http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-20595046 I have never heard of any match officials over here being beaten to death by some of the players! Injured by players, unfortunately yes, but not killed! What has the world come to? I officiate at local level and although there have been a few hairy moments in 15 years I have never known anything like this. I would just like to share my deepest sympathy for the poor family he leaves behind and I hope that we never see an incident like this ever again.
