I firmly believe that a major problem is that officials don't have the bottle to send players off or even book them, just for example the Torres red card, the official had the usual big rants Terry and co, arguing with the official.

What should happen, if players dispute the decision made, book them, officials cannot allow this problem to go on.

The company that deals with referee's back there officials to the hilt and suspend those that are bad, BUT they have to be more tougher, as the PL is not about football anymore, its about mega-money, and players are spoilt little brats.

Only recently, we had a player who demanded a hairdryer, as the club they were at, didn't have any, and his club went and got one.

Officials should get tougher.

That doesn't sound especially unreasonable, considering they provide shower facilities.

POG66, l don't remember the player or club, but it was in the PL.

And l thought, talk about pampering the player, when l played football, it was a luxury to have showers.

yeah they might but as long as match fixing isn't happening i couldn't care less. these players get paid big money, their careers are at the training ground deal with it!

hmrc looking into the above. the premier leagues like gold, the revenue continues to rise. fergie said himself the product it too strong. downer is other European countries have different rules regarding tax which goes against England so all things have to be taken into account, be too strict and our league might flop.
