referee good idea?

Wouldn't matter who reffed your games,you'd still pay him off. 👍

Maybe they should look at what rugby does where a lot of refs officiate all over the world.

Might make them better if being stretched to perform outside of their comfort zone.

Can you name the only referee to ever me on the cover of a FIFA game?

They do the same in football, it only happens for internationals or European competitions. ... Collina at a guess

In rugby the refs do big games in other leagues from time to time. That would be good in football too.

Yes correct on the guess

Collina was a good ref, they don't use International Refs in the English Premiership Rugby, likely they couldn't afford it anyway, it's not carbon friendly, money better spent on improving home grown refs than asking refs to trek around europe constantly

I think they should mic the refs and officals up so the crowd knows what is going on and what they are asking VAR for. This will make them more accountable in my eyes.

Could benefit refs as well when players are screaming and swearing at them, players need to be accountable for their actions as well.

Ah yes they created the refs company - forgot about that - previously sure a fair few French and South African refs had done games here. Sure Wayne Barnes had done some big non international games in the Southern Hemisphere too.

Not sure how much it would cost but would be good for their development to ref in other countries.

They cant as they tried it here and the amount of swearing by players some not so nice words could be heard so nope. Good idea though if the team is having another shocker it would ad to the entertainment
