not a bad ref, but i'd have preferred the alien guy from italyQuote:
It has been announced that English referee Uriah Rennie will be the man in charge when Cork City face Nantes at Turners Cross on July 24th. Rennie has been a referee in the English premiership for the past few years. Rennie will be assisted by two English assistants, Kevin Pike and Roger East.
.
The Ukranian at the Cross on Sunday would have done...
Best ref I've seen in a long time.
Which doesn't say much about eL refs...
He has retired from european competitions afaik. Euro 2004 was his last tournament.Quote:

there were rumours that since the retirement age in the Premiership is 49 they were going to offer hima contract to ref, haven't heard too much of it since.Quote:

There are too many bad refs out there to be retiring one of his calibre. Hope he gets a contract in England.
Is this the fella who has his own agent and does Kung Fu as a prematch warm up?
Big tall and blocky Black chap?

Only thing about the assistant on the Donie Forde side was that he turned his back on a Dutchie and Doyler late on and missed the clogmiester giving Doyler a slap across the head.
Couldn't get over the number of times I applauded the decisions of all 3 officials.
