I liked that old chestnut: “The referee’s an anchor”. With everyone adopting an Eastenders accent. Back in the day, to the tune of Bread of Heaven, this was dealt with by: “Referee, referee, your old lady is a whore. Your old lady, is a whore”.

I thought the singing started well and loud, then a quite tension took hold in watching the chess match on the pitch. Interspersed with hatred towards Friend and his linesmen.
