Worst referee I've ever seen was a certain Mr G Shaw of Oldham (always remembered him). He sent off three Alty players in a home fixture against Slough Town around 1995/96 or thereabouts. He also had a stinker in one of our away games at Halifax if I remember correctly.

Remember that game. I think Slough scored a penalty late on?

A Mark West penalty according to the tinternet

The the internet?

Mr Shaw stayed in his dressing room til after six that day and then insisted that four stewards walk him to his car

He really was dreadful

Sorry, I'm being a pedantic tw*t about your use of the word "the" before tinternet.

Saturday, 13th January 1996   
GM Vauxhall Conference
Altrincham...0
Slough Town...1

The abject referee, Gary Shaw, sent off three Alty players that afternoon: Barry Butler, Mark Hughes and Greg Challender.

if i had known that I'd have given him less stick.....actually i wouldn't....every single time damian got the ball their number 8 was practically making rough man love to him....and the ref either didn't see it....or didn't see anything wrong with that.....also seemed to only give about 1 in 5 fouls which tended to annoyingly be the soft ones.....he's not as a good a ref as his brother was a footballer.

Given he's probably grown up watching Eddie 'tackle' people then I'm not surpised he didn't see anything wrong with the physical aspect of the game!! :D
