Referees are used to being under pressure, particularly at the World Cup as will be the case in Russia, and that's why they will be paid substantially.A total of 36 referees and 63 assistant referees will be present, with Mateu Lahoz representing Spain at the tournament.

Brazilian outlet UOL Esporte has published the salary that the referees will earn, which is not the same for all.FIFA designates referees into different categories according to their experience and their career progression.The top referees, such as Felix Brych (Germany), Cuneyt Cakir (Turkey) and Nestor Pitana (Argentina) will be paid 57,000 euros for refereeing in Russia, with a further 2,500 euros for each game refereed.Assistants will be paid 20,000 euros plus an extra 1,600 euros per game.

on the contrary
its because they are harder to bribe and any attrmpt to do so most of them will sell their story for less than the bribe
they mainly pick them for finals or difficult games

English referees are not there because of the ongoing diplomatic war between UK and Russia (the Salisbury poisoning)
They won't want to escalate the tension, even Arsenal fans are still contemplating on going to Russia for their second leg match against Cska Moscow, am sure if there's no sanctions, the English FA would have withdraw team England from the tournament

Those who make such money did not call any God, they called on their brains and integrity.

Your Nigerian/African baboon referees are calling on God every day to pick their call while at the same time they have no brain and shamelessly take bribes left, right and centre.

It is not about God, nigga. Fck your God! Use your brain!

Na lie

Bros you are far too wrong on this!
Maybe you can as well explain to us why the England national team didn't pull out of the tournament.
For the records; That incident had nothing to do with the omission of English referees. Infact, the only world cup related sanction of the incident will be the absence of the royal family at the mundial.

time to buy whistle, even if na whistle blower, I go do one.. 25 Mill.
