Our assistant ref for Saturday is.........

[Small Rodent]

I would imagine it will take no more than five minutes for the first period related insult to be shouted.

Why can't the USA leave the sport alone? It's a game of 2 halves...

[Rip Van We Go Again]

A female assistant?

Holloway?

A controversial penalty?

When they met, it was Moider!

"This is our dog Holloway.  We called him that because of his vacant expression and empty words".

And this is the manager of Blackpool. We call him Freeway, because that's where we send him out to play

[German James]

Are you engaging in "banter"?

I'd just like to warn everyone that this thread is currently being read out on Talksport in the voice of Bernard Manning.

[Legion]

Trying to make a serious point, I do not understand how after the high-profile match she was involved in which caused the furore in the first place, the 'lower' level games she was next assigned to had her participation in stopped by her association and now the next match since the Sky debacle (I think) is another high-profile one.

" You can stick your fucking flag...." Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear....

Of course, requesting that a male linesman can stick his flag up his arse while then informing him that he has the resemblance to the slang word used for female genitalia is par of the course and naturally never gets mentioned.

[DeKuip]

Leave the poor cow alone. Looking at the ass. ref in the Arsenal game it proves being male doesn't get the job done any better.

What job's that then?!

Personally I think assigning her lower level games is paying too much heed to the media frenzy.  Stick her in and let her do her job as if this wasn;t going on I say.

[Toronto Villa]

Irrespective of whether it is right or wrong, I would imagine she's more than used to stuff being said by the crowd. I'm sure she's also developed a pretty thick skin to most of the banter. What wasn't acceptable is prominent members of a major sports network acting that way.

[Blackcountry Villa]

She's going to get ripped to shreds, poor cow.

'Andy Gray my lord Andy Gray...'

'Stayed in the kitchen, you should have stayed in the kitchen...'

'Get your tits out for the lads...'

You must be so proud.
