Ref Watch

I felt the ref was quite inept today and it went under the radar as nothing had a direct effect on the game. Two incidents stand out for me.

- Haaland getting fouled and being booked for it. Really bizarre and I am quite surprised there wasn't much of a reaction by the players.
- I think it was Gundogan kicking a Southampton player in the calf when they were both going for the ball. The cameras on Sky captured it brilliantly as the ref had his back completely turned on the game and was looking in a completely different direction.

We definitely did the correct thing taking Stones off as Southampton were playing for a second booking for a short period and the ref was very random on his decisions.

He also penalised Jack for using his thigh and jestured that his foot was high, as you say, nothing came of it but fucking useless
 
Interesting that Darren Caan gave the handball against Brighton and, as it wasn’t a clear and obvious error, VAR didn’t overturn it. Same linesman gave Rashford offside in the Derby, and it is overturned. Same ref as today.….
Atwell is an utter ****. The two penalties he missed for Brighton, he spreads his arms out to indicate he's seen the incidents and he's certain they're not pens. He did the same at the swamp. It makes it much harder for the VAR to overturn, even though they were ridiculous decisions. Just an appalling ref.
 
Atwell should be sacked. If you or I showed that much ineptitude in our jobs then we'd get the bullet. He's fucking incompetent.
It’s not incompetence. What happened at the swamp was bent. I am sure 100 per cent. This guy should not be anywhere near football.Fans are not stupid. This is in plain sight. Webb knows it as well.
