Like Powelly says completely the wrong choice for a heated derby game. He hasn't got the intelligence to manage a game like this properly.
I can see him whistling for everything and thoroughly $$$$ing everyone off. I expect a thread on here by 2pm Sunday saying whata $$$$ he was.

We were lucky....
He's already put in one pitiful inflammatory performance at Preston this season.
If this man starts with his dramatics and biased decision-making again there could be big trouble.

obviously not if a rash challenge which causes injury but rennie is the kind of ref who gives "petty" free kicks for nothing tackles... therfore not the right referee for a derby game which is all about a heated battle between 2 sides rather than a stop/start game
and also the kind of referre which can "incite" crowd problems by awful decisions.. uve obviously forgotten that easter monday game against bolton

Rennie reffed the game we beat them 3-1 (Megson's "it could have been eight"). If I remember, he reffed that game quite well.

Excellent choice.
I now take everything back I've said about the atmosphere at sundays game. There is no way the Albion will outsing the Wolves fans now. The only thing that inspires the two main stands into noise is a rubbish ref.

Tv doesn't make a difference with that kung fo knob. Southampton away, when he gave the most unbelievable penalty ever, wasn't on the box and neither was Bolton at home. Will never ever forgive him for those games...
Also remember the media that weekend harping on about Pires winning a penalty against Pompey that was dubious. No mention of Rennie's penalty decision, where Irwin must of used his invisible go go gadget leg to bring Philips down!!

Its a shame Rennie let fame go to his head. I remember seeing him refereeing what must be ten or so years ago when he was climbing up the refereeing ladder and he was really excellent and I remember alot of other people saying the same thing. He was young and athletic and commanded respect from the players. Then he started appearing in adverts etc and suddenly felt that he was the person that people were going to see at the Uriah Rennie show. A few of the games that he's reffed at Molineux in the early noughties were absolutely terrible - such that both sets of fans turned on him! Lets hope he lets the game just simmer and gets involved only when is required!

You're dead right there, was going to post something similar. Nothing like some dodgy decisions going in favour of the away side to create an atmosphere in the stands.

I also agree Chiswick....he was a good referee but like all ref's he makes mistakes.....unfortunately one or two were high profile and the press got after him. Everything he then did was magnified to such a level that whenever he made a mistake he became a figure of ridicule.
No matter what he's done, he hasn't made the kind of mistake Poll made in the World Cup....or ever appeared quite as arrogant.

To be fair it wasn't so much the press as a number of managers who had a good old whinge and got fined for it. Or not in DJ's case?
