Referees/Officials 2017/18 performances

[waspish]

People like Murphy, will not only be shit at the job, but will automatically err on the side of their favoured club(s) more times than for clubs they have no attachment to.

There is no way on earth City will benefit, compared to our competitors, from any retrospective viewing, either during or after a game. By comparison, we will lose out, more times than we win & that has already been proven by our record so far on deserved retrospective action, compared to the rags etc.

There are just too many people in football, with connections to, or 'a soft spot for ' or intimidated by, the 'tradiotonal' Prem top clubs.

I bet 70% of them, including ex refs, wouldn't give that foul by Harry Kane as a red, when put on the spot, because it's Harry Kane.

Agree they should show them the incidents in black white with the number and face blanked out so they don’t know what team it is.

I'm not surprised. It doesn't do the Premier League any good from a financial perspective to have such a one-sided competition. There has to be some way of keeping it interesting for the second half of the season.

The fact that we are so far ahead just proves how good Pep and the Club are at negating their sly, underhand tactics.

Bobby Madely giving Spurs a helping hand I see.

Looked like that to me..

Not sure how Silva got booked tonight and how the idiot Mason missed a corner for Watford in the last 5 minutes or so is unbelievable. It wasn't even up for debate.*

*I was a long way away so I may be wrong...

Why did Madely not send off Sanchez for Spuds?

Silva deserved his booking

Hartson was doing coverage on bbc sports website,and although I didn’t give it much thought he did mention something about how Swansea were robbed goal offside and Sanchez only getting a yellow,..

Looked innocuous from my seat. Was it a bad tackle?

He pulled the other fella's pants down, and he hardly knows him

Had no problem with the booking, what did the pen shout look like ? Wrong end of the pitch for me.

He's right. Spurs were gifted that victory.

Too far for me too, looked a bit like a scissor, but it was the rag Mason so I think we got off lightly

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

tackle on kun looked a stonewall to me, went through the back of him. Mason always looks clueless and that he's being guided along

Evened out. About the same as our non penalty earlier from what I saw.

Not sure thats how it will appear in the refs report! I thought there was pushing and shoving from the watford player (Watson) just before it. I thought it merited a free kick rather than a booking and both players getting a talking to.
