As the chant went "you're not fit to referee" and it was spot on. Inconsistent, not up with play, erratic decisions, hopefully the F.A will look at it and bump into League 2...............til he retires in the summer!!

He did it in the 1st half too.

It seems to be happening alot. Linesman should be able to make a decision or get fired

I thought he knew exactly what he was doing from the first minute to the last, the only wonder was that he didn't give them the penalty that Benayoun should have got, it was a foul, and despite not going down, he gained no advantage, so as well as being a cheat, he's clearly a bottler too.

Thats the thing, i was adamant at the game yesterday that we was 100% a cheat.

The 6 yellow's to them kind of dampened that, but at the same time its an easy arguement that Liverpool could have had at least 2 sent off and that, by booking Liverpool players, it stops the officiating look suspicious.

I can't work out the Benayoun penalty incidnt though. I haven't seen it again, so i don't know if he begun to dive but never got hit or if he was well within his rights to go down under the challenge, however, if walton was cheating he would hav give the penalty anyway. He wasn't trying to keep that game 0-0, as the chants were circling; "Who's the scouser in the black?" everything was in favour of allowing Liverpool to take the win. So the penalty incident doesnt add up at all?

i always thought the linesmen were supposed to let the ref know about offsides, fouls etc. seems ive been wrong all these years coz nowadays they just stare at the ref till he whistles then put their fucking flag up!
 
Re: I was wrong about Peter Walton

Watched the game twice now and some of his decisions are utterly disgraceful.

Actually, one must assume he saw most incidents in the game,his decision making, competance and ability to officiate at this level should be raised by both clubs.

Amazing how there is nothing about it in the reports.

It's been going on for years and years, watch pretty much every referee this season, they will make the decision for the linesman, unless the linesman has seen something concrete that may affect the referee's decision.

Its utter fuckwittery, there's hardly any point for linesman bar offsides and the occasional off the ball incident. The referee's can't do thier primary job properly, why they feel the need to take the responsibilities of thier assistants on thier shoulders beggers belief.

Keep watching, you'll notice it every game now.

I just think he bottled it, a last minute penalty would have been just way too suspicious, he almost celebrated with the Liverpool players at the end. Smiling from ear to ear. I don't normally bother with refs, but he was a cheat.
 
Re: I was wrong about Peter Walton

Been telling you all this for a while so it shouldn't come as a shock. Virtually all the high-profile refs are bent as there is so much money at stake with the Premiership. The only question is who's pulling any particular refs' strings.

With Webb, it's Sky. With Clattenburg it's Far Eatern bookies.
 
Re: I was wrong about Peter Walton

cleavers the only reason jossie didn,t go down because he wasn,t tripped and he might have been booked if he had gone down, also by that time the city fans had the referee sussed and would have crucified him,if you want to talk about diving ask birmingham when they were at anfield,and when it comes to bottling the push on ade was so blatant it was really an unbelievable decision, walton came to city with an agenda from the 1st minute with his letting liverpool take quick free kicks and slowing city up with every possible chance, and that tackle was a leg breaker from mascherano, do you think walton did not see it, the guy was at it yesterday and was caught out by the crowd very early?
 
Re: I was wrong about Peter Walton

Okay. Time to lay our cards on the table. Does anybody seriously believe refs have an agenda against us? Is there some kind of conspiracy going on to protect the top 4 at all times?

Not being funny here. Just genuinely interested to see if anybody does believe it.






I didn't. But from what I've heard about Walton and the brief highlights I saw on Motd2, I'm beginning to think there's definitely something crooked going on.
 
Re: I was wrong about Peter Walton

remember Walton is being watched by an assessor(I am one myself)If anyone thinks Walton could give any decision without any comeback,you are mistaken.Any ref not up to scratch will be downgraded.Assistant referees are there to assist.They look to each other for help,a ref will look at the assistant if hes not sure(on the blindside)normally an assistant will give a decision if its near him,say 25 yds infield,otherwise if an assistant gives a decision when the referee is nearer,the ref loses credibility.With penalties,an assistant will only give one when the ref eyeballs him, in other words,the assistant is better placed.When I have been assistant,the ref will tell me pre match,if he gives a pen,and I think hes wrong,leave it at that.Let him take the flak.And if he doesnt give a pen,dont come in flagging for a pen and make him look like he doesnt know what hes doing.

unfortunately all refs are fit to referee,otherwise they would be taken off through not passing their fitness test(think its 2800 mts in 12 mins and the bleep test which is a killer.

Since when were linesmen given the authority to award penalties?

In my opinion....Him yesterday was bent as fuck & cheated..
 
Re: I was wrong about Peter Walton

the reason benayoun didn't get a penalty was because it wasn't one if'd he'd gone down it would have been a 2nd yellow for him and he'd have been off, thats why he stayed on his feet.
