Manchester and Cheshire's Amateur Leagues, has been there, done that and booked the defender. Now he reveals the secrets of the dark art of refereeing, the pressures affecting referees at all levels of the game and the antics of players, supporters and managers all of whom believe that they know best. He also discusses the problematic shortage of referees at grassroots level, recommends improvements and colourfully illustrates the dubious characters attracted to refereeing as a result. In his time Roy has been harangued by Sir Bobby Charlton and was once forced to dismiss ex-United manager Wilf McGuinness from the touchline for attempting to strangle a rival supporter! Little wonder then that out on the pitch, amid the maelstrom of claim and counterclaim, threat and retaliation, that the referee could be heard to yell: 'I'm not God... I'm just a referee'.

An enthusiastic rather than skilled footballer, Roy took up refereeing and for almost 30 years has endeavoured (sometimes unsuccessfully) to persuade players to comply with the Laws and spirit of the game when they engage in emotional and physical combat on the park.
