Standard of Refereeing

[Rudy Can't Fail]

The PMGOL are accountable to nobody, they'll always defend their own and there's far too many bad refs out there stealing a living, the worst with FIFA badges, though yesterdays was as bad as they come. It's reached the stage where I no longer have any confidence in the referee and the PMGOL.

A thought crossed my mind last night on how to resolve the piss take that is the PMGOL, bring in Pierluigi Collina to run it and get the house in order. If people think they're doing their best and it is what it is, stop complaining, we'll never resolve the poor state of referees in the country.

I have long said OGMOL should be disbanded and overseas referees brought in until a new association can be established with a completely new set of officials.

I wouldn’t worry too much about changing for overseas refs. You should see the penalty Inter just got vs Napoli.

The referee had a great view of the penalty incident in real time, and gave no penalty. The penalty was effectively imposed by VAR. Up until that point, for 70 mins or so, the game had been refereed very well.

It's a limited company and completely self serving starting at the top. If we can't cancel the PL contract, though I understand referees are all self employed or at least that's what OGMOL told HMRC, at least get the bloody thing to work.
