We do know this ref's on the take though. There's actual evidence of it.

Oliver? Yep basically a kick back innit. Put up in the best suite of the Abu Dhabi Hilton, a complimentary Thai hooker who knows all the disgusting things he likes to do that his missus won’t tolerate. Lobsters, Fillet Mignon and Johnny Walker Black coming out of his ears. And in return he refs some fixture in the UAE to legitimise it all as a business trip

20K, lovely. And the best bit, nothing at all to see here. It's quite normal for refs to have these types of relationships with clubs they are impartially officiating. Which is why I want Wrighty to become a ref - can you imagine the wailing?

Johnny Walker Blue. You put Black in your bike if you get stuck between petrol stations.

Tell that to the Arab Sheiks despite telling everyone they rule that it’s haram to drink…they go nuts for JWB

well their petrol stations are hundreds of miles apart in the desert.

Personally I prefer MacAllan. Feels less like something you’ve picked up in duty free as an afterthought

So what's going to happen now the PGMOL has been shown up as utterly incompetent and probably corrupt in front of the whole world?

Another Oliver - Holt - is on the case:

Revealed: The sickening death threats sent to Michael Oliver and his two-year-old daughter after Myles Lewis-Skelly red card and the horror that awaited his terrified family when he returned home, writes OLIVER HOLT

And from his mates in the media:

Arsenal youngster Myles Lewis-Skelly's controversial red card against Wolves OVERTURNED as FA release 46-word statement and Mikel Arteta condemns trolls who targeted Michael Oliver

Just because the standard of officiating in the richest league in the world has hit absolute bottom, that's no excuse not the change the subject.

Besides, what would happen to the likes of Holt if he had to write about football?

[Niall_Quinn]

Former Premier League referee David Coote could land a new role in football, according to a report.

Coote was dismissed as a Premier League referee in December 2024 after the emergence of videos earlier in the year that saw him call ex-Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp 'a German ****'.

Footage also emerged alleging to show him sniffing a white powder through a rolled-up bank note.

It was apparently taken during the summer's European Championship. The PGMOL found Coote's actions made his position as a Premier League official 'untenable' and the organisation headed up by Howard Webb terminated his employment with immediate effect.

This week, in an interview with The Sun, Coote revealed that he turned to drugs over fear of coming out as gay in the 'macho world' of the Premier League.

The same outlet now claim that the 42-year-old could make a sensational return to football as a VAR instructor.

LOL. Surely fake news?

I have a lot of time for Klopp, I think we absolutely missed a trick by bringing him to Arsenal. I think there’s no question in my mind we’d have won a league title with him. But from a referees perspective, corrupt or not corrupt “German Cunt” is probably about right.

[WMUG]

He's officiated games in the UAE, all paid for by City's owners. I mean, that's just facts.
Whether it influences his decisions. I'm sure he's above that.
It's probably just a coincidence he's given us 8 red cards in 55 games and Man City 0 in 50 games.

From the perspective of a corrupt ref on City's payroll, what would be the aim of this red card? City are already out of the title race, the only team helped by hurting us would be Liverpool.

City are fighting for a top four spot and Arsenal are one of the teams currently in the top four, OK so we're above everyone except Liverpool but hey when Arsenal have a player sent off every other week you might as well damage them while you can if you think you can get away with it.

Plus there's the wider North-West bias
