WTF ? Are u sure this is legit? A ref does not get announced one month in advance usually

[freak]

I thought Ben Williams retired from refereeing earlier this year?

[Damavand]

I am not surprised in the least. Its typical of A(Arab)FC to appoint a scumbag who has a habbit of holding grudges for our crucial upcoming game.

[Abedzadeh]

According to this article in an Aussie paper, he retired around 2 months ago

Maybe the AFC offered him some serious $$ to come out of retirement and screw us over again, but this time in a WCQ?!?

I doubt this is true; the third match day isn't for another full month, and as per protocol, refs are usually announced a few days prior ..... but now all of a sudden they announce the identity of the ref, who publicly retired 2 months ago, for a match that is one month way?! Makes no sense

[Abtin]

Watch out. Camrankhan might call you out for being a racist. How dare you speak of AFC as if it's the arabs running it? Camrankhan is better than you, watch out...

Damn Abtin just got banned? Now I'm kind of proud how long I've lasted

On another note, let's just not dive this time and we can get past this. Ben Willy shouldn't be an excuse for losing points.

fuck that

This will most probably be his farewell game

[teammelli91]

Oh my God, if Carlos hears of this he will get a heart attack + stroke.

Screw his farewell match, he can officiate a local Sunday Girl Scout match in Melbourne.

Please please please, keep this man away from my soul. It has suffered enough by the ref who doesn't age.

Please keep Benjamin Button away from Team Melli.

Kaffashian! Now it's time to do your job in AFC!

[euphory]

apparently it is true.. and carlos queiroz and saket both have showed they are displeased with the decision of the afc in this regard. CQ said he doesn't know why kafashian doesnt do anything in favor of iran and knows all the problems they had with wiliams in the iraq-iran match. saket said that Taj definately will respond with an official letter regarding this matter today.

@ Kaffashian

I can just imagine Carlos yelling at him and he's just awkwardly smiling and sweating like he always does.


Seriously this has to be the biggest joke. I mean it has to be a joke.

Unless Benjamin Button wants to make peace by officiating against Uzbeks, then STILL NO!

Keep this clown away from our team!

[teammelli91]

This is unfair for both Iran and Uzbekistan.

We need a competent referee for this crucial match.
