Can we send him a commemorative Golden Shinpad?

 

[Pogue Mahone]

We'll miss him when he's gone.

 

[Is it PotG?]

One of the better refs, a tad officious but more consistent than a lot of them.

Aside from the Stephens debacle, he's been OK with us overall.

Atkinson, at Cardiff, well that's a whole new ball game

 

[nicko31]

Aside of Dale Stephens incident, has he been bad for us?

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

To be fair to Dean, he is equally bad to all teams.

 

[Curious Orange]

Can we send him a commemorative Golden Shinpad?

A tiny one.

 

[Pavilionaire]

He has mellowed in the past couple of seasons but before that it was red cards a plenty and all about him.

I'll be glad to see him gone.

 

[Swansman]

Good ref, will be missed.

 

[GT49er]

Will he carry on doing a nice cushy job as a VAR - or is he going to set himself up as a Jasper Carrot look-alike tribute act?

 

[AmexRuislip]

This'll be him confused and wandering around the referee retirement home

 

[Driver8]

He’ll be expecting a guard of honour at his last game.

 

[BBassic]

Brilliant.

Means we can promote up another quality ref to the Elite group.

What's that? They're all shite? Oh.

 

[Stato]

Good! Absolutely the opposite of what a referee should be. The old adage is that a referee's approach should be 'If you don't notice me, then I've had good game.' Dean's was always 'If you don't notice me, then what is the point of me being here.' His frequent incompetence is perhaps understandable. His absolute intransigence when obviously in error is symbolic of everything that is wrong with the PGMOL approach.

Likely TV celebrity wannabe.

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

"Look at his leg! Look at his leg!"

Still drives me insane to this day.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Maybe he could take over from Walton or Clattenburg on TV.

They're both useless.

 

[Durlston]

He'll be leading the Tranmere hooligan firm.

'The Birrrrrrken'ead bovver boys'.

 

[Bozza]
