Absolutely appalling - Mike Dean confesses to refusing to do correct VAR call to protect his friend
Mike Dean has now admitted that when acting as the VAR official, he chose not to correct a mistake in Chelsea’s 2-2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur last season.
Cristian Romero quite clearly pulled Marc Cucurella’s hair before a Spurs corner that was turned in by Harry Kane to level the match.“I missed the stupid hair pull at Chelsea versus Tottenham which was pathetic from my point of view.“I would send Anthony to the screen. “I said to Anthony afterwards: ‘I just didn’t want to send you to the screen after what has gone on in the game.’
Surely action should be taken now by the authorities against Mike Dean, potentially charges of bringing the game into disrepute, although now he is retired, not sure if that would be possible or be any kind of real punishment. Though certainly getting him to pay back the significant cash he earned whilst not doing his job properly, should be actioned.have seen their team suffer so often when Mike Dean has been both referee and VAR official.
