The thing is if he screws up, he won't be welcome at one major club - it was a long time after Chelsea before he came back to City. I think he's poor, and Chelsea was ludicrously bent, but he's now at a level in the ref ranking that there's a fair amount riding on it.
Geographical appointing isn't really workable. Otherwise some refs would be barred from many top games simply for living somewhere. I understand a few are always considered - Oliver doesn't do Newcastle, I think - and Dean rarely does a Merseyside club outside the derby. There are a lot of refs from the NW, and it would arguably be worse to have the same ref every fourth week.

Not allowed to ref our games since he released Living for the City.Could have been better, we could have got Stevie Wonder
Ten years ago i might have agreed with you (although it would have been closer to 50:50 than a 100% landslide). Now i don't know a single Rag who wants us to win the title over Liverpool. A couple of my mates watched the Prem game we played at Anfield last season in a pub in Chorlton and all the Rags in there were cheering Liverpool's goals, to a man.
But that is because last season Liverpool had no chance of winning the league and a loss for us would have meant United cut the gap! All the rags I speak to are quite happy that the dippers have never won the premiership and are keen for it to stay that way.
Roger East is on a par with Taylor.I have no confidence in the referee at all. I'll remember his completely bent performance against Chelsea. Probably the worst I've ever seen.

I thought Taylor played a blinder in the derby despite our pre-match misgivings
