Title: Man City's favourite referee sent off...... Post by: tikay on February 17, 2017, 10:20:45 AM ...to South Africa, where he will some £540,000 per year, compared to £140,000 a year in his current position. The £140,000 is said to include "bonus" matches in European Competitions & Internationals, as well as what he earns in the English Premier League. Would you do his job - & all the uninformed abuse from Team Armchair & Team Lolzz - for £140,000 per year? Don't think I would. Football referees are like policemen, or traffic wardens - people dislike them & criticise them illogically. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38993655 Title: Re: Man City's favourite referee sent off......

Thought it was quite surprising that Mr Clattenburg is leaving the EPL immediately - like, right away. I'd have assumed the EPL referees were all contracted on a season by season basis, but it seems they are freelance & can come & go when they please. A much less glamorous, if better paid, assignment though. Echoes of Don Revie, all those years ago. Title: Re: Man City's favourite referee sent off......
