Supporters of Everton have aired their dissatisfaction over the referee appointments which have been made for the club’s upcoming games.
On Tuesday afternoon, Phil Kirkbride was on hand to relay that Kevin Friend, Anthony Taylor, Lee Mason and Andre Marriner were the main officials for the upcoming four games over the festive period (as per Phil Kirkbride).
On many occasion so far this term Everton supporters have aired their dislike of certain referees (via Liverpool Echo), and fans were furious over the latest four.

Would there have been any refereeing appointments that Everton fans would have been happy with?No, too many poor referees
Yes, we just get bad ones

The Toffees’ most recent infamous run in with officials was in the 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur, when Andre Gomes suffered his horror injury, due to the usage of VAR (as per The Guardian).
With supporters seemingly unhappy with all four of the referee appointments, they continued to air their dissatisfaction with the men set to be in charge.

What do we think?
Such is Everton fans’ vendetta against any and every referee, there really are no appointments for those games that the Goodison Park faithful would have been happy with.
Although that probably says more about the standard of officiating in the league than it does about Everton fans.
