    On Scudamore and having read into this more and had a quick google it appears that you could pay for 10 3G pitches with 250k, but clubs would rather donate it to a multi-millionaire? Also, why an even quarter of a million each, shouldn't it be different amounts based on placing, as that's what he believes in right?

    Shambles.

    Actually, I’m that pissed off with this that later today I will email several organisations about it, Saints included.

    It is appalling.

    “Shambles” isn’t strong enough.

    Yep me too. Disappointed (though not surprised) that we didn't object.

    Absolute ****ing shambles and I'm on my way to burn down their HQ.

    I'm going to do the same. As a referee who referees at grassroots level I'm very much aware of the state of it. Clubs at Wessex League level for example are desperate for money to keep going. A lot of players aren't paid just so they can play. It's a ****ing disgrace.

    Would be interesting to know how many 3/4G pitches there are in Southampton.

    I feel bad at times - Wessex League referees are apparently the best paid in the country for that level. Clubs have to find £140 from every home game just to pay the officials. That may not sound like a lot but gates for Wessex League games are rarely more than 50 at div 1. So that's £250 at best through the gates and well over half of that goes to the match officials.

    How much of that 140 do you get though?

    Is the £140 split evenly or does the main ref get a bigger cut? Not entirely sure how much they get when I play, I'll have to remember to ask someone on Saturday.

    If you get on your knees in the refs changing room before kick off , Tom also chucks in a late controversial penalty free of charge.

    60 for the ref and 40 each for the assistants.
