Why on earth do we bother giving up our weekends, away from families, to put up with utter morons.
Today, after giving a penalty (keeper went right through the back of the striker) and issuing a red card (keeper then stamped on the player) I was treated to a chorus of 'f' words, the 'c' word on 3 occasions, being called a cheat, goalkeeper gloves thrown at me. cue abandonment.
then I got sarcastically applauded from the field of play all the way to my changing room at the other side of a cricket field. and on walking to my car I was met with a threat of violence and told to f off until I was out of the car park.
It's a pity that 1 team can make you feel so low when the opposing team were one of the nicest bunch of guys I've ever refereed.
