COMEONYOUREDS Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Oh dear, one of the worst referees around. Can't believe he used to be a regular in the prem!
skings80 Posted 19 August, 2011 Author Posted 19 August, 2011 Oh dear, one of the worst referees around. Can't believe he used to be a regular in the prem! well lets hope he is getting better with age!!!
skings80 Posted 19 August, 2011 Author Posted 19 August, 2011 Best ref in UK imho what makes you say that?
This Charming Man Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 No physical contact allowed tomorrow then.
Toomer Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Perhaps we should sing him a nice song and make him feel loved and wanted, but then again.
bpsaint Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Aside from the Blackburn game when he forgot to send one of their players off what was the other game of ours he was absolute dog**** in? Seem to recall it being fairly recent?
badgerx16 Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Surely a crap ref is generally crap for both sides - unless there is some evidence that he is biased against Saints/south coast teams in general/the home side, or that he specifically favours Millwall/London teams/ the away side. If there is to be minimal physical contact, and as Chappers is suspended, would that not work in our favour, being the new Barcelona and famed far and wide for our silky passing moves ?
doddisalegend Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 No physical contact allowed tomorrow then. Surely good for us........
Reggie Dunlop Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Game will be called because the grass is not green enough on the side of the pitch that the linesman is not (Charlton fiasco springs to mind)
kwsaint Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Well if Chaplow hadn't been sent off last game he would have definately been sent off tomorrow
eelpie Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Surely a crap ref is generally crap for both sides - unless there is some evidence that he is biased against Saints/south coast teams in general/the home side, or that he specifically favours Millwall/London teams/ the away side.

Silky passing moves will be deemed deceitful play
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Surely a crap ref is generally crap for both sides - unless there is some evidence that he is biased against Saints/south coast teams in general/the home side, or that he specifically favours Millwall/London teams/ the away side. If there is to be minimal physical contact, and as Chappers is suspended, would that not work in our favour, being the new Barcelona and famed far and wide for our silky passing moves ? Maybe I'm biased but his (already dire) performances in charge of Saints games seem to intensify (against Saints) following the incident vs Blackburn, in Luggy's last game in charge, where he forgot to send off Barry Ferguson. He has earned the name Andy D'Arsehole in our house and probably many more around the country too...
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Aside from the Blackburn game when he forgot to send one of their players off what was the other game of ours he was absolute dog**** in? Seem to recall it being fairly recent? Well, he called off the Charlton away gamne last christmas because a part of the pitch was frozen, despite having asked for the heaters to be removed from that particular part of the pitch to another part. The game you're probably thinking of is LEeds at home in League One though. We won 1-0 but no thanks to his awful refereeing.
Minty Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Perform well and the ref's performance won't matter. Well, unless he awards them 6 dodgy penalties and/or rules out our 5 perfectly good efforts... But seriously, he may be **** but if we do a proper job then the ref shouldn't matter.
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 If I live to be 200 I will never see a bigger **** of a referee than Roger ****ing Milford, so its all relative.
saintscottofthenortham Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 FFS. that's taken the jam out of my doughnut. "Aaaaaaaandy D'Urso, what a w@nker! What a w@nker!"
Horley CTFC Saint Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Is the ref for the game tomorrow !!!! He got a lot of stick at the Crawley v Macclesfield game last week - seemed to lap it up though!
Trader Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Well, he called off the Charlton away gamne last christmas because a part of the pitch was frozen, despite having asked for the heaters to be removed from that particular part of the pitch to another part. The game you're probably thinking of is LEeds at home in League One though. We won 1-0 but no thanks to his awful refereeing. Tbf that wasn't D'Urso but that equally poor referee Peter Walton (still a Prem ref amazingly)
doubleonothing Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Wasn't D'urso the Ref for the 2nd leg of the playoffs at Pride Park? Don't remember him being that bad that night. Or at least nothing that sticks to mind.
Norm Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Oh dear! We have the bad luck to get D'urso. I really do dislike him as a Referee. Umm, I have a bad feeling about tomorrow.
Cabrone Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 I worked with his brother for a brief period a few years ago - he was a ref too.
Appy Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 The thing with him is at least he is awful for everyone, he doesn't seem to be paticulaly biased towards any team, just pish for everyone.
eurosaint Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 If Carlsberg did referees then D'Urso would probably be the worst ever !! He is absolutely f#cking useless and I am already fearing tomorrow !!

The game you're probably thinking of is LEeds at home in League One though. We won 1-0 but no thanks to his awful refereeing. Perhaps it is the Charlton game I'm thinking of then. That Leeds game was refereed by Peter Walton, by far and wide the worst display by an official I've ever seen at St Marys!
Alain Perrin Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 To be fair to D'Urso I'd probably not take a fan's opinion seriously. Given that the vast majority of St Mary's don't seem to get the offside rule (i.e. it isn't called offside until the ball is touched) - leading the people behind me to go 'facking late call Lino!' every 10 minutes. And, given how much debate was had on another thread about whether the the ball had hit the staunton (even after 10 replays), then I don't think we've got the right to judge a referee's snap decision. Hardly makes any of the ******s in my opinion.
Trader Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Steve Staunton wasn't playing for either side and is anyway far too old now to play for anyone. Staunton is innocent of any wrongdoing in this match.

However he did allow the Cheats to win on Tuesday night therefore he must be a bad Ref.
bpsaint Posted 19 August, 2011 Posted 19 August, 2011 Oldham at home last season! I knew there was another game he was ****ing awful in! Even found a thread in the archive about it!!! http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?25944-That-D-Urso-chap...&highlight=Oldham

To be fair, I wouldn't take your opinion too seriously either if you consider that the 'vast majority' is represented by a few people who sit behind you !
