In fact, this topic as early as the beginning of the 2021 Chinese Super League, Xiaobian wrote an article, but for some reasons Xiaobian did not push this article, yesterday the Chinese Football Association released a news short article on its official website: [Referee News] The Chinese Football Association set up 9 working groups to cultivate a clean and skilled referee team! After this press release came out, it was commented by some media people:
Teacher Li Xuan's Weibo said that all the management and assignment this year have been accepted by the Football Association, first of all, we don't know whether it has been collected or not, so is it really appropriate for the professional league referee department to select referees? Is it really as good as Teacher Li Xuan said?
We go back to last year, last year was the professional league preparatory group began to take over the three-level professional league in an all-round way, because the 2020 season referees in many games to enforce the law caused controversy, so when the professional league set up a referee department, responsible for the management of China's third-level professional league, the news came out, many media including many self-media began to say professionalism, professional leagues no longer have black whistles, official whistles. Take the refereeing department of the professional league a toy!
From April 1 to 7 last year, a pre-match training course for referees of the Chinese Professional League was held in Suzhou, and in the document, we also learned for the first time about Zhou Dequan, Cui Enlei and Chen Liangli, the managers of the refereeing department (preparation) of the professional league. Among them, Zhou Dequan is the minister. Cui Enlei and Chen Liangli have been working in the referee department of the Chinese Football Association before, and if the friends buy the "Football Competition Rules" reviewed and published by the Chinese Football Association, the names of these two people often appear in the previous preface, because they are responsible for the translation of rules, the varsity team, etc. And Zhou Dequan has not served in the Football Association before, of course, this is also in line with the original professional league referee department and the football association referee department independent practice, Zhou Dequan as a former international assistant referee retired, whether there is referee supervision and referee lecturer we do not know, anyway, since 2018 we began to pay attention to the Chinese football referee circle after no impression he was selected as a referee supervisor or referee lecturer, and last year the Chinese Football Association announced the lecturer did not see his name, So when Zhou Dequan was the head of the refereeing department of the professional league, I had a question why he was?
According to reports, Zhou Dequan's appointment as the head of the professional league referee department was recommended by Liu Jun, vice chairman of the professional league, Liu Jun was formerly the general manager of Suning Club, known as "Uncle Liu Huang", once ran Suning Club, and has deep connections in Jiangsu. And Zhou Dequan is an associate professor at Nanjing Normal University, so if this is the case, the near water tower platform will get the moon first, how convincing is this arrangement itself?
We have always emphasized that professionals do professional things, so when Liu Tiejun, a referee supervisor and referee lecturer of the AFC, served as the director of the refereeing department of the Chinese Football Association, many people said that this is a professional person doing professional things, Zhou Dequan has not participated in the referee supervision and lecturer work of professional leagues for so many years, even if he has served as an assistant referee at the international level before. Think of the senior international referee Wang Xuezhi Super Review! Playing iron needs to be its own!
In addition, what kind of organization is the professional league, until now we do not understand, if it is a company, then what is the use of the previous Chinese Super League company, in addition, last year's professional league referee selection including last year's trial of the U21 league referee selection documents are the red head documents of the Chinese Super League Co., Ltd., at that time the author had a doubt, the current Chinese Football Association referees do not have professional referees, they all have their own jobs, now a company to send another unit of employees what?
If the professional league is a non-profit social group similar to the Chinese Football Association, a non-profit industry association, then according to the provisions on the establishment of mainland societies, the group that is still in the preparatory period cannot carry out specific business work, according to their own release, the professional league referee department (preparation) is in the preparatory period, then he has no right to carry out related business.
Back to what Teacher Li Xuan said about this year's professional league, there is no major controversy, especially the final stage of the championship group, to be honest, this year's championship group is not as difficult as the relegation group. As for What Teacher Li Xuan said about Manning's breakthrough and performance in the AFC Champions League and the World Preliminary Round, it actually has nothing to do with the professional league referee department.
The best performance of this year's professional league is to promote a large number of outstanding young referees, of course, partly because of the implementation of the tournament system in the Chinese Super League under the epidemic, many referees can not stay in the competition area all the time, and another reason is that last year was also the year of the National Games, and some referees also needed to participate in the law enforcement of the National Games.
Teacher Chen Yong, also from the Football Newspaper, also affirmed the performance of the professional league referee department last year, and even questioned whether the Chinese Football Association referee department was red in the eyes to grab the credit, but this is all superficial, is the professional league referee department really as good as the above two teachers said?
Let's take the review system of the League's Referee Department last year:
Last year, at the pro league pre-match training notice, we saw that the professional league had set up a committee of 17 people. Basically, they are the leaders of the current domestic refereeing industry, so at that time I still had great expectations for the review system of the professional league referee department, to be honest, when we saw the results of the previous rounds of review, the first feeling was that the professional league referee department really did something practical!
That is to say, in the first stage of the Chinese Super League, the members of the referee review team are indeed seriously deliberating, and this kind of review also has a scale reference for the referee's later law enforcement, and the more valuable review experts selected at the time are not all supervised in the competition area, which is worth affirming, but Sun Baojie, director of the referee committee of the Chinese Football Association, did not participate in the review throughout the year.
In addition, when the Hebei team and the Henan Songshan Longmen appealed, the results of the review were also made public, which can be said to be the first time this year, which we must also affirm. However, in the later stage, especially in the second stage of the Chinese Super League, the review gradually flowed into formality, and we looked at a lot of review results and found that many of the core ideas of the review results were just for the smooth end of the game.
Some people say that the PTA is studying in the Premier League, but in the English league, the management of referees does not belong to the FA, nor to the Premier League, but to an independent organization, the Professional League Tournament Officer Management Co., Ltd. (PGMOL). Founded in 2001, this institution is the top refereeing organization in English football, which is formed by the Premier League, the English Football Union and the FA, and is responsible for the training, selection and supervision of referees at all levels of professional leagues in England. In each game, PGMOL evaluates the referee's performance. What used to be a scoring panel of former referees, retired players and retired coaches is now being handed over to professional referee scoring software.
The professional league referee department belongs to the professional league, simply put, it is not independent, because the Chinese referee training still relies on the Chinese Football Association and its member associations, for the time being, the professional league referee department cannot reach the PGMOL model, because the top leagues of people are professional referees, that is, they belong to internal employees, and China belongs to the part-time, that is, the current affiliation registration relationship of referees is still the association rather than the professional league, so training, promotion, assessment, etc. are still in the operation of the football federation referee department The selection of referees to return to the FA is reasonable in itself.
Professional League Referees honestly don't have to exist!
