As I read Planet Rugby today, I see that the RFU have appointed a sixth full time referee. Rob Debney joins the 'regulars' on the RFU pay-roll.
One interesting thing that I read in the article is that he has spent time as a Gloucester and District referee. Now, not wanting to 'show off' ( ;) ) that makes half of the full-time referees in England members of, or sometime members of Gloucester & District Referees' Society ( :p ). Not a bad track record.
It was also interesting to read that his first full-time appointment was in Russia!
