Sheffield United faces Manchester City in a Premier League match on Sunday, August 27, 2023 (8/27/23) at Bramall Lane in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England.
LONDON — A former Premier League referee has said he failed to correct a mistake while on video-review duty for a match last season to spare the on-field official “any more grief.”
Tottenham defender Cristian Romero appeared to pull Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella to the ground by his hair and Dean decided not to tell on-field referee Anthony Taylor, someone he considers a friend, to review the incident. Dean, who took charge of 553 Premier League matches from 2000-22, was solely a video review assistant last season but didn’t work for two months after the incident at Stamford Bridge.“That was a major, major error. I was so disappointed,” Dean said on the podcast, “... but if they don’t score from the corner, it is not as big an issue. But I knew full well then I would be stood down the week after. I asked to take a bit of time off because it just wasn’t for me.
Dean said in a column for British newspaper The Daily Mail after the Chelsea-Tottenham match that he did not send Taylor to the screen because he did not believe what Romero did constituted violent conduct.
