Referee Paul Tierney will not take to the pitch this weekend in the Premier League as the fallout from his feud with Jurgen Klopp continues
Referee Paul Tierney has not been selected to referee a Premier League match this weekend after being at the centre of controversy in Liverpool's 4-3 win against Tottenham. The 42-year-old continued his long-standing feud with Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp, who was booked for his touchline antics in the clash.
It is not a complete weekend off for Tierney though as he is instead assigned to the roles of fourth official and Video Assistant. Following the game on Sunday, Klopp unleashed his anger at a number of incidents with particular jibes aimed at Tierney. "We have our history with Tierney," Klopp said to Sky Sports. "I really don't know what he has against us. He has said there [are] no problems but that cannot be true.
"How he looks at me, I don't understand it. In England nobody has to clarify these situations, it's really tricky and hard to understand. What he said to me when he gave me the yellow card is not OK."
PGMOL, the body responsible for Premier League referees, then released a statement in response to the accusation made by Klopp.
That statement read: "PGMOL is aware of the comments made by Jurgen Klopp after his side's fixture with Tottenham Hotspur. Match officials in the Premier League are recorded in all games via a communications system.
"Having fully reviewed the audio of referee Paul Tierney from today's fixture, we can confirm he acted in a professional manner throughout, including when issuing the caution to the Liverpool manager. So, therefore, we strongly refute any suggestion that Tierney's actions were improper."
