Referees to 14 November

It's mainly international matches and referees that attract our attention this week, most notably a match in Montevideo on Sunday which has further ramifications.

The attention will be on what happens in Europe but the match in Montevideo will go as long way to deciding who will be the last to qualify for New Zealand in 2011.
