Really happy for him having been in the same primary school class as him, he's not afraid to dish cards out or tell players they are on a final warning no matter what the circumstances, nice lad too

The FA Trophy final is between two teams - York City and Newport County, not the Referee.
And neutral fans such as myself will be going to be entertained by the players and hopefully not the officials.

I don't think anyone has suggested that you might go there to watch the Referee (that is for sad, other Referees like me)

However I don't think it unreasonable to highlight it when a local bloke and Alty fan is successful in his chosen career and that success is recognised by a 'plum' appointment. And when sais chap is as well known to as many people as Ant is I would say that is even more reason to bring his success to the attention of the forumites.

Many apologies if my initial post has caused you offence

So after every 'wrong' decision, why is that the only person most people are willing to discuss?

Discuss away but don't get upset if not everyone agrees with you.

ATS post was about a local lad who has done well and had been to Alty a fair few times.  Seemed fair enough to me...

Unbelievable

I for one think that anyone who has success in his chosen field deserves praise. Thanks Phil for bringing this to our attention.

And me, we've had many more "non-Alty relevant" threads in the past and referees,and refereeing decisions have formed a major part of them.



Apologies in advance to the grammar referees for excessive use of conjunctions.  ;)
