Ref Watch

[GaudinoMotors]

So Mike what do you fancy next week.
"Er I'll do Abu city on Tuesday from the sidelines and hope it's a close game I can influence, then I'll do my boyhood and still my, club on Thursday".

Nice work if you can get it and they're bent enough to allow it.

Reeks to high heaven.

There was something deeply distasteful about BT's coverage - 2 scousers doing commentary of a Liverpool game where a Merseyside referee was officiating.

I think Dean deserves some credit. He kept a straight face when he said.
i thought it was a back injury.

Oh only spinal thats ok then carry on.

 

[JRockBlues]

McPointyman on co-comms for the game was at pains to say there wasn't enough time for Mike Dean to have stopped play before the ball was in the back of the net. I think subsequent analysis has proven that to be false.

 

[richardtheref]

Agreed about watching the ball at all times , but we were also instructed to use the ' trailing eye' incase something may happen off the ball when there has been a heavy but fair challenge or a coming together ,this was a perfect example of this but as you say he probably thinks that he is too good for that

Last night he appeared to do neither. If he was using the "trailing eye" he might have noticed the 2 down in the box.

Can’t stand Pointy and Dean’s the me me monster, but isn’t Fletcher from Nottingham?

I thought he was scouse.

Maybe he just sounds it.

something on sky sports news about the fa looking into david elleray.dosnt say what for though

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Mike Dean waved play on.

[bluwes]

It seems the allegations against Elleray are ones of alleged racist comments back in the day

 

[laplandblue]

No comment about the goal punched in against us at Molineux a few years back.
Pre-VAR but still with a ref and assistants.

Offside too, which cost City two points and another hundred points season.

He is a smug prick. Also was the fucker who abandoned a home match when we were 2 0 up, I think v Ipswich.

Looked at Liverpool's equaliser again. Player down in 6 yard box immobile and holding his head. The PFA should be talking to the EPL and PGMOL. It's not on that Mike Dean allowed play on. The rule states if it looks like a head injury play should be stopped. Newcastle players should be talking the their PFA reps about this!

Just the last tr

In just the last three games, from what I can gather by comments on social media, they have benefitted from decisions to the tune of nine points. Imagine that over a season. A foul was ignored against Wolves just before the goal at the end. Also a penalty for a dive and a penalty waved away for Villa. Another myth up there with " Earned not bought" being " the table doesn't lie" It seems to where certain teams are concerned?

I remember that. City were going through a bad patch, I think Kare Ingebrigtsen scored. It looked like City were going to win and the game was abandoned.

The rain that day was biblical.

If it hadn’t been called off, we’d never have got to see the Rocastle goal.

Is that the one assisted by Carl Griffiths and I think Francis Lee compared it to Puskas?

Yeah, Rocastle assisted Griffiths.

 

[laplandblue]

Yeah, Rocastle assisted Griffiths.

That was a great video, thanks. I have fond memories of David Rocastle. After my dad died , his best friend from childhood took me to see a game and " Rocky" scored a goal just in front of us. My dad's school friend was the reason my dad became a blue and why I love City today.

 

[TonyM]

Yeah, Rocastle assisted Griffiths.

So sunny back then. :-)
