Fans are supposed to be partisan. Do we want our refs behaving like that?

Least he's got some humour although the police brigade on here will no doubt report him

Yes. I accept refs are only human but when they start reacting to the crowd, I have reason to doubt their judgement.

Michael Jackson impersonation?
I'd love to know how this isn't a red card.
That is the clearest red I have seen for some time (the Watford thug on Knocky) how that complete c**t can award just yellow defies belief, to make that complete f**k up of a decision at Riverside and then to not punish after another of our players is on the receiving end of that assault confirms our belief that the Shyster is biased against our club and should not be allowed to f**k up any more of our matches, I say f**k up as that c**t does not referee our games, just f**ks them up!!

Isn't it clear that the gesture was saying "I am a dick". No problem anyone agreeing with that surely.
His foot is vertical to the ground how that is not leading with studs is beyond me?

Interestingly looking at the time we scored less than a minute after that

He doesn't hate us. He's just a bad referee who creates controversy. Most good refs try to blend in, be anonymous and keep the game flowing. The Stephens red card just optimised his desire for drama in matches he refs. He goes too often on feeling and context rather than approaching the game with a level head if you ask me. He talks to players like he above them. Like he knows more. Like it's HIS game.
In any case, if we managed to GOAD Mike Dean into actually grabbing his WILLY in retaliation to calling him a wanker and he gets some kind of punishment, that would be some marvelous scenes right there..

Forgive me but surely McGleish always did that? I remember him delibratly walking down to the away end for his warm up at Layer Road some years ago, and doing his stretching exercises in front of the outraged. I was seething . Not sure that the result was a demoltion of the away end and mass looting, however - just more of the 'S M is a W' chanting
Frankly, if the POTUS can insult people on twitter then it seems fair game for a baited referee to goad supporters. All part of modern life. Extremely unprofessional, but sadly increasingly part of the norm.
When I was training to be a referee (a very long time ago), by a great chap called Dennis Constable (late of the Green Jacket), I was told that a referee's best games are when nobody notices you.
The egotistic maniac that is Mike Dean makes sure that everybody notices him, in every bloody game. And never for the right reasons.
Time for him to hang up his whistle and end his days watching all the highlight reels of him being the star of the show.
