Who was it that said Jon Moss was unfit?

Overweight you say? Wasn't the same said about Phil Dowd?

Welcome to the world of Football League referees and Brett Huxtable.

If he’s a professional referee then he’ll still be fitter than the average person, he simply has to be to do his job and pass regular fitness tests.

It’s a bit unfair to single him out just because he’s a bit stocky.

He has to pass a body fat % test too
Clearly must have passed it otherwise couldn't referee at that level

I've seen this bloke in action on the FL highlights show - first time I saw him I couldn't believe he'd ever got near this level. He makes Moss look Dyche fit.

And most on here don't referee at Football League level so the comparison is not valid

When our friend Mr Moss took the knee last night (at the Brentford game) I was fearful he'd never get up again.
