Just had a look and his record refereeing us seems to be 6 wins 3 draws and 1 defeat, (Leicester) last year.

Yes, because refereeing bias usually manifests itself in things as obvious as awarding the opposition 4 penalties per game whilst disallowing 5 City goals. I dare say that our record with most referees is similar, if only because we're one of the best teams in the world

Frank nothing seems to institute bias to you.

John Terry could be refereeing the game and he'd see no issue with it.

I often wonder what he does watch for him to be so out of sync with the vast majority of CIty fans. At one time I had my doubts whether he was a actually a blue but a few regular posters have vouched for him, so I think he needs our pity.
He previously posted under the name of pigeoneo, who had the reputation for being a bit of a WUM so perhaps he is still at it.

About the same as the chances of a known rag being selected to an officiate a City game against a title rival I expect. Not wishing to indulge you - as I'm content there are plenty of referees out there who aren't biased; incompetent perhaps, but not biased - but that's 3 absolute stinkers in a row. Madley, Marriner & the 'Altrincham' fan. When we get shafted on Saturday, feel free to chalk it up to random chance.... ;-)

Personally I just think football has become much quicker, more simulation and due to the number of camera angles, and 24 hour football news, pretty much every incident is scrutinised highlighting mistakes more than ever before.

I also think its almost impossible for a ref to be able to witness incidents and get them correct even in the vast majority of instances. Whether that should result in the introduction of video refs I do not know but if the game is to be less influenced by referees its probably the correct route.

Bournemouth of late have been on the end of a few bad decisions but I find it difficult to think there is a bias against them.

It is a shame we cannot revisit matches from the past and review decisions, with the latest technology, to see if there is now a huge drop in standards of refereeing.

Incompetence of refs cannot be argued but in all honesty I think its an impossible job and task.

There are worse referees out there, tbh.

Yep, we had one at the weekend Ric!!

No I have never posted under the name Pigeonho as any moderator can confirm right now. It speaks volumes about you that you would make something like that up.

As for needing help, for what exactly? Unlike some I have the courage of my own convictions and as yet no one has named a bad decision by this ref against us and like others have said is not one of the worst out there.
