Title: Re: The ref has Swindon connections Post by: Ardiles on Monday, May 24, 2010, 09:57:47 One of the Millwall fans on that forum made the same point that occured to me...if there are any 50/50 decisions, Webster will need to be very careful not to be seen to favour us.
If it is true that he has Swindon/Wootton Bassett connections, I'd rather he was replaced. Title: Re: The ref has Swindon connections Post by: Barry Scott on Monday, May 24, 2010, 09:59:55 Like that Millwall thread and Ardiles say, I see this as a negative. I'd prefer a neutral. Can't see how this will be a benefit to us as he's a professional and i can only see him leaning towards Millwall in many situations so as to not look biased.

Title: Re: The ref has Swindon connections Post by: Peter Venkman on Monday, May 24, 2010, 10:18:30 Perhaps he is part of a huge family with 6 or 7 brothers and sisters which could mean that he has up to 20+ nephews and nieces and they could be spread all over the country even close to Millwall maybe?
Just a possibility, I wouldn't read anything into it at all. He himself is not from Swindon or live in or around Swindon....so no clash of interests at all IMO.

No begins with an L she did have a younder sister mindTitle: Re: The ref has Swindon connections Post by: Nijholts Nuts on Monday, May 24, 2010, 10:23:39 What youve got to remember is that all the referees are professional and impartial and dont take any sides during the match.
Yeah whatever... :no: Title: Re: The ref has Swindon connections Post by: DV on Monday, May 24, 2010, 10:25:48 Fuck it, I'd love a Swindon biased ref. Then maybe when the Millwall centre backs use Paynter as a ladder, or get him in a headlock the free kick might be given to us instead of against us!
Title: Re: The ref has Swindon connections Post by: pauld on Monday, May 24, 2010, 10:52:26 The Ref on Saturday is Coline Webster and he has family who live in Swindon........ I think the most astonishing revelation in this post is not the family connections, actually. Tell us, is "Coline" pre- or post-op?Title: Re: The ref has Swindon connections Post by: Arriba on Monday, May 24, 2010, 12:45:32 can't roger milford come out of retirement?
Title: Re: The ref has Swindon connections Post by: Ardiles on Monday, May 24, 2010, 12:52:42 can't roger milford come out of retirement? What we really need is David Elleray out of retirement! (Pointless, yet surprising, fact: he was only 38 years old when he reffed our last game at Wembley in 1993.)
