Each team supplies a qualified umpire for each game but don't take that comment to be he is on our side as he won the umpire of the year trophy for division 1 for bring the fairest and best umpire he just knows this bowler well so knows his tricks

Can't comment about anywhere else b ut in scotland there were always 2-3 guys who everyone knew chucked it but that never got called, so long as you don't make it anywhere near playing pro you'd be very unlucky not to get away with it.(Thats anyone who cuhucks it, rather than Tim specifically)
To be fair, I've been umpires by county level umpires in that time. Hope they know what they are doing ;)

As I said, I wasn't commenting on you as an individual case, just pointing out plenty of people do chuck it and get away with it as neutral umpires (or opponants) don't want the hassle.
