I agree totally with what you are saying, that ex-players should become ref's

Oh without doubt. They are better equipped to deal with the cheat...sorry, gamesmanship that is rife. They are also generally fitter and better able to deal with situations. And it will get shut of the biggest issue with refs "Camera is on me" look how some refs will card "Generic Player X" in comparison to how they will card say Rooney, it's so OTT at times. Arm straight up. Chest out. Run and come to a stop. It makes me sick.
And this isn't me sticking up for UTD, Villa got absolutely bummed on several off-sides today.
I understand that game is hella fast, someone like Ronaldo level on an offside is almost impossible to spot, I get that. But some decisions are just pathetic.
