Mike Dean - self-confessed cheat

[Zambo]

Awful arrogant prick of a man

Did you ever come across him?

Thank the Lord no. Takes me back though to when Clive Thomas was coming to the end of his career and I was appointed reserve official at Fratton Park. In those days you didn't have to be on the league list to get those appointments.

These are his exact words.

You are here to pour the tea at half time and full time. He never said another word to me.

Thomas had a very nice big house outside Porthcawl. You could see it from the main road. He had it built just after 1978.
Locally called Argentina Cottage.

Didn’t he at least tell you what half to take

I forgot one other thing he said, and that was don't bother to get changed. He really was a arrogant twat. Respected him as a ref though, he never took any shit, and players knew where they stood.

Did you ever work with David Elleray? I always thought that he liked to make one major decision every match and thereby become prominent.

[Zambo]

Ah the man from Harrow. Another smug twat, involved in many controversies, although he did send Roy Keane off four times.

Remember him being wired up for one match, and his schoolmaster approach was pure comedy, wagging his finger and telling them to stand up straight. Tony Adams called him a fucking cheat, and he did nothing.

Another one I was glad to avoid.

[Sid Pervcat]

Scouser in he.

Wut?

[Sid Pervcat]

He isn't a Scouser, btw

A despicable fucking old twat that one.

I think if he’d been seen around Old Trafford during the 90s he’d have got a proper kicking. Elitist, posh cunt.

Poll and Winter were the worst. A pair of narcissistic cunts.

[Zambo]

Going back over the years can anyone remember what you would call a decent ref, who you didn't notice and who just got on with applying and enforcing the laws of the game?

THE REFEREE'S A WINTER etc

Went all in with the Saudis a full 5 years before Ronaldo. A true trail blazer of a bald Geordie cunt.
