Applaud the sentiment behind it all but online racism has, if anything, increased since it started so it's plainly not helping. Love to see another way to get the message across but not sure what that could be. Palfy, Romey 1878, Matt and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could go either way. Be brilliant if they do it like other sports which has helped refs gain more respect by explaining their decisions. Or given the current lot of refs in football they'll use it to garner even more attention for themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I’m to old school and need to move with the times, it’s like not putting the flag up for an offside understand when it’s close don’t flag and let the move play out, but when it’s clearly offside by a yard or more flag and stop the game what’s to be gained by carrying on.

Pardew got 7 as a manager. For me a referee should be held at a higher account than a manager as they have less emotion invested. Watching the clip he's far too hotheaded. The striker is no where near as abusive as claimed because before he can even fully moan the ref is fronting him. Just didn't like getting his authority questioned and if he can't handle that he should be a referee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
