Premier League back Bolton blunder ref Styles

Premier League bosses are sticking with blunder ref Rob Styles.

The Sun says far from being demoted from the Premier League, the Hampshire official has been put in charge of Tottenham v Hull on Sunday.

Styles got another big call wrong on Saturday when he gave a penalty for Jlloyd Samuel's fair tackle on Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo.

Bolton fans' spokesman David Blackburn said: "I can't believe he's been given another Premier League game after that - it doesn't make any sense.

"All I can say to Spurs and Hull fans is good luck because you'll need it with that bloke in charge.

"Sooner or later he's going to cost someone their job.''
