I've never heard of him, but a quick Google search and he seems to be a referee.
Only a question of time before someone calls this chap 'James Bellend'.
Although I'm not sure exactly what he did wrong in the video clip?

Although I'm not sure exactly what he did wrong in the video clip? I seem to remember he did get called Bellend after or even during the Southampton game. Although my memory's like a sieve and I can't remember what he did, or didn't, do to deserve it

Is he the ref who stitched us up v Southampton ? Yes it was James Bell (End) who " reffed" us against Southampton. Don't expect to see him anywhere near us soon..

Is he the ref who stitched us up v Southampton ? OP says "same one who screwed us over against Southampton" so I guess he is. But my fuckin memory. I think he might be responsible for one of the six penalties we should've got but didn't.

Wasn't there one called something Dean who always had it in for us? First name that comes to mind anyway. And there's quite a few others on the tip of my tongue, but as I said, my memory lol

I’m impressed you take the time to learn their names.
I honestly have no idea who any of them are. There seems no point as they’re all the same.

Not sure who you're talking to but I've never even took one second to try learn refs names. Just Dean stuck in my mind for some reason. I get what you mean, they are all a bit samey, but I don't think they're all exactly the same cos some of them seem to have it in for us and some don't.

Except for the players we had circa 1975...for some reason those players names seem to be all permanently engraved in my memory.

I know for me when I was younger I was engrossed in all football and wanted to know everyone. I couldn’t name you more than 3 of the Leeds team we played the other night. I just don’t care 🤣

Especially with referees.. Kevin McNally was Burnley away in the FA Cup in 1980. Don't even go there.. 😎😁

But the Leeds team we played in 1974 I can remember about 5 of them. Especially Billy Bremner!! Haha fat lot of good that sly cheating free kick goal did him 😆

You mean Mike Dean, he wasn't too bad, reffed that play off game away in Cardiff. Mike Atkinson was the chief twat of shithouse referees who shafted us many a time, the 5-1 away at Newcastle, the FA cup final etc

In the latter case he mistook a pitch side vendor in a white lab coat for a Stoke player thus ruling Arsenal onside and allowing them to score.

To be fair, has he done anything wrong with those two yellows? Dunne shouldn’t have come back on the pitch without the refs permission - it is a yellow. The second one - we can’t see what actually happens but when it cuts back to him he’s clearly stood by the penalty spot and I think he has scuffed it up which is also a yellow. This reports it as that: Dunne was booked for coming back onto the pitch too early then sent off two minutes later for allegedly marking the penalty spot after West Brom were awarded a spot-kick. www.kilburntimes.co.uk/sport/23877627.qpr-boss-laments-jimmy-dunne-red-card-latest-defeat/I’m all for criticising refs when they do wrong but players need to understand the rules. Two very daft bookings without even putting a boot in on someone.

Now I'd probably just about name you a combined starting eleven from the Premier League most of who would probably be English!

Was sat in a restaurant in Pisa at the end of last month. It was less than a week after Huddersfield away.
Got speaking to the quite clearly northern English family next to us. They had all been flown out for a wedding abroad. Anyhow - the husband had to fly home early because he was a professional referee and had responsibilities in the Caraboa Cup I believe.
It was Darren Bond. The name rang a bell but no idea beyond that. Anyway, he was the referee at Huddersfield away. The chances of that happening are pretty slim like.
Championship referees are all the fucking same. They all look the same as well, I'm sure of that.
