English soccer’s match officials body says police are investigating “abhorrent attacks” aimed at Premier League referee Michael Oliver and his family following the match between Wolverhampton and Arse

The PGMOL, the body that oversees officiating in English soccer, says it is “appalled” by the “threats and abuse” aimed at referee Michael Oliver after his controversial decision to show a red card to an Arsenal player on Saturday.

Michael Oliver was "clever" not to show Wolves' Joao Gomes a straight red card for his challenge on Arsenal's Jurrien Timber, according to Keith Hackett.
