Title: Mike Newell on Assitant Referee.
Post by: Scot Munroe on Saturday, November 11, 2006, 20:32:04
Luton manager Mike Newell on assistant referee Amy Rayner:
"She should not be here. I know that sounds sexist, but I am sexist, so I am not going to be anything other than that.
"We have a problem in this country with political correctness, and bringing women into the game is absolutely beyond belief.

"It is bad enough with the incapable referees and linesmen we have, but if you start bringing in women, you have big problems.

"This is Championship football. This is not park football, so what are women doing here? It is tokenism for the politically-correct idiots."

i actually agree with newell but for different reasons.

im one of those people who dont like it when men scream and swear at woman.footballers will do this to a ref/lineswoman no matter what their sex.kids watching football and seeing woman getting screamed at and surrounded will not be a good thing imo

You never know, a female ref may calm players down, like bringing cows into a bullring...."Ooooh, it's the la-dies" :D

No female ref could be any worse than the mutant we had yesterday - reckon Carlisle had promised him a crate of Kendal Mint Cake

I agree with some of his points.  Esp when games can get out of control etc. male officials are IMO a better option.  Let the women ref womens matches and men ref the men.

Bloody rubbish, so football managers aren't allowed to have opinions?  This world is going crazy.

Looks like Newell's job is on the line now! Probably because he slagged off the chairman.... Who's not a women. Thus proving that Mike Newell hates everyone after losing.
