@sensiblepuffin @raumdeuter agree about foreign refs. We have best players and coaches from around the world, why not refs?

It's true. From the FA's website: "Anyone can become a referee with The FA granted that you are at least 14-years-old and a resident of England."

Surely people don't hate living in England enough that you couldn't tempt them with 70k pounds (Stuart Atwell, 2021) or even 48k pounds (Andy Madley, 2021)?
