Worst referee of all time.
How this guy is still deemed a PL standard referee is beyond me. And he struts around like he owns the place.
Mike Dean the cunt

That's the worst part about it. Anyone asking for sympathy for refs because "it's such a tough job" can fuck off, look how that little dickhead prances around despite the game changing clangers he drops every fucking week. It's getting so bad you've genuinely come to expect a howler every matchday, ref situation in England is highly embarrassing especially for the "best league in the world".
He's probably the 2nd worst of all time. 1st is hands down Mike Riley.
You can tell it he completely guessed that red card for Feghouli and didn't actually properly see the incident.
He needs to be banned - he's a blatant Spurs fan
The thing is I agree with the refs having protection, otherwise players and managers will do anything to influence them. However it has gone the other way now, they are completely immune to criticism and they know that. If they incorrectly give a yellow card that can't be challenged and this season the standard has dropped unacceptably low. Look anyone can make a mistake, the part that gets me is no accountability and they know unless they fuck up real bad nothing will happen.
Personally I feel foreign referees need to be bought in as well as video referees, these guys are living in the comfort zone and need to feel some pressure to keep their standards up. Football fans love to go on about how video refs will ruin the game, some people are so resistant to change it is harming the sport. Football is not like 30 years ago, the players are much quicker and the game is played at a much quicker tempo now. It is hard for referees to keep up.
Mike Dean issued a red card to the opposition in all 3 spuds' games and penalties to spuds in 2 of the games.
I don't think he's biased, I think he's genuine... genuinely terrible at his job that is.
The standard of reffing is terrible at the moment, very rarely does a game go by where the ref doesn't pay a part by either getting key decisions wrong or at least getting a series of decisions wrong. The corner we didn't get on the weekend was pretty inconsequential but it has to be one of the worst calls of the season.

Normally I'd agree but you know Dein will always give Spurs an advantage. Its more than just coincidence at this stage.
Should've appreciated Webb when y'all had him
I've no time for Dean but the thread title is a bit scummy.
The one for Mourinho too?
Being a scummy runt helped rednose and is helping mourinho influence refs so fuck being right.
I find Dean hilarious. His arrogance is just parody gold.
Does anyone else follow Celebrity Refs on twitter? Best account on there by a mile.
Calling Mike Dean "Kanye Producer".. smh
Poor Villa, up against 12 men today.

Can't find the picture any longer but it seems like even in the Barnsley - Leeds match he couldn't stay out of the spotlight and gave one of the teams a penalty for a handball a good yard outside the box.
