Thread: Rebecca Welsh Promoted to PL

    Rebecca Welsh Promoted to PL

    I and pretty much everyone around me agreed she was dreadful, for both teams. Looked lost, unsure of herself, out of position, things which other clubs' forums have said when she has refereed their games. She's not even up to EFL standard

    Totally agree,unfortunately like most other things in this era it seems like ability is not a top priority.

    She'll have to learn quickly, referees are exposed to extreme pressure in the Premier League, VAR and cameras everywhere, the World will be watching!

    I don’t think that one City match was an audition to see if she was Premier League standard. I thought she was poor that day, but presumably that wasn’t a typical performance from her.

    She's allowed to have bad days

    I hope she succeeds

    If she's crap she will soon be dropped

    I rather she refereed than commentated

    It will be interesting to see how she manages the physical demands with an increase in pace in the Premier League.

    I seem to remember her getting in the way of players quite a bit and languishing in the midfield a bit.

    I do hope it goes well for her and maybe the players will treat her with a bit more respect than they do the Male referees.

    Players on both sides were publicly laughing at her and her decisions.
