I remember him as the Referees' Appointments Secretary of the
Suburban League in the late 1980s. A very fair man. RIP.

Really sorry to hear that. Mike was a Surrey colleague in the
1970s and I lined to him on sevral occasions in FA Cup and
Trophy games, along with Surrey and English Schools cup games.
Consistently sound on the field and a nice bloke to know off it.
RIP Mike.

Ah yes, Mike is on the left behind the Liverpool No 5. I always
thought he was the linesman involved in the controversial moment
in extra time when Kennedy opened the scoring for Liverpool
despite a linesman flagging for offside against Lee who was
lying in front of the WHU goalie and blocking his view, but I
was later told that it was the other linesman who was flagging
and I don't recognise who it is from the photo. It would be
interesting to know what VAR would make of Clive's onfield
decision now. Clive was never one to avoid controversy and the
game ended level at 1-1 after Clive awarded WHU a late penalty
for handball on the line, a decision that would presumably have
seen a red card now.
