Noisy and noisy, Jack, the young referee, has been criticised by many of the biggest names in English football. Criticism is not small.

And at this time, Jack didn't talk back. Offending one Kevin Keegan has attracted so much criticism. If you say anything to these people, you will become a public enemy of English football.

Jack wouldn't be that stupid.

Although there is no direct connection between these celebrities and the refereeing world. But football is closed, and everyone can be related to each other in circles. Many of these celebrities have a good relationship with many referees, especially with many old referees. It's nothing to be scolded by them, if you really offend them all, I don't know how many people will be offended by then.

And Jack doesn't have nothing to do, how can he have time to fight with people every day. Jack is a referee. There are a lot of games in the Anglo-African Union, and although I don't dare to say that there are two games a week, it is normal to have three games in two weeks. Much busier than the Premier League.

The same goes for Jack as the referee.

Is it useful to make a fuss? Definitely useful. In particular, the bet between Jack and Charles has been well known. Later footage also proved that Jack's decision was accurate.

If Charles had really made a bet with Jack at the time, it would have been embarrassing.

And the Anglo-African Union knows about it, and they are all terrified of a madman like Jack. Although it was later proved that Jack was right, who could guarantee that his penalty would be correct during the game. Under such circumstances, it is crazy that Jack dares to make such a bet.

and Kevin Keegan, who directly topped the family, was sprayed wildly by a group of celebrities in English football. No matter how you look at Jack, he's a madman.

Maniac referee.

This is the consensus of all Anglo-African clubs. Such a mad referee is not easy to mess with. After adding fuel to the media push, some media analyzed Jack's penalty and believed that although Jack was a little harsh in the penalty for fouls, he was still very accurate in other penalties. Therefore, although there are still many people who despise young referees like Jack, they are not underestimated at the beginning of the Anglo-African Union.

When Jack first came to enforce the Anglo-African Union, any penalty decision would result in a complaint from them. There's their strategy, but more often than not, they look down on Jack as a young referee and don't trust a backdoorman like Jack. In their eyes, Jack's punishment was wrong. But now they don't have that mentality.

This made Jack's law enforcement a lot easier.

Jack's law enforcement is also getting better and better. Of course, for Jack, the biggest problem is not the penalty award, but how to make sure the game runs smoothly. How to ensure the uniformity of the scale of the game is the big question.

These are not hard things, nor are they static things. To fully grasp these things, Jack needs to keep accumulating his experience.

"Toot-"

Jack's chances in the Anglo-African League have been increasing, and he has been able to officiate in almost every league game. Soon Jack had twenty games of experience.

On March 21, 1998, the '97-'98 season was already coming to an end. Jack is once again running into last year's nemesis, Gertshead. In the Anglo-African League, there are many games and few referees, so each referee may be able to meet the same team three or four times a season. It's almost every three or four months.

But it's not the same in the Premier League. There are many referees in the Premier League, and it is normal for them to meet the same team twice in a season. Top referees, who can officiate the same big club three or four times a season. But the average ordinary referee may only meet once a season.

Just like an ordinary referee, there are fewer chances of encountering giants. After an ordinary referee encounters a big club, it takes at least seven or eight months or even a year to meet this big club again.

When he met Gateshead again, Jack's mood was calm. It's like it didn't happen a few months ago. Because Jack is serious now, Gateshead is an Anglo-African club, just an Anglo-African club.

"I didn't mean to, I just couldn't keep my feet."

The Gertshead players hurried over to explain to Jack. Jack is a very strict referee, which is the consensus in the Anglo-African Union. Therefore, the players in Gateshead hastened to explain to Jack. Because usually such actions are yellow card actions in Jack's case. Plus Jack and Gateshead still have some grudges, and if Jack gets angry and gives him a red card, it's over.

Charles on the sidelines was also very nervous. Because the game has just begun, this player is the defensive midfielder of Gateshead, and if he carries a yellow card, he will not dare to do many actions in the following games. Of course, once a red card is given, then the game will not be played at all.

"You have to be careful not to add additional moves. You really didn't mean to do what you just did, but it's still a dangerous action. This is a warning. ”

Jack didn't show a yellow card, or even a red card, as he expected, but explained it to him with a smile. The Gateshead players were stunned, but they didn't expect the young referee to laugh too.

And when did this young referee still know how to be empathetic, so he looked at Jack in a daze. However, he soon understood that Jack had not given him a yellow card.

So happily said, "I know, I'll pay attention." ”

"Go ahead."

Self-confidence, now Jack is getting more and more confident. The stiff face at the beginning of the season is not because Jack is really a black-faced judge, but because Jack is too junior and can only take this approach.

But now Jack has officiated nearly 20 games in the Anglo-African Union, and there is no need to treat the game in this way. Jack slowly began to relax his control of the game, some unintentional body collisions, not too violent body collisions, Jack also began to be very tolerant.

"He's a genius indeed."

Philip Tang finally took the time to watch Jack's game, only to find that Jack's progress was very fast in a short period of time. I was already able to have a feeling of being able to sway freely.

Of course, Jack's ability to control the game is still not as sophisticated as many of the old referees. It's just that compared to the beginning, Jack's progress is now very obvious.

Jack's biggest advantage is only one, and that is that Jack's penalty is correct. If there is a problem, it is that Jack's whistle is a little late, and there is still a problem with the grasp of fluency. However, Philip Don knows that these are not major problems, and that they can be improved as Jack gets more and more experienced.

Philip Don's primary concern was only Jack's progress. What is valued is Jack's arbitrary handling of the referee's scale, which is the most beautiful.

"Yes. It should be possible to put a burden on him. ”

Keith Hackett nodded. Growing more and more confident, as they could see in Jack's smile.

In fact, what Philip Don and Keith Hackett don't understand, Jack is not a real genius. Except for having some talents that are different from others, everything else is something that Jack has worked hard to obtain.

The other Anglo-African referees are usually busy with their own work and have no other time. But Jack is an all-professional referee, and he usually exercises every day to exercise his physical strength. The rest of the time will also go to the university campus to officiate the game and increase his experience as a referee.

Because of exercising every day, Jack's physical strength is definitely the most in the Anglo-African United referees. Originally, Jack was young, and he had a physical advantage over those old referees who were thirty or forty years old. Coupled with the daily practice of physical strength, now the physical strength is better than that of the players.

Being able to run is a huge benefit for the referee. Because the referee can follow the ball, when he is close to the ball, he can see it easily, quickly and intuitively.

"It's been a season, and they shouldn't be against it."

"If you object again, Jack Taylor's face will not look good."

…………

On 17 April 1998, Jack received a notice from the FA. Jack's appointment has been approved, and the referees committee has appointed Jack Lee as the national referee, that is, the referee of the football league. This is the ordinary group of referees at the national level in England, which means that from now on Jack is qualified to officiate in League One, League Two and League C.

Of course, this passage is not so easy. After all, Jack is only twenty-two years old, and he has only been in the industry for three years. Clattenburg, who is the same age as Jack, has been a coach for eight years. Not only did he referee in the regional league, but he also worked as a referee in the northern league. But even so, Clattenburg is still only an assistant referee in the football league and has not been qualified to be the head referee of the football league.

But the referee committee also has a headache. After all, Jack is Philip Don's favorite general, and Keith Hackett is also fond of Jack. And importantly, Jack's teacher was Jack Taylor.

When they discussed it last year, they had already denied Jack once. Jack has now been in charge of the Anglo-African Union for a season, and his performances are not outstanding, but they are also decent. If it is such a performance of an ordinary referee, of course, it is not qualified to be discussed in the referee committee. But whoever made Jack's teacher famous, they could only nod their heads. If you object to it, you will really offend Jack Taylor, the first referee in English history.

As a result, at the age of twenty-two and a half, Jack became the youngest national referee in English football. The promotion rate is already the fastest after World War II, surpassing Webb to become another rising star in English football.
