    I Reffed for about 15 years in the Barnsley leagues and the County Senior League.
    Got the call-up for the Northern Counties East League and damaged knee ligaments in pre-season. The upside to that was watching the reds in the Prem leasgue. also served on the Committee of Barnsley RA for a few years.

    Hi Terry,

    Ok thanks, I keep taking the tablets! You Ok? Promised myself if the Reds got relegated I wasn't going again! But couldn't resist the cheap season tickets!

    I once refereed a local final at Oakwell with Harold Hackney on one line and Arthur Holland on the other. Great days. A lot of job satisfaction from refereeing

    He was on a Witness Protection scheme? Blimey! I knew referees have taken some stick over the years, but I never realised it had got as bad as that!:D
