Mike Dean Is Pissed Off About Being Confused With Mike Dean
The Dean Wars
Well, if you were a super-star hip-hop producer with albums such as The Life of Pablo on your CV, wouldn’t you be a bit disgruntled about being mistaken for the hapless Premier League referee?
You definitely would.
Mike Dean, Kanye West producer and beatmaking extraordinaire, finally lost his shit on Tuesday after one too many tweets from football fans angry about referee Mike Dean’s performance during West Ham’s clash with Manchester United.
Apparently, music’s Mike Dean is completely different to football’s Mike Dean, something he was at pains to point out.
I AM MOT A SOCCER REFF U LIMEY FUCK. DO YOUR RESEARCH. https://t.co/P2lSYXKBLU

Plus points for use of the word ‘limey’ – what is this, a 1950s black and white war film? – although minus points for misspelling ‘not’. You’re better than that, Fake Mike Dean (because football’s Mike Dean is obviously the REAL Mike Dean, right?).
Obviously, Fake Mike Dean’s fury went down well with Twitter’s football contingent…
@therealmikedean @FA ????????????
Don’t get your knickers in a twist just because a referee is more famous than you. ????— The Riverman (@TheRivermanRuns) January 3, 2017
@therealmikedean @TheRivermanRuns @FA it’s football you fucking can’t, now get ready for the Spurs-Villa game

@therealmikedean @TheRivermanRuns @FA Can’t believe you gave that red card today

Luckily, Fake Mike Dean has taken the confusion in his stride and is now in on the joke…we think.

Can’t imagine the FA or the Referees’ Association will look too kindly on that last tweet, Fake Mike Dean.
Just to recap…
Real Mike Dean
Fake Mike Dean
