For me Jack Taylor was THE referee, straight talking butcher from Wolverhampton. Most remembered for handling the Germany Holland World cup Final where he awarded a penalty in the first minute. I remember a tv documentary about him about the same time where they ''miked', him up during a football game. As he ran past a player rolling about on the floor he shouted at him, Get up. we haven't got time to bury you.
