Australian referee Jarred Gillett will become the first official from outside the British Isles to take charge of a game in the English Premier League.

Gillett will referee Saturday's match between Watford and Newcastle United, the league announced on Monday.

A 34-year-old from the Gold Coast Gillett began refereeing in Australia's A-League in the 2010-11 season. The much-travelled whistle-blower has also officiated in the Japanese, Indian, Chinese and Saudi leagues.


Gillett has been officiating in the lower tier English Football League since April 2019 having moved to the UK to do post-doctoral research at Liverpool John Moores University.

He was promoted to a panel of Premier League referees ahead of this season and has already worked as a video assistant referee.

Republic of Ireland-born Dermot Gallagher officiated in the Premier League for a number of years.

Gallagher moved to England aged 16 and was registered to the Oxfordshire FA having competed his qualifications.

A good step in the right direction. I reckon he becomes the best ref in the premiership straight away. The English league is the most watched and successful league in the world but apart from the terrible commentary and analysis, the refereeing is of an abysmal quality. Let's get the best refs in the best league and get rid of the likes of Atkinson. What say the caf?

English refs are shit. I welcome our new foreign overlords with open arms.

 

[Zaphod2319]

Please let it be Anthony Taylor's job!

 

[Nick7]

He’s been utter shite as a VAR ref so I presume he’ll be utter shite as a normal ref too.

Oliver is going to be pis**ed off by that statement.

So bad he was kicked out of Australia

Give us a couple penalties at anfield and I might reconsider.

No chance. We pissed off teenage Oliver by winning everything. Now he wants revenge.

Will the English referees start a pile?

Goodness me he’s shite. Gave a second yellow & red to a player who hadn’t even been booked in the CL the other day.

There's a joke here begging

 

[Classical Mechanic]

He's not been brought over specifically for his refereeing skills. He moved here to study and started refereeing in the pyramid. He'll probably be the same as the rest of them.

 

[Becks_VII]

Seen a few of his mic'd up games in Oz league and seemed a very good levelled headed ref who spoke with the players well and explained decisions without much fuss. Not sure how he got on since coming here, must be decent since he's been promoted.

 

[Crustanoid]

Hopefully the new breed will resume the practice of accepting brown envelopes from SAF/Ole

 

[TheReligion]

Let's hope he doesn't bring that annoying cnut of a linesman with him. His voice kills me.

 

[Sassy Colin]

That's jeerbs, btw.

Ever since I saw he was from Australia I've been waiting for a sent him back to where he came from joke.

 

[Sassy Colin]

Even better

 

[Oranges038]

Diderkerderrbbbs....

 

[Red Shorts]

Even better

I would go one further, but zero justification would be served from writing it out. Im sure you know what I mean.

 

[Hugh Jass]

Basically, it's thread fail.

Basically, it's thread fail.

I clicked on the thread hoping Parker & Stone bought United, so any other story of this thread was an instant fail anyway.

 

[Isotope]

Seeing his age, if he's a glory hunter, he could be United fan. #Goodtime #infergiespocket

 

[Withnail]

I was just about to say. He sounds like a little Aussie goblin. His voice was going through me

 

[Irrational.]

Good. The sooner the likes of Atkuntson, Dean and Oliver are fecked off and made redundant the better.

 

[RedDevil@84]

No chance. After Twattenburg, Oliver is FA's new golden boy.

Seems good here. How long has he been with the FA though? Hopefully he’s not fully indoctrinated with the incompetence.

What is wrong with the commentary and analysis?

 

[tenpoless]

Has also officiated in the Japanese, Indian, Chinese and Saudi leagues.
Can only be a good thing.

 

[KiD MoYeS]

Dermot Gallagher is Irish so this guy is not the first overseas referee but yeah, the current crop of referees need upgrading so the Premier League needs all the help it can get.

Oz is riddled with Liverpool fans, isn't it?

He went to refereeing school in Liverpool

Have you heard Michael Owen speak? Shearer? Wright? Neville? Carragher? I find them all to be terrible personally. Tyler is annoying as hell too

Right
Sounds like you would be better off just using your Mute facility on your device

That's exactly what I do. Only thing I feel I miss out on is the crowd noise.
