The incorrect decisions, mistakes and general poor refereering in the English Premier League. I read something a few days ago where they spoke about how poor the refereering is compared to the continent.
Var is causing it's own issues, but the refereering in the Prem has become a joke. Yesterday, a referee didn't even know he had blown his own whistle to start play for an attacking free kick (Brighton Vs WBA), only to be told by the players he had, resulting in a goal being disallowed, allowed then disallowed again.
I didn't write this message in the Ref and Var thread as I wanted to discuss specifically why our league has such poor Refs at the moment and I didn't want this message to get lost in that thread. What are the reasons, has the training changed etc
In the Championship a Ref pushing his head up against another player last week. No authority, example setting or control.
Why have things dropped so much? I'm comparing to the days of Graham Poll etc
