Premier League Elite One referee Bobby Madley confirmed for the Cardiff City-Reading clash this Sunday.

He is the brother of Andy Madley, an Elite Two referee who was in charge of Cardiff's 3-1 defeat at Derby County eight days ago.

Madley, turned down a stone-wall penalty when Brad Johnson handled in the area with the Bluebirds 1-0 up at Pride Park Stadium via Callum Paterson.

He's a decent Ref to be fair. Just hope there's no controversial decisions on Sunday.

Done some research.

He hasn't reffed us for a while.

Games I found he did were:

City 2 Coventry 2 2012
Birmingham 0 City 1 - promotion year
Hull 1 City 1 - Premier League season
City 1 Wigan 0 - 2014
City 0 Wolves 1 - 2015 (sent off Whitttingham)

He's the chump who gave that "goal" that never was in a Watford game I think it was a few years ago. :o :o

Obviously will be under instructions to give a goal to Fulham every time the ball goes anywhere near the posts.

This really needs to be taken out of referees hands as I don't trust them one bit.

Mind you they could still disallow perfect goals.

Pretty sure he did as at Brum in 2015 when we lost 1-0 to a penalty, he was a late replacement for somebody.

Was never a penalty either.

Wasn't that when Connolly wore one in the face and it was given for handball?
