When you look at the ranking on the left hand side for The Europa Leageu 2009/10 - he doesn't rate particularly high.

I hear that he's replaced his cousin Cillit Bang.

Jesus, he's not shy of handing out yellow cards is he?

[The Equalizer]

That's an average of nearly 4 yellow per game. I can see some players not making it to the final if we get through....  :016:

TO be fair to him, the yellows are evenly spread across both teams. He is young though which worries me, although he might be intimidated by the crowd!

Most surely. But in one team the home had 6 yellows and the away had 5. Overkill n'est-ce pas?

'Bad Andy' at the 'Craven Cottagers' blog has made an encouraging spot -

Turkish referee Cüneyt Çakır has officiated in four matches (including internationals) involving English teams with the English side triumphing on each occasion. He has only officiated in one match involving a team from Germany, which the German side lost. I've just noticed he is also two months younger than me, the bastard.

...how quick can the Hammersmith learn the Turkish National Anthem:-

Korkma, sönmez bu şafaklarda yüzen al sancak;
Sönmeden yurdumun üstünde tüten en son ocak.
O benim milletimin yıldızıdır, parlayacak;
O benimdir, o benim milletimindir ancak.

Çatma, kurban olayım çehreni ey nazlı hilâl!
Kahraman ırkıma bir gül! Ne bu şiddet bu celâl?
Sana olmaz dökülen kanlarımız sonra helâl,
Hakkıdır, Hakk'a tapan, milletimin istiklâl!

I think Gentleman Jim is quite happy he is not commenting the game, never mind trying to pronounce front bottom Cacker...

Cuneyt Çakyr (Turkey)

The ref was a (forgive my language) C*nt and Cack!

Even Platini couldnt stop us last night, but seriously how poo were the officials! If Demps was on a yellow I would have cried after him getting booked for carrying on after bein fouled by their keeper at the end, and the first 40 minutes he may as well have worn a red kit.....
