stevieb Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 well we have all seen the posts slagging off the refs but who are the best there are a few so i will start the ball rolling Paul Windle Andty Howes [andre] Neil Harvey , Mike Carter sorry if i have forgotten any one but this may jog my old memory when some other names are mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointers Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 George pattison is by far the best ref in senior football in Cornwall, nige Nicholls is there too, I only really watch senior football but there are some good younger refs in junior football too from what I read in the trelawny league threads.

Andy Wright Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Hilary Achengui. Young, fit and in the right position to make the correct decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Manning Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 The best referee`s are the ones who turn out on their appointed games week in week out, they take the abuse and on occasions all the plaudit`s, but without anyone of them your game would be in chaos.

Bex Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Slow down you melts. All this chitter chatter about ref's is too much, they already think it's all about themselves. All this what was the ref like today with the ref asking the question. Well listen to this, people don't go to a football match to watch the ref. it's the one's who want to be talked about after that ruin it cause they'll make controversial decisions to get what they want, making the game all about them. The ones that go unnoticed are the best ones who aren't bothered about being talked about. Yeah you can't play the game without them, but you can't play the game without goalposts either so let's talk about them for a change can we?

Referee Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 One of the corner flags was rubbish the other week, kept falling down and tried to come on the forum and blame it all on the high winds. I had a team moan about the ball in the Junior Cup last season, it kept finding its way into their goal. .....plenty more where that came from ....... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cescfab_4 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 I have come across many good refs in my time in local football. Three that have stood out on numerous occasions are Al Johns, Neil Hunnisett and Martin Smith. Professional at all times and they are approachable. Firm but fair, the way it should be.

pointers Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Some of the more senior referees are not the best, some by a long shot!!!! I have witnessed some poor performances in combination football, and a couple of these officials have been mentioned in this thread for being top of the list..!!!

Bruegel the Elder Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Well, no less than seven definitions for melt(s) and I didn't know one. Well done the superliterate Yeti.

Bruegel the Elder Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Possibly Ben, however while I fully support the moderators on keeping foul and abusive language off of this forum I am a little concerned that they are censoring links to external sites which are neither illegal or immoral. Maybe it was your warning of immoderate language which alerted Dave to it, but it was still a valid post attempting to answer a serious(ish) question.

Bruegel the Elder Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 There is an article in todays Times newspaper entitled "Eskimo village reveals secrets as ice melts". Should I be worried, and does Bex have anything to do with it? Not sure that the Urban Dictionary covers that definition! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruegel the Elder Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Well, there you go Stevieb, another day closes and we find ourselves not only older but a touch wiser too. With thanks to the suddenly quiet Bex who endeavoured to confound us in the first place and the obviously cool dude Ben the Yeti who pointed us in the right direction. Thanks guys. I trust that none of us will need to use the M word to describe referees ever again. Well, that is except........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
