Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.

A few seasons ago Riley refereed Man U in a number of home games and I believe (and I might have got the numbers the wrong way round) he gave 8 penalties in 6 games to them (possibly 6 in 8 but I think it was the season he gave two against us at Old Toilet so I could have been right first time). He didn't referee any scum away games that season until the very end of the season when they played Everton. Yes, you've guessed it, he gave them a penalty in a 1-0 win! Not for nothing is he known as their tame refereeOriginally posted by MrMichael View PostMike "if you're not going to just let them score I'll have to give them a penalty" Riley could be a ManU supporter? Perish the thought!
I'm looking forward to Everton kicking lumps out of them.... and beating them.

I think this is a load of tosh. The record of Manc games ref'd by Riley proves that. Only thing I would say is that all refs need to be stronger when managing in the big games and at the big stadiums. But there aren't many refs around who don't normally appear to cave in to pressure from the big teams, which is pitiful really.Forwards.......

They have to announce it when taking the job and this is taken into account when games are handed out.Originally posted by Marky View PostI've always wondered what team referees support.
Though you would guess that a Man Utd fan would not admit his true colours as he would be denied a hell of a lot of big games, likewise Liverpool fans.
The ultimate goal for a Ref is the same as a player, be involved in the big games.Forwards.......
