The official was dismissed in 2018 after making a joke he regrets and admits 'reads shamefully'
Former Premier League referee Bobby Madley has revealed he was sacked for sending a video in which he mocked a disabled person.
Madley left his role in August 2018 and refereeing body Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) said at the time he had "decided to relocate due to a change in his personal circumstances".
However, the 34-year-old explained in a blog post on Tuesday - titled 'Time to move on' - that he had been "dismissed with immediate effect for gross misconduct on grounds of discrimination".
