The renowned Mexican referee Fernando Guerrero decided to tell the reasons why he formally retired of the fields as he is considered one of the great figures of arbitration within the Liga MX and especially in the Aztec nation.
During an interview offered for TUDN, the whistler explained that he was no longer being considered by the high command of the Referees Commission of the Mexican Football Federation (FMF), this after stopping receiving matches to dispense justice and subsequently the retirement of their FIFA badges.
“I am leaving because it is a matter of dignity, when you are in a place where you are no longer required.”“When they don’t give you matches and explanations, I keep waiting for the answers from the people on the Commission,” Guerrero said.
“Sometimes you don’t like a person to express their points of view, but they were the ones who held the reins of Mexican arbitration. They didn’t give me games and they took away my badges… but I’m leaving for dignity,” the whistler added in his statements.
Finally, Fernando Guerrero maintained that many of the decisions currently made in the FMF Referees Commission are visceral and are not based on a logical foundation that favors football.
“I believe that it is not the correct word for manipulating allocations, they are simply decisions that they make. Sometimes I saw them as very visceral and not thought through, but there are times when they are not prepared to listen to a person talk about situations that can be improved. I have that taste in my mouth of why things cannot be said as they should be, I should have been politically correct and I wasn’t,” he said.
“Sometimes your superior doesn’t like it when you speak frankly about what needs to be corrected and I think I should have held on a little longer and found another time to make suggestions about what was happening,” the referee concluded.
