Valid points but what I don’t understand is why the level of refereeing seeming has dipped in the last few years. I can’t remember a time when almost all referees have been under constant criticism.
It doesn’t help that they also seemingly have an internal communications issue when their Press Officer gets taken to the woodshed on air by Didi Hamann of all people for an idiotic denial of a mistake. Shows lack of reflection.
Oh I have many reform ideas for refereeing in the Bundesliga. Some but not all include things like:
- making it a full-time job
- dissolving the whole system on how refereeing works at the amateur and youth levels
- greater merit culture with quicker (or any to be real) promotion and demotion between the leagues
