Ref Matthew Breeze proves that they're human too: check out how he busted his lawnmower!
I am a football referee and a police prosecutor.
In 2007 I will try and juggle football, work and my family.
I once learnt that the video never lies.
I once had a nightmare that my legs were paralysed.
I'm not great at getting up at 5:30am to train.
I'm great at sensing when to let the players play.
I love eating teppanyaki in Japan.
I once broke my lawnmower by putting the wrong petrol in it.
I get embarrassed when I start the game while my linesman are still checking the nets.
My best memory is proposing to my wife.
I promise I’ll never argue with a referee's assessor.
Friends say I am the most competitive person they know.
