So I'd assume she trains to be a lino rather than a ref She does actually Ref games, she does games in the WSL, don’t know if she still does but she has reffed the men’s under 23’s as I’ve seen her do a game down the King Power 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were "average" anyway with a bit of promotion momentum behind them. I said all along, I always viewed them the same as Ipswich/Reading etc who come up, do well, then go back down. It was laughable people were comparing Wilder to Dyche when Dyche has comfortably had Burnley stay up for 4/5 seasons in a row including a spell in Europe. I always said Sheffield United would go down this season and still believe it. Their squad is so bad. Their strikers only scored about 10 goals between each other last season and Wilder has bought Brewster from Liverpool but aside from that still has McBurnie/Sharp/McGoldrick. Not exactly great options are they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxinsocks Posted 18 October 2020 Share Posted 18 October 2020 Anyone else confused when the bbc reports that say arsenal have beaten man city only to discover it refers to a womens match. Cant they say "arsenal women beat man city women"? Same with with referring to womens Fa cup as "Fa cup" I am not implying that the womens matches are not real football... but i would like to avoid confusion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lineker's Lugs Posted 18 October 2020 Share Posted 18 October 2020 39 minutes ago, Paddy. said: She is also genuinely best in the business. Will be interesting to see if she harbours ambitions to be a referee. I'd imagine she'd be better than many of the current lot, Moss, Pawson et al. I've seen her refereeing a couple of times in the women's game (a few seasons ago though) - and she really wasn't good! I agree about her being the best lino, though I wonder if that perception might partly be because she stands out as the only woman. The male assistants kind of blend into one so I don't really build up an opinion about them as individuals. Maybe some are just as good but I don't notice.

I remember he was seen as one for the future - just needs to kick start his career. Surprised Sheffield United didn't start their new striker and record signing in a game they had to win really. Instead got a point via a dubious penalty and Mitrovic having a mare in front of goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowlattsFox Posted 18 October 2020 Share Posted 18 October 2020 Caught the last half hour and Fulham played some decent stuff and were unlucky with the penalty. Lookman looked good in that period. Sheffield United should be worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facecloth Posted 18 October 2020 Share Posted 18 October 2020 2 hours ago, Nuneatonfox in Manchester said: To me it comes across as an attempted display of power, she starts to walk away and he tries to move her back towards him by her neck. Completely inappropriate. IMO Worst because Massey-Ellis is much smaller than him (not because she’s a woman) The Aguero and Lee Mason situation is completely different. Nah, you're looking for an issue where there isn't one. He had a bit of a go at her then calmed down and put his hand on her shoulder as if to say "Sorry been a bit of a dick there" and you can see she puts her hand across to him as if to say, "No worries mate, no hard feelings" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fox_up_north Posted 18 October 2020 Share Posted 18 October 2020 I've just watched it and his body language is that he's trying to apologise or calm the situation. At the end of the day, having female linos will cause some players to struggle but, it's the same as bouncers, coppers, etc. Outbursts happen but so long as people apologise and know where the line is, it's all working towards progress.
