Rejected petition Remove Michael Dean as an official professional football referee in the EPL.

For catastrophic decisions in a role which requires unbiased judgement, which could potentially change the result of a Premier League match day fixture.

More details

Sending off Gabriel for Arsenal in the 2015/2016 season against Chelsea when the player in question was not at fault.
Also in the same season he was seen to be celebrating a goal for Tottenham against Aston Villa.
Sending off Nathan Redmond in the Southampton FC vs Tottenham Hotspur FC match day fixture, on the 28/12/2016 for a questionable reason. Also in the same game Michael Dean seemed to show bias towards Tottenham throughout the game.
So far in the 2016/2017 Season he has officiated 3 games with Tottenham named on the fixture and in all 3 games has issued a red card to the opposition and awarded 2 penalties.
