Referees' Performances | 2025/26

How the fuck could he book young Nico for taking maybe 10 seconds over a throw in when their Rory Delap wannabe spent fucking ages on his throw ins - selecting a ball, drying it, tryna steal yards, getting sent back, tryna steal yards again and finally throwing it after about 30 seconds had passed.
After Nico’s yellow card I timed their next long throw set up and it took over 40 seconds

Utter nonsense.

Can’t believe City gave them permission to use a towel.
 
Just to say I thought he was okay today. Shoot me!
Seriously..he was fucking crap as per.
He booked Nico O for taking too long to take a throw in yet allowed their player as much time as he liked..booked Nunes for having the ball kicked at him as he's retreating from the free kick.
Let them get away with loads of fouls ..he's a grade A ****
 
Expected a dire performance and wasn’t disappointed. Utter garbage and shouldn’t be anywhere near a PL game. Probably needs a season at U18 level to get him up to speed with the laws of the game. Often wonder if refs have a different law book for our games as they are consistently reffed differently.

All refs will make some debatable calls in each match they referee.

He could have given them more fouls when they lumped balls up to their strikers and there were battles for the ball.

I’ll leave it there as I don’t want to rile people.

You’re right. He was shit.

He wasn't as bad as that twat on Wednesday though..enjoy your evening
 
In the (good) old days, a player had to retreat 10 yards after free kick. When it became metric and teams played short free kicks it got basically ignored.
Until today.

@Alan Harper's Tash step up to the podium please.
Tell me when was the last time a booking was given out for the shite we saw today.

I don’t know. Sorry. My dossier is much thinner than others!
 
Refs may not be perfect but they wouldn't even be mentioned if we were scoring a lot more goals.
 
What about the foul on Bobb,VAR give it a cursory look,then of course the handball that was quickly waved through by VAR ..
The handball wasn't called out by Sly so it was quickly glossed over by VAR.

Please don't tell me Sly, the PL and the PiGMOL aren't colluding to try and influence outcomes.

These are the sorts of things that we should ask for answers about. Make them justify their decisions, or try to. There is no explanation other than bias.

They aren’t accountable and this is were part of the problem lies,even the simple things like O’Reilly getting booked for taking too long over a throw in when Brentford continually spent twice if not three times as long at throw ins..
