Disgusting.

He should be fired anyway.

He was always a crap umpire, only the aussies thought otherwise.

Remember our first test after readmission in which he stood? I think he said a world record for umpiring blunders then. Peter Kirsten was given out LBW after edging short of 2nd slip. He was shocking then and somehow still remains a "respected" umpire, depsite never really improving...

Yip he's the Telkom equivalent in cricket - if you're not on his side he'll screw you over :/
