I know that on this forum we are enjoined to rise above mere considerations of geographical propinquity, but not everyone is capable of elevating their thinking to such exalted heights, and some eyebrows may be raised at the appointment of a referee from Pistoia to handle a game involving Fiorentina, though given the customary state of relations between different Tuscan communities, it would not be totally surprising if it were the Florentines who were the less happy. In any case the balance is redressed by the appointment of a VAR from Bergamo.
