Arsenal vs Hull City: FA Cup Final, Match Thread.

The ref & linesmen each get £375 and the fourth official gets £320

 

Less than I would have thought for a premiership ref

 

Seriously? with all the money in todays game and ref's still make a pittance.

Anyone know what a premier league ref's salary is for the year? I assume its not pay as you ref for league game.s

 

What's that expression - pay peanuts.....

 

To be fair 85k a year may not be much compared to players but it's a decent wage.

 

I thought Terry Neil was out of his depth when he came to Hull.

 

I was offered £500 for mine. Will you beat that?

 

What's the deal with this international friendly, is that still going on/been already or was someone yanking my chain?! Last thing we need that.

Also, is it me or is this week dragging like nobodies business? I've been that nervous I've already gone through all me knickers - I can only pity the guys I work with... Only fooking Thursday too! My nerves definitely are hanging by a thread.

 

They arrive by helicopter and sleep at The Ritz?

 

Decent? Its a bloody awesome wage! Especially for the hours they put in too.

 

not bad for 2 hours a week

 

Well, they could do more than one game a week but yeah, exactly!

 

You know if you work extra hours you get overtime,i wonder if certain refs used to get paid ''Fergie Time''

 

Im sure they did but it wont be on record

 

I hear that Piers Morgan will be on suicide watch just in case.

Expect "The Samaritans" to be busy if Hull win. Does Wenger have the number ?

 

We have lost any that were susceptible to this kind of thing after the Birmingham loss. Most Arsenal fans would take it in their stride, just as we have taken every other blow we have had over the last while.

I think that you should be more worried about the pundits that will have to actually praise Arsenal next year, or predict that we will win. A few of them may have to go on suicide watch as they would probably rather die than say something nice about us.

 

That's it, give the Gooners an upside in case they lose.

 

every cloud.........

 

Just popped over to wish you luck Saturday and you get some silverware at last. Been a closet fan since 80's when my favourite player of time Paul mariner joined you.
Arsenal 3-1 Hull.
