Rennie is often maligned for a few blunders, but his numbers are actually consistent with his peers. For reasons that may appear obvious, he is singled out from his counterparts. Actual observations of many games will show that Mike Riley appears to make more mistakes than Uriah Rennie.
What has occurred is that Uriah Rennie is not recognized for much that he has actually accomplished. He was recently appointed to host a 120,000 attendance match in the Middle East, an honor not given to many.
Although he is still a pioneer, Uriah Rennie has opened the doors for others to referee in the Premiere League and continues to do a good job.
- reasons that may appear obvious? is this the massive cock ups he makes in nearly all of the matches he officiates? Crabman123 18:55, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
Eek...loads of vandalism!
[edit] Expand/tidy-up
Did this to give a stronger lead-up to the facts already presented, also some new content added which is standard for referee articles, it seems. Refsworldlee(chew-fat)(eds) 01:25, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Biographical conflict: Year first elected to Football League List
Hi. Primary source here says 1994, another equal source here says 1997. Based on first statistics filed for Uriah here (use drop-down menu to see ?-first season-?), I am going with 1997. If even more reliable quotable source says differently, please amend. Thanks. Refsworldlee(chew-fat)(eds) 13:53, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
- In actual fact, it turns out that he did get onto the Football League List in 1994 - 1997 was when he was given his first Premiership appointment, so I've changed the article to illustrate this. Refsworldlee(chew-fat)(eds) 18:27, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
