Female Premier Leauge Ref
Jump to: Newest in thread
Reports that the first female. Will referee the football in the Premier League which was actually known as Division 1 before they changed it's name. Good luck to her but will see these footballers swearing at her like they do the men,? Send the buggers off. Tom was taught not to swear in front of ladies. Can't wait to see her first match. What's going on here guys. It's all over the news. Should men swear at or in front of a lady ? |

If like most refs she's come through the leagues I'm sure she's heard it all before. If they wish to stop it.. Ref's have the laws to stop any abuse its up to them to enforce it |

Can she pass a corner flag without washing it,ironing it or spitting on it and wiping someone's face with it?What if the white of the goalposts doesn't match the white lines?The colour of the grass doesn't compliment her top?Perhaps the home dugout needs a valance and a dish with coloured glass beads in it.Or some doilies. |

Male/Female it doesn’t matter as long as the know the laws of the game.
That being said a ref in a box with video play back can’t get it right and consistent who the fuck can.
We need to get rid of VAR and just go back to a ref wether male or female or them makes no difference as long as they are fair and consistent. |

Apparently swearing and assault are "part of the game". Whilst rugby is still a long way ahead of football in this... Its getting much worse in rugby too.
We've had female refs for quite a while now and nobody bat's an eyelid. If they are good enough they get the gig.
I think the authorities have dropped a bollock on this one though by making it a big deal.
It really isn't a big deal. If they make it a big deal, then so will everyone else, the knuckle draggers more than ever.
Good luck to her anyway. Who'd be a ref!? |

"It’s crazy that when you conform to the norm, or you’re in a minority, the first thing people assume when you get a chance is that you’re just there to tick a box "
I would agree with you. Unfortunately I have seen this happen and very recently. A vacancy was advertised where I work, the only applicants were male.
The vacancy was readvertised and makers were told to find females as all the current roles in this team were male and they needed females to balance the role.
Qualification for the role was secondary to the sex of the applicants.
I have no issue with sex colour creed etc.
however a position should be given to the best person to fulfil it irrelevant of any other factor. |

I think it’s gonna cause issues at first because there’s a lot of rules in football and the refs decision needs to be based on logic not emotion or feelings
But I think eventually it’ll sort itself out as they become more familiar with the sport |

I suppose it’s context though in some regard.
Where I work all applications are blind, so I don’t see name, age, race, gender or anything else that could support conscious or un*onscious bias.
as a hiring manager my decision to shortlist to interview stage is based on the quality of the application and supporting statement and not those other factors. It doesn’t mean you can’t work some stuff out (ie when did they go to school to work out age, did they go to a faith school etc but it certainly makes the initial phasing a lot fairer.
In relation to your situation, again it’s context but maybe the wording of the original application was not inclusive and thus deterred women from applying in the first place. A couple of simple tweaks and a re-advert can sort that right out  |

Not crazy at all. Happens all the time and more than ever in populist visible jobs. Sad but true. |

I think there’s been a few hiring scandals just this year about racist hiring practises
The RAF was 1st saying they weren’t hiring white men
Aviva boss just came out admitting that white candidates get put to the back
It’s a strange world |

The ref concerned has already taken charge of efl and championship games as well as officiating at the womens world cup and womens fa cup final think she can handle it .i also note the first black referee since uria Rennie has been allocated some prem games . |
