The fact that every time SKY go to France to televise a match and hey presto Mr Free Jolly Cummings appoint himself as Video Ref says it all.

What can we do. We can make the DW the most unpleasant place on God's earth for referees.

You can email cummings but hes as bad as them all so there is nothing you can do except stop supporting the game.

Try writing to the Chairman of the RFL Executive Chairman, Richard Lewis.
I've written to him on numerous ocassions and always got a reply - it might be passed down the line.
Writing to Cummings is a waste of time.

If somebody could compose a suitable letter for us all to send then they (he) might take some notice.
The only problem as I see it is this. The compaint would have to factually accurate and not personalised.
Don't ask me, I've got arthritis and ache if I spend too much at the computer!!!

cummings was nothing more than a second rate referee and now he is in charge of all ref`s. when we had the aussie in charge(greg mcallum?) standards rose for a while, the started to fall again when cummings took over. until he is replaced we will see the same mistakes from the same refs over and over again.

Well the fanancial scenario for wumbly would be yorks v lancs so the draw perchance would be Leeds at home to cats and stains v wire. While I am not saying results and draws are engineered coincidence usually means the appropriate draws comes out the hat. Had Wigan won the chances are it would be Lancs v Lancs with noone from yorks travelling south.
