I've just completed a 'training quiz' which featured the phrase 'great recklessness'. Has anyone ever heard of anything worse? Imagine if I had sent that in for a description of a YC, I'd be sanctioned alright!

@refsupportuk Dermot will be on to back the ref.

The Referee's a W****r. So many officials covered in this little skit. Tag or retweet a ref buddy that should watch it. Especially if it reminds you of them! #SanSiro #InsideNumber9

Avoid https://t.co/VXSNjDqYMG it's a scam site. They don't deliver any products within the time frame advertised and threaten to charge you for refunds. I've have been insulted via email too. Unprofessional and unfriendly. Avoid at all costs. Share this post!

Nice quiet Sunday evening. #fourstraightreds

@RabidRobo @refsupportuk @GainsTrinityFC They must have gone to the Tim Spiers school of journalism. Wolves fans love him but his professionalism is none existent. It only took the Express & Star four years to remove the troglodyte.

@ismith1968 @refsupportuk @GainsTrinityFC Too far to call. My gut was fair tackle but don't have the referee's view. Needless to say it's the reaction rather than the incident that's up for debate. If a striker misses a penalty and then gets sent off nobody calls for him to be sacked or "never play again" do they?

@AandHReferees 64 including missing 5 weeks out through injury.

Breaking News! Referee uses common sense. Spooked FA immediately ban him. #smh

[Daily Mail Sport @MailSport]

FA suspend referee after he made Women's Super League captains play rock, paper, scissors when he forgot coin for toss https://t.co/6hLgqg4xN1

[twentythirdman @twentythirdman]

@AandHReferees Authority first. Others a close second.

[twentythirdman @twentythirdman]

@refsupportuk Missed a routine caution when a Swede blocked a quick free kick in 1st half. Missed an obvious caution for a tackle just that was nasty (83rd). Below par.

[twentythirdman @twentythirdman]

@mattnewstop FA's need to put more money in retention rather than this obsession on new referees. So many I know give up in the first 5 years. FAMOA scheme looked after the referee who didn't go for promotion but carried out 30+ games on crap pitches in all weathers. Massive loss.
