Title: jeff winter Post by: lebowski on Monday, January 22, 2007, 18:14:15 from his book (i havent read it, just been told about this passage):
"I had mixed feelings. On the one hand I wanted to finish the game a little early and get off the pitch before people saw big tough Jeff Winter in tears. Then again, I didn’t want the game to end. Liverpool were 4-0 up, so it was in my hands. Nobody would care either way. In the end I played a little bit extra, waiting until play was at the Kop end, before sounding the final shrill blast — a bit like the Last Post. The fans behind the goal burst into spontaneous applause. It was longer and louder than normal, even for a big home win. Did they know it was my final visit? Was the applause for me? They are such knowledgeable football people, that it would not surprise me." what an enormous fucking cunt.

Title: jeff winter Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, January 22, 2007, 18:34:27 Slightly biased.
Title: jeff winter Post by: DMR on Monday, January 22, 2007, 19:34:58 we had him (winter) for a cricket club sporting dinner a while back and he was excellent, we've had graham poll too who was an egotistical cunt (suprise suprise)- so on the whole i think he's ok
Title: jeff winter Post by: Fred Elliot on Monday, January 22, 2007, 19:47:48 Now why as a Cricket Club would you invite two premiership referees to a sporting dinner.
Would it not have been prudent to keep in on a cricket theme ? :wink: Title: jeff winter Post by: yeo on Monday, January 22, 2007, 19:50:42 Its sarcasm anyway.
We had Poll and Winter doing a sporting thing at the Grot.I didnt pay to see them I just parked myself in there at dinner time and didnt go home both were very entertaining from what i remember. Title: jeff winter Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, January 22, 2007, 19:54:07 I think that's pretty funny myself.
Title: jeff winter Post by: Spud on Monday, January 22, 2007, 20:10:34 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: now that is funny.
He then went onto say "i think the Liverpool fans realised that seeing me leave would be a bigger thing than seeing Fowler play his last game for the Club" Title: jeff winter Post by: Spencer_White on Monday, January 22, 2007, 20:31:18 But to even say that sort of stuff in jest is strange to me. To even think it.
Refs should be made to take an ego test before officiating. Title: jeff winter Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, January 22, 2007, 20:32:34 I think he might have said it tongue in cheek though
Title: jeff winter Post by: lebowski on Tuesday, January 23, 2007, 17:27:17 i'm sure he's a wonderful after-dinner speaker and i thank you for letting me know, but that does't make up for the fact that he is a grade A, 100% certified, bona-fide prat.

Refs should be made to take an ego test before officiating. I'm sure that it was a joke and he'd stopped officiating since. Title: jeff winter Post by: Spencer_White on Wednesday, January 24, 2007, 21:16:44 Winter should back in his box. No one gives a fuck about refs. A good ref is a ref you never notice.
