The Referees or The Twelfth Man

Has anyone got any insight into who released this video and why? Particularly why now? I know I threw up a fictional scenario for fun earlier in the thread (apologies for that as not necessarily helpful), but I really would be interested to know if anyone has any more realistic thoughts on this.

Thats not hard. I know he thinks hes the Godfather of football but in reality hes a gobshite who sings the tune of the highest payer.

Are you sure about that?

Can you give the dates involved?

You can look up refs on Transfermarkt and it tells you the games they’ve been in charge of.

Admittedly I didn’t look that closely into it. Just noticed he hadn’t done one of their games yet this season and looked back a couple more.

Gee this dude is getting into a deeper hole day by day.

Mental health defence card will come out next. It seems every manager has the same immediate announcements - apologise/own it and then the old please respect his mental health. They take the piss out of a serious health issue.

Oh dear, you’ve now stated he didn’t referee Newcastle for 2 1/2 seasons and hasn’t refereed them this season.

Wrong on both counts.

That’s what interests me as someone has clearly been sitting on it for a while. Suddenly there is footage of him snorting coke as well.

Waiting for this to break into German media…

Few weeks ago UEFA admitted that Germany should have been rewarded a penalty and now it turns out that a coke head was on VAR. A coke head who doesn’t like Germans?

Fair enough. Told you I didn’t look that closely.

Interesting that whilst he does have very few games in direct charge of us we’re his second most popular assignment as both VAR and fourth official. Not like he’s been totally absent from our games.

He’s also only reffed City, United and Brentford three more times than us in the PL. Given the period he’s not been in charge of one of our games you’d have expected that gap to be bigger.

This one is OMG! He’s definitely finished in football.

No wonder he was incompetent in his decision making, especially when he was doing VAR duty in front the tv monitor!

Maybe you should in future.

Maybe I’ll just not bother pointing you to the source next time and you can do your own work to find out I was mistaken.
