Clearing signal about Fenerbache ridiculous statement with this good appointment for Lindhout
ReplyDeleteVery good, regardless of the referee involved, indeed, this is how a committee must deal with such stupid statements. Very good game and observer for the Dutch, hopefully he will do well.
Delete
DeleteDo you think that the committee would support a judge who comes from Serbia, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic...? I certainly wouldn't.

The last international match for Matej Jug. A nice career for him.
ReplyDeleteIs he leaving the list at the end of the calendar year?
DeleteYes. 45 age limit in Slovenia
DeleteWhat about slavko vincic who is 46 also leave?
DeleteSozza repeating Panathinaikos after a UCL qualifier in July. Surely this appointment should have been avoided.
ReplyDeleteWhat is happening for antonio nobre we didn't see him except one match
ReplyDeleteI assume UEFA wasn't impressed with his performance in France - Iceland WCQ match in September.
DeleteIIRC he had three non-factual OFRs in that game, at least two.
In my opinion, appointments involving German referees and Greek clubs (here Stegemann in PAOK vs. SK Brann) should be avoided as Greek federation bring German referees for biggest games for quite some time.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that UEFA is backing Lindhout here is a strong signal that it finds the situation in Türkiye (and the way local referees are treated) unacceptable. UEFA is actually showing some backbone for once, which is noteworthy. And rightly so, because bad behaviour sets a precedent. Clubs shouldn’t get a free pass to tear referees apart after a loss.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that: How different things would have been if the decision had gone against PSG or an Italian club…
