I was recently doing a referee course where one of the referee training officers was talking about losing control of games due to brawls. And he brought up the battle of stamford bridge where Tottenham drew to Chelsea in 2015 causing Tottenham to lose the tile race, and then he said “ mark clattenburg one of the better english refs in this country lost control of that game”.

And that statement surprised me because i always heard that clattenburg was a bad ref. So i ask what are or were the best english refs if with even have any that is?

    It’s very simple. The refs you’ve never heard about were the best.

    Clattenberg and Dean are at a point where they’re happy to admit that they didn’t do things right just so they get attention.
