And Wendy Toms.

 

Yeah, she's the one Mike Newell got into trouble about by criticising her. I couldn't remember her name.

 

Mind you there will probably now be lots of jokes concerning her name. I personally never met her when she was tomming.

Posted

No, it was Amy Fearn who Newell had a pop at.

Have I got it all wrong then. Was Wendy Toms the first one to run the line?

Posted

Yes, Toms was the first.

Newell had a pop at Fearn, who was called Amy Rayner at the time.

 

I've looked Toms up on T'internet now. She was the linesman(sic) in the Leicester Tranmere league cup final and disallowed what would have been an equalising goal by Tranmere for offside.

Therefore she's the best liner in the league!

I bet SKY don't have the bollocks to sack them.

A warning followed by their apologies. Maybe they'll send her some flowers & chocolates.

I'd hazard a guess that bird knows more about football than Keys.

 

It was one of those offsides thats the toughest to judge.

 

Defender pushing out, attacker running oppositely. She has to make a decision based on the position of three things at one instant when the ball is played from a long distance away.

 

They're massively difficult to call and she got it spot on.

 

Andy Gray is such a smug cunt who thinks he knows it all as he draws arrows on a screen.

 

You're a bellend Andy.

I've thought for a long time all his technology is smoke & mirrors & yes he irritates me.

On the whole women don't know that much about football, but Andy, comments like that make you look a bellend.

To be fair, I'm not always sure I understand the offside rule nowadays.

That's probably because you're too in touch with your feminine side! :tongue:

Posted

I'd be interested if they'd made "funny" comments about someone of another race if it'd been handled the same.

 

Ron Atkinson is the man to ask about that.

Your dog knows more about football than Keys

 

It's a disgrace that people should think these stupid thoughts; they should be sacked today

I cannot believe he has made a living by highlighting players and saying they will run forwards and backwards using a fancy computer screen!

and another thing, she got that offside spot on, but there was a degree of luck about it

 

always is with those

 

but she was no worse than plenty we've had
