The English Premier League, as well as only using 13 referees for the vast majority of games and allowing the maximum possible period for underground betting activities, also selects these same referees as 4th Official meaning the primary level of PGMOL Select Group (sic) operators get two matches per weekend.
Take that tubby trickster of tutelage, Jon Moss.
This referee is not deemed good enough to officiate at FIFA and UEFA matches and yet has been referee at 4 televised EPL games this season and 4th Official at a further two televised events.
His officiating, at the very least, can be regarded as bizarre - failure to send off Tim Howard on three separate occasions in Everton v Chelsea, aiding and abetting Mark Clattenburg giving Arsenal two goals preceded by fouls and denying Man City a penalty at the Emirates, an early sending off in Swansea v Southampton and a match-changing sending off in Arsenal v Palace, plus gifting Stoke a fake equaliser versus Hull...
And in a strange selection, Moss is 4th Official tomorrow at Liverpool v West Brom just 6 days after he refereed West Brom v Burnley (he is also 4th Official for Chelsea v Arsenal, his third Gunners' appointment of the season).
Every single Moss event has been accompanied by suspicious betting patterns that positively correlated with decisions made in the match.
And being a close accomplice of professional gambler and insider trader John Colquhoun, you would think that these structures might have been acted upon by the EPL
Good job that these hyperrealities don't equate with matchfixing.
Oh, hang on...
