The early days of the Premier League are absolutely insane in terms of shit/biased officiating.
In the last few seasons, there's been a slight bias towards the home team in awarding penalties, but you could definitely argue that this is fairly natural. The last five seasons have shown a home/away split of: 58/40, 58/45, 64/60, 47/45 and 54/49. So basically marginally more likely to get a penalty at home.
In 1992/93, it was 45/16. Three times as likely to get a penalty as the home team. Loads of other seasons, home teams got twice as many penalties as away teams.
