 2023/24

Stuff comes out like this every now and then,remember mark Halsey and him being told to change a match report i think it was,the media cover these but they quickly disappear as much as they pop up,and yet no real outrage from the media,I wonder why ..
Halsey was pretty much silenced, and the media have all but 'forgotten' about his comments.
 
"I just think in games like these you just - I don't even want to say good luck to go your way - you just want things to go as they should.

"I'm not going to talk too much as I don't want to get into trouble, but the only thing I was surprised about was how quickly the decisions were made at that moment in time.

"You see now, on decisions that can define a game - which maybe, amongst other things, did today - you tend to see referees take a bit more time, particularly at the top, top level. So I was really surprised, looking at it, how quickly it all happened.

"You just need things to go your way. I'm just biting my tongue, in terms of what I really feel."

The above is the full quotes from Cooper in the Torygraph.

It seems other media organisations clipped it. Why did they do that?

We all now why… Protect the cartel at all costs
 
If anyone wants an example of a ref dubiously influencing a match, watch back the first half of the City v Fulham match.
