Ref Watch

Can we have him every week? Thought he was spot on tonight. Do we get that penalty in the league? Not in a million years. Liked the way he warned players on the verge of a yellow card as well. Quite clearly saying No More.

I’m sure he’d be as shit as every other ref whose ever lived and a well known United diehard as soon as we lost a game and he gave a 50/50 decision to the other team. Infact my mates girlfriends dad went to school with him and he comes from a long line of United season ticket holders. Probably.

Only played 24 seconds of added on time over both halves. Had a shocker. Rico Lewis probably not best pleased with him either with those two perfectly good tackles that he gave as fouls.

Apart from Injury time in both halves, had City over 5.5 goals and him on the case of both Cancelo & Lewis (was he related to the Copenhagen left wide player?) he had a very good game.
 
Excellent ref last night, barely noticed him.

No injury time added but that was an act of mercy tbh.

His positioning was pretty bad at times. Kept getting in the way of the ball as we tried to pass it across their box and out to the left wing. It meant we had to look to play inside and gave their defenders chance to get into position.

He also gave one or two poor decisions, but overall pretty decent and better than most PL ref's which isn't that difficult.

Means City need to score more than 5 goals or at least 6. Suppose UK bookies could show it as 6+ but they don't.

Just keeping it simple rather than the Asian markets where 5.5,6.0 type bets are available.... you'll have to Google that one.

Also less misleading than bookies like Hills who have markets like... Player to score over 1 goal. They know over 1.5 or even 2+ would be less confusing but deliberately use that wording to con recreational punters into thinking just one goal is a winner.

To achieve what? For you to win your bet? What bet would that be?

Sorry, mate, I’m not taking the piss. I don’t gamble so I don’t know what you mean.
 
There seems to be a lot more leniency this season, or should I say much less inclination to give soft fouls (United's penalty an exception). This is a welcome change and will benefit us a lot.

CL games were already like this, and it's good to see the PL following their lead. This has resulted in fewer interruptions in play, as players like United's Fernandez, with their tendency to claim a foul at the slightest touch, are having their protestations overlooked.

Thought the ref was good today, but as you say the leniency will give license to kick fuck out of us.
