absolutely thankless task refereeing at all levels and in all sports. Must take its toll on those involved

Better than Nigel Owens for me , though probably just past his zenith.
Suppose technically he didn't send off Sam Cane .

A great referee, a gentleman and a great speaker. He will be missed on the pitch.

Good for him.
As other have noted it isn't easy being "sir".

A great loss to the game. A fantastic referee in my opinion.

A great ref with an amazing love of the game. I have been amazed over the years to see him pop up in preseason matches between Ealing and Nat 1 opponents in the recent past.

Top referee & nice man. I remember some good banter from him to a particularly vocal home supporter at a Richmond pre season game he reffed.

I think technically he might have. IIRC after being told of the upgrade didn't he then show the red card?

I believe that when a TMO upgrades a yellow card review to a red card the referee is obliged to signify the upgrade by showing the red card to the offending player.

Come on chaps. we on here we should know the procedure. Wayne, after consulting with the TMO issues a yellow which is then refered to the 'bunker'. Said 'bunker' official then communicates to the TMO that it is a red. TMO the tells WB to upgrade yellow to red. It is NOT Wayne or the TMO but the guy in the bunker who sent the guy off.

A great ref going out on a high, just a shame he might not do that tradition of refereeing the first match of qualifying for the next World Cup.

Top Chap!!
Back in the day he was incredibly helpful at Ealing as we were developing a referee section across the Club. He attended sessions supporting Middlesex Rugby too. He always seemed to have the knack of explaining his decisions in a way that helped players/coaches and fans understand the decision. Just a thought though - I'd love an irregular Podcast featuring him and Nigel Owens running through the 6N and this new format competition - that could be a right laugh and informative too! |

What a blessing it would be if we could open and shut our ears as easily as we open and shut our eyes!

I would like him to change his mind if only to turn out at a random level 7 fixture just to freak everyone out.
