Not really. Frank will have better knowledge of referee assessment than me, having said that I can tell you unequivocally that you see more from the stand in terms of position and reactions than anybody can through the TV or at pitchside.

In general yes,I agree.On the difficult situations,not so much imo.Guess it depends on what they're supposed to judge...
Having several replays would be unfair when I think about it,have to assess what they see real time.

Hasn't Evan said this is the first he's heard of it?

Looks like it is a non starter as he is unable to work abroad as he is on the sex offenders list.

Fernando Torres was presented to the Atlecico Madrid fans today, infront of 40,000 fans in the Calderon. I think his first match will be against Real Madrid, in the Copa Real, on Wednesday night.

What a horrible, grubby club Oldham are. They were the first team to sign Hughes after he came out and now Evans......classless

Sorry but I disagree. Oldham Athletic do an awful lot of good work within the local community. They may not have the resources of the their neighbours in Manchester, but they spend a lot of time and money on community relations.

And I wonder what all of those people doing that community work, think of their employment of convicted rapist Ched Evans? I wonder what those in the community think?

I'm sure their voices will be heard if they're that bothered, much like the people associated with Sheffield United.

I cannot answer that, but you said that Oldham were a horrible club, and that was what I disagreed with.

Accrington Stanley fans are being asked to spend £20 on souvenir tickets for a game which will never happen.
The League Two side were drawn to play at home to Manchester United in the third round of the FA Cup ahead of their second-round replay with Yeovil last month, which they proceeded to lose 2-0.
The limited-edition tickets are being marketed as marking the club's FA Cup run but fans have likened the idea to the catchphrase from TV quiz show Bullseye "let's see what you could have won", with one saying: "In reality, it's hardly an FA Cup run. We entered round one and exited round two."

What the actual fucking fuck?

Wojciech Szczesny fined after smoking in the showers.
Isn't that also illegal, smoking indoors? Fans would be ejected if they lit up in the stadium.

That was a classic when compared to the Fulham v Sheff Utd replay from last season.
