At circa 4 mins 30 he gives a dropped ball as the ball has hit a tree branch. But the dropped ball is contested … haven’t seen one of those in a while. From that snippet i can guess he will apply laws as fairly as he can but his technical application will be lacking.

TBF, we all need something wrong with us to stick at this game for any length of timeperhaps has an inflated opinion of how good he actually is
Terrible performance from everyone from what I saw! However, football is about grass roots. The overwhelming majority of football jn this country is grass roots. Yea the ref is odd, arrogant and has a far bigger belief in his ability than it would appear to be true, but football needs him, needs the manager and needs the players. It's all a bit dross, but its great.
Bit difficult that though, report a club for accusing you of bias in a video that you have done an interview in without permission. Risking landing both yourself and the club in hot water, even more so when the video shows that you are ignoring law changes. Which means either you aren't keeping up to date, or even worse you know the laws but don't like them so implement your own versions.This is a trend which is gradually creeping into the game due to the high j crease of social media use over the years and I hate it, I’d never dream of being interviewed after a game like this
on a side note, can the FA actively punish teams for throwing around accusations of cheating towards a referee and not only naming him, but placing video footage of him out there? I’d personally be contacting my CFA if I’d have seen myself in this situation
Agreed but excluding the interview, is this something which the CFA would look to punish? The use of social media is more and more prevalent these days so it’s interesting to know whether clubs can make these accusations publicly when naming refereesBit difficult that though, report a club for accusing you of bias in a video that you have done an interview in without permission.

I would hazard a guess that a CFA would view that as misconduct. They should do anyway.Agreed but excluding the interview, is this something which the CFA would look to punish?

Your CFA will probably have a rule about social media use, e.g. getting prior permission. Most do.I was recently asked (by the home team) to do a short bit to camera before I refereed a game, I declined, mainly due to not wanting to be talking to a camera!
I think I'll keep declining if I'm asked before or after a game, I think what I say would likely be used against me in some way.
