Re: kettle watch
That news has ruined my day. They must be absolutely desperate for refs to keep that idiot on the list.
|
Re: kettle watch
Could be a good bet, a red card is a guarantee!
|
Re: kettle watch
I thought he was asked to 'retire' too, how's he managed to crawl out from under his stone? He's not fit to officiate a Sunday league game - then again, when has that stopped some of the refs we get blessed with :rolleyes:

Re: kettle watch
Not just Stanley. I went to Torquay last Saturday and that ref had a shocker. He made Trevor kettle look like Pierluigi Collina.
|
Re: kettle watch
My personal worst ref is Darren Deadman.
He makes Kettle look like Jack Taylor. |
Re: kettle watch
No matter how inconsistent or myopic some League 2 ref's may be, I cannot imagine any ref having such an adverse financial impact on the fate of a particular club as Kettle had on Stanley last season.
His name deserves to rank near the top in the Stanley rogues gallery. |

Re: kettle watch
seems like Trevor hasn't many fans
Comments taken from Rate The Ref. Saturday, 17. September 2016, 10:52 Not too keen on Bolton's appointee. I think there is always a degree of trepidation and fear amongst the teams awaiting the fate of having Mr T Kettle appointed to them... It's also the paying customer who I feel sorry for.... Apart from getting both sending offs wrong Mr Kettle had a fine game NOT !!!!!!!!! :sarcasm: :red: see he's at Bristol Rovers v Port Vale today |
Re: kettle watch
seems to look to be controvertial and being the centre of attention. not popular at donny rovers either. he,s used to compare bad refs with, better or worse than kettle. must have had a more popular sibling as a kid.
|
Re: kettle watch
he,s got the cup game at stockport on saturday. guess what they,ve got history with him as well, but who hasn,t.
|
Re: kettle watch
According to the official list he's got Bolton v Grimsby (not Stockport). He caused a right row with two sendings off when Bolton played Walsall a few weeks back.

Robert Whitton joined the Kettle Club today, blowing the final whistle just as a Whitehawk player kicked a 30-yarder into the net. Whitehawk's keeper then got sent off for complaining. Fortunately for us, he's not let loose on League matches very often.

Re: kettle watch
Aren't there enough Saturday jobs as parking wardens for these muppets that they have to ruin football games?

Re: kettle watch
In fairness to this ref, he blew with the ball in the air prior to it even being kicked.
I doubt in his wildest dreams he could not have envisaged it was a goal scoring opportunity. I'd also say that whilst the goalie dived he initially looked like he'd stopped when the whistle blew. If he'd allowed it there would have been protests from the other side. |

But then some us erroneously believe football is about entertainment and scoring goals, whereas we now know it's really only about immaculate timing keeping. |
Re: kettle watch
I dunno. From the refs position that looping ball was just heading aimlessly towards a defender and attacker when he put his whistle to his mouth. I get what you are saying it's just that whilst it may have been a poor decision not to wait another couple of seconds it was still understandable that he made it.
not a ludicrous decision in my humble opinion. |
Re: kettle watch
Ludicrous in my view, it aint difficult fer any official to blow the whistle when the play is non threatening to any side.

Re: kettle watch
Nope. I've tried being a linesman and was hopeless. I tended to start thinking about what I was going to have for my tea or watching what was going on on the next pitch.....and next thing you know there were loads of people shouting at me for not flagging for something-or-other.
I'm actually amazed how good linesmen are. It's the refs who are just so inconsistent with how tolerant they are. I can forgive refs for getting decisions wrong (even the most hawk eyed ref can't see through a crowd of players) providing they let the game flow and don't do silly things. |

i know the feeling as i,ve always thought of myself as a decent referee but totally useless as a lino. can,t get into the game and some of the referees i,ve been with don,t want you to do this and that. when people slag lino,s off you don,t know what their pre match instructions from the ref are. both managers should be informed of this prior to the game so there,d be less problems on the bench. use common sense and not always every law of the game and realise you,re there for the game and not the other way round is a way forward for officials. unfortunatly some seem on an ego trip at every level of the game. |
Re: kettle watch
Too late for any benefit for Stanley but maybe Mr.Teapot has learned a lesson. On Saturday's match at Cambridge he didn't blow his whistle until Wycombe had scored a 95th minute winner.

Re: kettle watch
We have got Mr Kettle tonight for our game at Crewe I believe.

Re: kettle watch
Just noticed the Rovers have got the joy of Mr Kettle on Saturday against his favourite team Wimbledon.
|
Re: kettle watch
And guess what, Wimbledon win. There's a coincidence.:rolleyes:

Re: kettle watch
Eeeee......
Put 'Kettle' on and celebrate with a brew! :gooddog::coffeecup |
Re: kettle watch
Try and tell Tony Moanbry a watched Kettle doesn't spoil.
