Was tracking him for about 3 seasons until I had enough to buy him, described as a wonderkid... Hopefully I can hold onto him...

Swansea City v Gillingham

In his first League One fixture, on 2 November 2007, Attwell quickly marked his authority on the game between Swansea City and Gillingham with the 23rd minute sending off Swansea striker Warren Feeney[4]. Further decisions of Attwell's were seen to be debatable, including a disallowed goal, dismissed penalty appeal and a corner given as a goal kick[9], with the game culminating in a penalty to Swansea that was ultimately missed.
[edit] Sheffield United v Blackpool

Within six minutes of his first Championship game, on 26 December 2007, between Sheffield United and Blackpool, Attwell made a match-changing decision. Blackpool's Ian Evatt was adjudged to have committed a professional foul on Sheffield United's Billy Sharp, though replays show that there was no contact. Attwell sent Evatt off and awarded Sheffield United a penalty (which was saved by Blackpool keeper Paul Rachubka). Blackpool manager Simon Grayson questioned the Football League's decision to put such an inexperienced referee in charge of such a high pressure game.[10] Fansites after the match dubbed Attwell a 'buffoon'.[11]

Swansea City v Havant & Waterlooville

In the FA Cup 3rd Round tie between Swansea City and Havant & Waterlooville on 6 January 2008, Attwell was accused of not being able to control the players by Swansea manager Roberto Martínez after he showed a red card for a tackle on a Swansea player, which resulted in a mass scuffle.[12]

Reading's 'Ghost Goal'

On 20 September 2008, Attwell refereed a game between Watford and Reading at Vicarage Road and allowed a goal for Reading to stand which had actually gone four yards wide of the post and out for a corner, following the decision of his assistant Nigel Bannister.[13] The goal quickly became known as a 'ghost goal'.[3] It was ruled that the game would not be replayed as this would set a dangerous precedent for reversal of refereeing decisions. It reopened the debate for goal-line technology, though this looks like being a long way away, as FIFA have cancelled the goal line trials it had in place the beginning of the 2007-08 season.[citation needed]

East Midlands Derby

On 2 November 2008, Attwell refereed a game between Derby County and Nottingham Forest. He disallowed two legitimate Derby goals in the final few minutes, ruling the first goal out to give a penalty to Derby County[14] and ruling the second out for a push, a decision which particularly incensed Derby manager Paul Jewell, booked 8 players and issued a straight red to Forest midfielder Lewis McGugan, in a match that was not particularly dirty.[15] Derby boss Paul Jewell was especially vocal in his dismay at Attwell's performance, accusing the 25-year old official of 'losing control' of the game and 'robbing' the Rams of a victory.[16] The press furore around his display[14][17] saw Attwell called in for a meeting with Referee's Chief Keith Hackett,[18] and consequently axed from the following weeks fixture list,[19] though he was reinstated to the position of fourth official for Hull City vs Bolton Wanderers.

Days after the game Derby manager Paul Jewell said that a member of the Football Association had contacted him and told him that the second disallowed goal should have stood.[20]

Wigan vs West Ham

In the match between Wigan Athletic and West Ham on 6 March 2009, Attwell issued 2 red and 7 yellow cards, sending off Carlton Cole for 2 marginal yellow-card offences, failed to send off Lucas Neill for a dangerous tackle on Wigan's Lee Cattermole and then subsequently failed to control the players in the argument that followed Cattermole's red card for a tackle on Scott Parker. Wigan manager Steve Bruce said: “The game was ruined as a spectacle... In my opinion, Mr Attwell is not ready to step up to the plate.”[21][22]

West Bromwich Albion vs Chievo

A pre-season friendly on Saturday 1 August 2009 between West Bromwich Albion and Chievo was marred by a "shocking lack of respect" [23] by Attwell.

Following the sad death of former Albion player Sir Bobby Robson the previous day, the referee failed to recognise or respect a club message of condolence and minute's applause, infuriating club officials.[23][24]

Liverpool v Portsmouth

During the Liverpool vs Portsmouth game on 15 March 2010 Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard clashed with Portsmouth's Michael Brown in front of Stuart Atwell. Gerrard struck Brown with his fore-arm on the back of the Portsmouth player's head - as was clearly seen on TV. Gerrard somehow avoided punishment for the incident. He was immediately substituted by his manager Rafael Benitez in, seemingly, an admission of guilt by the Liverpool chief.

The incident received much attention and British tabloid newspaper, The Sun, referred to Attwell as "blunder referee" Stuart Attwell[25]. Several referees have expressed their opinion on the incident.
Manchester City vs Wigan Athletic

Attwell was once again at the centre of controversy, when on 29 March 2010, he red carded Wigan Athletic defender Gary Caldwell and turned down numerous Manchester City penalty appeals.[27]. Wigan Athletic manager Roberto Martinez criticised the official after the game, leading to an investigation by the Premier League.[28]

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Newcastle United

On the 28th August 2010, Stuart Attwell again attracted comments from the media for his handing out of 12 yellow cards in the game, seven of them to Wolverhampton Wanderers players. The Telegraph reported on its website that "this was yet another display which demonstrated he is simply out of his depth at this level". [29]. In addition to the bookings he also failed to award Wolverhampton a penalty when James Perch took away Matt Jarvis' legs. The Telegraph reported that the defender may conceivably have nicked the ball, in which case the decision should have been a corner. The report of the incident concluded "Naturally, Attwell awarded a goal-kick."

Attwell is one of the worst referees of all time. He makes Breeze look competent.

You're usually the first person to defend incompetent referees too.

Not bad SydCro. Be interesting to see if he makes his potential. Like this guy for example...

Thats insane but even with the technical stats I would be turned off by his stamina and fitness.

Well just signed him for Atletico so we'll see eventually, don't get him for 3 years until he turns 18 so we'll see then.

As for the guy you posted Funky, that's crazy. What I hate though is when a players jumping is low like his is 3 and his heading is 19

Yeah, well he's only 5'9", so he's not going to be outjumping any Centrebacks anyway. That heading would be useful for running/diving onto drilled crosses or corners.

Just played the most retarded Home match against Liverpool.

They had 65% posession and 9 shots to 1.
They were also given 2 Penalties.
None of my players scored a goal.

We won 1-0.
My keeper is a legend.
