Blunder referee Andre Marriner has been dumped from this weekend’s Barclays Premier League list as punishment for allowing Blackburn’s controversial goal at Wigan.
Thats OK then.
Never understand whythey do that?

It annoys me as how does that help us??? a public flogging outside the DW would be more to my liking.
Refs make absolute howlers from time to time. I dont think we have had any more than other clubs called against us ! Look at Spurs that time when Carroll scooped the ball out of the back of the net ! It actually hit the back of the net !! On the other hand Freddie Sears scored for Palace but the ref was the only person on this planet who thought different !! We will always have human error and we will just have to accept it !!

Fact. In way of. Story, and all that though, eh?
Int it funny that a massive blunder by the ref gets the DS’s on here saying its no excuse for dropping 2 points, just accept it, things even up blah blah blah. However the same DS’s are the first to point out that although Di Santo scored 3 goals they were all jammy deflections. :blink:

What a journey!All I am saying is there is nothing we can do about it and so both we the fans and more importantly the players have to put this behind us now and focus on the next game !
As for the ball hitting the back of the net, there is nothing wrong with a bit of sensationalism !! I did think that you would point out my exaggeration Griff !! I swear on it, I did !! You didn’t let me down ! The ball was over more than Lampard’s though and any other I have ever seen come to think of it !Blunder referee Andre Marriner has been dumped from this weekend’s Barclays Premier League list as punishment for allowing Blackburn’s controversial goal at Wigan.out of interest, did anybody at the game actually see that the ball hadn’t been touched by the player who put it down and claim/shout about it at the time?
certainly none of our players protested;
and whilst it looked a bit iffy, i thought that it must have been legitThere were a whole bunch of us shouting protest in the WS9/10 area.
Most players were not looking as they were setting up the set piece, but it did surprise me they didnt complain.

Considering that its likely to be Marriner’s full time job & will hit him in the pocket to the tune of about 1000 quid per game he isn’t given in the top flight, then that’s probably why they do it.
Its the equivalent of a player being banned & fined for being sent off I guess. Regardless it should teach him to be more observant & less complacent in future. Not that it helps Latics like
NB – the amount he’ll lose out on will fall if he gets given games in the lower leagues as replacements.I thought they were all on salaries now (£40k per year rings a bell), not paid a fee per game, ever since they went full-time professional.

What a journey!I thought they were all on salaries now (£40k per year rings a bell), not paid a fee per game, ever since they went full-time professional.They get paid a salary/retaining fee to be on the professional referees panel (or whatever they call it) which is around £35k-£40k a year depending on where you get the info from.
On top of that they also get £900-£1600 per game that they referee (again depending on where you read that although I as told at a referees association meeting that its “about a grand a game”) and their expenses paid (mileage, accomodation etc..) + a car.
So if a premier league ref does 38 games in a season you’re probably looking at about £75k-£80k a year before expenses & as they’re classed as self employed they’ll be all sorts of tax breaks they get too.
In the Evo-Stik premier division I get £30 for running the line!!!! :( :(
