Nigel Owen eggers ref demands football

[Badly Ironed Shirt]

Hyperbole. It's just a case of the biter getting bit, as has been pointed out already. If someone had made up stuff about our crowds or the rebrand here then he'd have been flying in armed with quotes and links, mocking the poster for being in denial and rewriting history while finding the whole thing amusing and fascinating, a la TLG. He'd probably have dropped a 1984 reference in too, to let us know he's heroically standing up for the truth while the rest of us are being brainwashed by Tan's propaganda.

However, in this thread (amusingly and fascinatingly), he's been caught out making up stuff about parks football in his desperation to win a debate about sin-bins (on the message board of a team he doesn't support, of course). I don't remember that happening to Winston Smith in 1984 but I haven't read that for a while so I stand to be corrected.

Lots of assumptions in this post, I'll keep you waiting a little while longer.

Thanks Nick, it wasn't even one of my better ones.

While you're keeping us waiting, you can have a look at this brief national survey on the sin bin trials. Non league refs are a funny breed, you've assured us that they hate sin bins yet 80% of them want the scheme to continue next season (as well as 77% of coaches and 70% of clubs).

80% of all refs? 77% of all coaches? 70% of all clubs?

Well...

Prove him wrong then.

Did you open the link? You said there'd been a trial and the refs hated it, I've just put up the survey results on the trial and 80% of the refs want it to continue. Why would they want it to continue if they hate it? You said the players and the fans hated it yet 70% of the clubs want it to continue. Why, if they hate it?

You keep saying you've got the evidence to back up your argument, it's a shame you can't find the time to put it on here. Maybe your son's toothache is playing up again? Get well soon to him if it is.

80% of what refs? 80% of all refs? 80% of refs in tier 7? 80% of refs in this one division?

Maybe your son's toothache is playing up again? Get well soon to him if it is.

It did flare up again a week or so ago, it appears to be infected and may need removal. I'll pass on your best wishes to him, I'm sure it'll cheer him up no end.

If he's older than 3, get him to explain those survey results to you. You seem to be struggling with them.

Are you older than 3? If so, maybe you can tell me which referees were surveyed and how many.
