Does that mean our Owen is tactically atheist?

Monotheistic. Well, if we're taking the Greek prefixes seriously, tetrakis-tetrakis-dis-theistic.

Even the ref is t'riffic. After being given so many chances himself, oc doesn't understand the concept of "punishment" for making mistakes.

Owen's famously tea-total. I think he should start drinking.

Heavily.

Change his perspective on life. How can you go through life full of Tartrazine, E104, Sunset Yellow, Ammonium Ferric Citrate, MSG, and Potassium Permanganate? No wonder his brain doesn't work.

Get on the 'Buckie.
I'm not asking you to 'think outside the box' I just wish you'd have a rummage around in it once in a while.

Wow !!
" I have always found him pleasant and well-mannered and he wants to be as good at his job as he possibly can."
So that's the measure then. Not whether you're any cop, whether you keep making mistakes, whether you should ever have been (over)promoted in the first place ... but whether you're polite and WANT to be good.

A lot now falls into place.

Even I think this is a little harsh. I'm not sure what its got to do with Coyle, but giving him the benefit of the doubt assuming he's been asked in his press conference, he can hardly say "that Atwell is the worst ref ever, good riddance".....

except that should be covered by "he's a good lad & young & his time will come again" not "I can't understand the decision ... especially as he holds doors open for old people and always gives his seat up on the bus".

Owen should have a go at Fighting Talk on Radio 5, he'd be a natural at the defend the indefensible round.

Kind of, but I think his point without being able to say it would be "look at that Webb/Clattenberg, he's shite like Atwell, deliberately biased AND a total c*nt.... yet is not relegated"

As has already been said, he can't exactly slate him. He's been asked and has issued a conservative response.

I'd rather refs think.. "that Bolton are alright", rather than, "That Bolton are shower of cvnts.. Slagging off a fellow ref"
"I've got the ball now. It's a bit worn, but I've got it"

Good luck for the rest of the season. Losing Holden and Lee, and of course Cahill to Chelsea, seems pretty harsh.

You've spelt meter wrong.
Not as upsetting as talking about an 'amount of games'.

Omnipresent works, but omniscient would make more sense. :D (In that he is being referred to as God.)
