http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/mike-dean-demoted-championship-following-9639760 cos he has been criticising refs recent performances. FA is rather petty.
I think you've mis-interpreted that old chap. He's been demoted because he's effing useless, he is the one that's been criticised.
Does my head in this. Someone makes a high-profile mistake and they're 'rested' or 'demoted' for a week. What is the point?
If he's not good enough, then he's not good enough. The league is irrelevant Are decisions in the Championship not as important as the same decision in PL?! ****ing ridiculous
I would assume it is a financial punishment, drop them down to a lower division whereby I would guess they get less money.
It's because the Premier League has an enormous worldwide audience and the Championship doesn't, it's simply a case of taking them out of the firing line.
Legendary hip-hop producer Mike Dean not happy about being blamed for his namesake's refereeing mistakes
It won't change him. He'll honestly think the 25000 people or whatever at the Leeds/Barnsley game will be there to watch him.
