Go mbeannai Dia Sasana --- Tredhearcacht na Caimileireachta
Welcome to Part 3 of our interview with the Stella Maris Cell from Dundalk.
These posts will conclude on our 18th birthday on 11/11.
They represent our present to you all.
The boys of Liverpool, when we safely landed
Called meself a fool, I could no longer stand it
Blood began to boil, temper I was losing
Poor old Erin's Isle, they began abusing
"Hurrah me soul" says I, me shillelagh I let fly
Some Galway boys were by and saw I was a hobble in
With a loud "Hurray!" joined in the affray
We quickly cleared the way for the rocky road to Dublin
The Rocky Road To Dublin
6. The Replacement Of Integrity With Spectacle & 'Randomised' Officiating In The Premier League - Match Officials Who Are Not Only Owned By Inappropriate Forces But Who Also Trade On The Corruptions That They Are Perpetrating & How Such Officials Rise To The Top Of The Sport: Corruption Structures Within The Professional Game Match Officials Limited
The standard of refereeing and the application of VAR in the Premier League is a total joke. But it's worse than that from all of this stuff you have sent through. It is nothing more than a systematic corruption being monetised by criminalised forces.
This is a standard predatory capitalism construct.
How did Mother England's refereeing end up in this state?
Roberto De Zerbi: "I don't like 80% of Premier League referees. That isn't a new opinion. I don't like them. I don't like their behaviour on the pitch. England is the only country where, when there is VAR, you are not sure that the decision is right. In England, no, and I'm not able to understand."
The Premier League has just provided us with a second consecutive weekend of extensive boiler room scams - see All In --- A Weekend's Work for details of the first of these rounds of matches.
Let's take a very brief glance at what transpired.
Jarred Gillett, the VAR official who made the incorrect and outrageous call which led to the red card for William Saliba at Bournemouth was given another Bournemouth match (albeit as Assistant VAR to a very junior VAR official).
More weirdly still, Gillett was also given the VAR position on Chelsea v Newcastle despite his peculiarly evident bias in favour of the Geordies.
The VAR calls in this event were not consistent with integrity.
Former referee Keith Hackett described Michael Oliver's VAR intervention to give West Ham a late penalty which defeated Manchester United as one of the worst decisions he had ever witnessed.
In effect, Erik ten Hag's dismissal was precipitated by this fake call.
Meanwhile, England's other top referee Anthony Taylor made a whole array of decisions tilted in favour of Liverpool at Arsenal.
He was ably supported by VAR official Michael Salisbury.
And this follows two Liverpool supporting referees mugging Arsenal last week (see above and linked article above).
Livarpool have been a PGMOL construct for several years now.
Gillett, Oliver & Taylor are allegedly elite.
When the Clown managed to elevate both Jonathan Moss and Neil Swarbrick to the PGMOL Select Group in 2010/11, he was imitating a template utilised by rogue Scottish referee Hugh Dallas who 'trained up' two referees to carry on his good work after his retirement from on-field shenanigans.
We have exposed numerous corruption templates orchestrated by Moss and Swarbrick over the years. But, in brief, integrity was not on the radar when these two match officials were in charge.
When Swarbrick retired from black whistle work in 2017/18, he was promoted to Head Of VAR at the PGMOL where he oversaw the very worst roll out of video technology in any major league.
The International Football Association Board (IFAB) rules on VAR were entirely ignored by Premier League officials with a delay in the introduction of the technology and in referees initial refusal to use the pitchside monitors while decisions were arbitrarily constructed between the referee and the VAR Official.
When Howard Webb gained control of the PGMOL, he sacked Swarbrick last season along with Lee Mason and Mike Dean.
Soon afterwards, Moss scuttled off into the sunset.
It is worth noting that none of these officials reached UEFA / FIFA level yet were deemed the elite at the PGMOL.
De Zerbi is spot on when he states that the lack of professionalism regarding the implementation of VAR is not present in other leagues.
Elsewhere, although there are certain complaints about the length of time it takes VAR to correct errors, the general view of fans is that the process eliminates distortions to the authenticity of the sport by ensuring that the right decision is made.
Only the Premier League has issues with the correct implementation of VAR - together with an apparent mockery of the fan (and football) via squiggly lines, non-perpendicular to the touchline offside visuals and an apparent refusal to treat each instance by the rules of the game.
Ostensibly, it was this non-application of the rules that led to the sacking of Mason and Dean last season, as the former mysteriously kept being selected for Brentford matches (in 2020/21 Mason was VAR for a third of the Bees' EPL games) and the latter showing a bias towards Liverpool that was as blatant as it was crooked (Dean moved out of Liverpool in order to be able to officiate Merseyside matches and, for no reason whatsoever, was granted private jet air travel courtesy of a bookmaker).
Market makers, bookmakers and professional gamblers will all inform you that by far the biggest input to match outcome is the selection of referee and VAR (particularly in corrupted leagues like the EPL).
This has always been the case although the market structure has become much more volatile since the cyclical processes of systemic and semi-systemic corruption templates have been the foundation of the Premier League.
On Match of the Day recently after Anthony Taylor had given out a record number of yellow cards in one EPL game, there was a studio discussion which ended with Gary Lineker uttering the immortal words "... well done to everyone involved in that"; and even Guardian journalist Scott Murray stated (over a ridiculous refereeing decision during the Crystal Palace vs Liverpool fix): "... the latest thing that's been made up on the spot."
There are four primary issues with the PGMOL.
Firstly, the officials are too few in number and too limited in ability. This produces spurious outcomes.
Secondly, there is momentum behind making football less of a sport and more of a spectacle. This is leading to extreme variations in the application of the rules of the sport.
Thirdly, some referees develop inappropriate alliances with entities associated with betting markets. There exist peculiar positive correlations between certain betting market participants and in-play decision making by some match officials. Money changes hands.
And, fourthly, the resultant match decisions are at best subjective yet randomised and, at worst, corrupted and arbitrary - a theatre of corrupted spectacle.
This produces ridiculous flows of diametrically opposed reading of the rules over windows - e.g. the PGMOL officials reading of last man tackles or kicking the ball away to delay a restart.
But in a sport like football, one fake, erroneous or corrupted decision often decides the outcome of the game.
It is imperative for integrity in football that all efforts are made to produce correct decisions.
Points 1, 2 & 3 above can be somewhat addressed by markedly increasing the size of the refereeing roster. Elite referees simply aren't elite.
But the subjective nature of the reading of the rules requires an entire restructuring of Stockley Park.
Instead of an 'elite' referee serving as VAR official, there should be, say, 9 officials spread around the country who are able to react to on-field calls and effectively vote for the correct decision.
With more referees and greater spread in reaching a decision, there is less incentive for organised crime to coerce match officials to behave accordingly plus a much better visual outcome for fans and, equally importantly, for the integrity of the Premier League.
We should also be allowed to hear the communications between Stockley Park and the referee - there's surely nothing to hide, is there?
The Subjective --- Arbitrary --- Corrupted --- Traded evolution must be terminated.
Because this progression also generates a repetitive question in the minds of captured match officials - how will my decision impact on the power hierarchies, the insider trading, the spectacle, the global betting markets?
IREF should do this thing and bring the PGMOL within the regulatory body (rather than bizarrely existing as a private company as is now the case).
Corruption is the elephant in the room.
In the Premier League, we detect insider trading linked to, well, insiders at a high percentage of matches.
In the Premier League, the VAR process has always been distorted.
In the Premier League, some officials would appear to have extremely close affiliations with certain teams.
In the Premier League, only the most problematical referees get a job for life after retirement.
In the Premier League, the Clown is behind attempts to get Wasserman-represented former players to train as referees. The public message is that this will improve decision making but the reality will be an enhancement in corruption.
One two three four five
Hunt the Hare and turn her down the rocky road
And all the way to Dublin, Whack fol lol le rah!
IREF must ref the refs.
