Quote ="Cruncher"It there is a succession of errors in a department and nothing is done to put them right, ultimately the head of department must pay.
My personal view is that Stuart Cummings was one of the worst referees we've ever had. How he ended up being in charge passes any understanding, but since then he appears to have overseen an even bigger decline in standards and consistency, and to rub salt into the wound, he also appears to be one of these guys who just laughs off criticism.
If there was anyone in the real world who ought to be heading for the same fate as Harrigan and Raper, it's Cummings, but then this isn't the real world - it's British Rugby league.'"
"Bang-on" with that post Cruncher! Just about sums Cummings up. His total lack of "action" with regards to totally inept performances from his officials "on a regular basis", in my opinion is having a drastic effect on the standard of our game and if this isnt addressed sooner rather than later, its also going to start having an affect on attendance figures. (Have lost count on how many times i`ve left a game feeling "cheated", because the man in the middle is of the opinion that the crowd has handed over their hard earned money simply to watch "Him" and not the players)!
