Ref Watch City Games - 2023/24

When will the club decide enough is enough and call Taylor out. Disgraceful performance yet again by him when officiating us.
20 fouls away from home and 2 cards only and one was for time wasting that he let go all game up to then. Brighton got 3 cards in just 6 fouls v Dippers today.
He is a cheat, we have seen it so many times with him when officiating us.
Job done by him today, foul after foul to break up any rhythm we tried to get going, it’s so blatant to anyone watching.

They should've had half their team on a yellow. He then books Jesus which means fuck all and Raya after 80 mins. He's a cheat.

He painted himself in to a corner in the first half.
I want to believe it was incompetence, but most of the let offs when it came to cards (especially in the first half) favoured Arsenal, which does have an impact on a match when they are the ones playing Mourinhoball.
We weren’t great from an attacking stand point, but we weren’t helped by the referee refusing to fairly penalise players of the team parking in their own half when they are making obvious yellow card challenges on our attackers.

I thought he gave them everything in the first half and gave us far more in the second half.
Not the worst performance by any means, but Jesus should have been carded in the third minute.

He decided before the game that he wasn't going to book anybody, he's really the weirdest ref out there.
He decided he wasn't booking Arsenal players. If we did that today, he wouldn't have been able to get his cards out quickly enough.

It worked though, no? No malicious or out of control challenges from either side. 22 men battling for a game of football and being allowed to do so.He decided before the game that he wasn't going to book anybody, he's really the weirdest ref out there.

I'll say it again, this pgmol policy of "letting play flow" even when they're are dangerous tackles flying in, is going to end up with someone getting seriously injured and taking them to court.
Not only that, some teams are playing that policy tactically. We must too.

What game did you watch??No complaints.
I don't think so, Bernie commited a blatant tactical foul in the second half that he always gets booked for but wasn't on this occasion, it's just that Arsenal commited far more fouls than us.He decided he wasn't booking Arsenal players. If we did that today, he wouldn't have been able to get his cards out quickly enough.
If he reffed it honestly from the first whistle he wouldn't need to be trying to even it up in the 2nd half.I thought he gave them everything in the first half and gave us far more in the second half.

It almost descended into a farce at one stage

If we commited more fouls than them would he have booked us ? can't tell.And you have your answer.

Unfortunately, that’s irrelevant. It doesn’t make it far. Big ‘if’. We didn’t commit more fouls, fact. We had 70% of the ball so of course less fouls.If we commited more fouls than them would he have booked us ? can't tell.
It’s not ‘evening it up’ it’s simply unfair
