Im sure most of you read something by SFC_Referee, either on this message board or when he wrote some articles about refereeing on the main page.
Tragically he passed away yesterday, sadly he suffered a seizure and fell and hit his head, it is devastating news for his family and i can only imagine how horrific it must be to lose a child, his father is devastated as you can imagine and has allowed me to put up the news on here, in fact he said Elijah ( For that was his real name) would have loved that as he enjoyed himself on here.
Some on here including myself knew him personally, he was just 19 years old and he had a passion for football and of course refereeing, where he had got himself up to a higher standard than many twice his age might not have reached.
He was passionate about Saints and went to most of the games both home and away and as we know he was not afraid to give his own opinion.
How cruel is this World when someone so young and with a zest for life and with everything ahead of him should have it cut so short so completely.
He was a lively character and I for one will miss bumping him into him at Saints games
Elijah RIP

I want to sincerely thank everyone in here for such kind messages. It means so much and thank you to Nick for the tribute. It’s still so hard to know her won’t be with me but hopefully I am going to keep his seat free for next season. He was o so looking forward to being back up. I want him with me for that. Thank you all again ❤️😇

Been away a week and only just seen this heart breaking news.
Nothing can be worse in life than a parent having to bury a child, especially so young and with so much of life in front of them.
I don't think I ever met you or your son, but from what he posted on here you could tell he knew his football, he knew far more than fans 3 or 4 times his age, I would have had him down as a lot older with his knowledge. He would have gone far for sure in whatever he did.
When you get to my age you've got to live for the day cos every days a bonus, you wouldn't say that aged 20.
RIp fella, a Saint now in Heaven far, far too young

I am heartbroken. Like franniesTache I know his old man well. Elijah was our friend, a sound lad who had a promising career ahead of him. He loved football and Southampton FC. Done many away trips with him including Newcastle and his three hour train quiz!
Affectionally known as Top Boy after his first trip to Fratton.
RIP Mush.
Wait for us on the other side.

How very tragic. His family must be devastated. He always came across as a decent bloke, participating in discussion without rancour, an no little knowledge to back his side up.
For any of you at a loose end this weekend there's a charity much that's been arranged in Elijah's memory at Stoneham Lane with proceeds going to the Epilepsy Society
🚨 NEXT MATCH 🚨
In memory of young referee Elijah Khaira
