WE THE UNDERSIGNED ARE OPPOSED TO NIGEL OWENS ( REFEREE) BEING THE MATCH OFFICIAL AT GAMES PLAYED BETWEEN THE SCARLETS AND THE OSPREYS . THE REASON FOR THIS IS THAT IN PREVIOUS MATCHES BETWEEN THE TWO TEAMS, NIGEL OWENS HAS CONSISTENTLY BEEN VERY OBVIOUSLY BIASED TOWARDS THE OSPREYS TEAM AND HIS ACTIONS ( OR LACK OF ACTIONS ) ALONG WITH THE LINESMAN ..NIGEL WHITEHOUSE HAVE COST THE SCARLETS THE MATCHES. THIS PETITION IS NOT DESIGNED TO BE A SLUR ON EITHER OFFICIAL ...BUT RATHER TO EASE THEIR CONSCIENCES ..AS BOTH HAVE PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL CONNECTIONS WITH THE OSPREYS REGION A COPY OF THIS PETITION WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE WRU ,IRB, BOTH REGIONS INVOLVED AND ANY OTHER PARTY THAT LEGITIMATELY HAS INTEREST.
