Zatman Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 surely with the successful appeal he should get a punishment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 The linesman will take the blame leaving Dowd free to referee us again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laivasse Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Dowd's reffing the Leeds championship game this weekend but I'm not sure if that's punishment or some kind of natural rotation through the divisions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islingtonclaret Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 They do rotate a lot, and that Leeds scum clash has the potential to get a bit tasty so it's not really pushing him out of the limelight. It does happen though - Stuart Atwell has been thrown on League 2 duty a couple of times. To get back on topic, Phil Dowd shouldn't ref a Villa game again, ever.

PieFacE Posted October 26, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted October 26, 2011 I'm pretty sure it was his first appearance at Villa Park since the Carling Cup final. Not sure on away games though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I'm pretty sure it was his first appearance at Villa Park since the Carling Cup final. Not sure on away games though.I swear his first appearance at Villa Park since the Carling Cup final was the 4-2 home defeat to Arsenal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilS Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Yeah, I think I remember him refereeing one of our games at home last season. Not sure who though, I thought it was later in the season that the Arsenal loss though, it might have been the loss at home to Wolves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Taken from a mates facebook post, Dowd's games involving Villa: An abnormaly high losing percentage for a team that doesn't lose all that much.
