Did any of you see the Wigan Sheffield game this morning?

The ref called a pk, spoke to his assistant, called off the pk, and then properly restarted the game with a drop ball.

Brilliant, world class. A ref interested in making the RIGHT call instead of THE call.

That video should be used as a training tape for refs around the world.

Alikira, try to be a bit more discrete than this chap when officiating your beloved Club I.

That is absolutely unbelievable.

As he's doing the 'yessssss' he blowing the end of the game.

You have to wonder sometimes...

I think he's happy because he played ' Advantage ' and a goal was scored. He's celebrating the fact that the advantage worked out.
Right at the very start it looks like there was a foul at the half-way line. If you watch the A/R in the background he's ready to call the foul , then he acknowledges the signal from the ref.
I think the ref. gave the ' Advantage ' signal at that point.
All referees are happy when an advantage works out , but to do what he did is a bit naughty !
Mike Reed did this in a game at Anfield a few seasons ago. Apparently he was scheduled to referee the FA cup final that year , but when the FA saw him do this , he was removed from the game.
