“I replied,” And all your advice have also been good, right? “After this, Mr. Politis began to make additional comments, at which time the Earth Manager intervened and moved me away from the situation.
Bouris has confirmed that an incident occurred after the game, but says that neither he nor polyitis were hostile.
'We weren't on his face, I made sure we stayed at our distance. We weren't threatening, and we didn't abuse him and we didn't swear, '' he said.
'We passed and I said that I had seen a lot of football and that the arbitration was shameful. Nick said something similar. I don't think I told him that 'he told us about the game'. Maybe someone else said that.
“It is possible that he has filed a formal complaint against us, but we present a against him in the tournament due to the poor arbitration standard.”
James told the Herald that he was complaining because he is fed up with the alleged abuse that the referees last.
“I am a simple type of Dapto, but I am not festhing to anyone,” James said.
'It's not about me, it's what we endure every weekend of the spectators who do not like our decisions.
'I have nothing to win or lose this. What I am saying is that, week after week, due to the position in which I am directing the referees for the entire Illawarra, I know that these incidents are not isolated to Las Vegas. ''
Daily Mail Australia has contacted the roosters to comment.
