Today's referee

[squirtyflower]

A shocking performance but nothing more. I know for a fact I will be shocking at work tomorrow but that's all it will be.

following on from your analogy

it would seem, from what you have posted above, that you are preparing to be shocking at work tomorrow

if a referee planned to be shocking in a game, then he is corrupt

Marriner reffed that match in front of the wardrobe mirror last Wednesday. He just didn't think he could get away with disallowing two cracking goals after he gave a laughable penalty!

personally i haven't been as incensed about a ref since Walton

If anyone had any doubt over refereeing integrity surely today just confirmed what a few of us have said for a few years on this forum. That wasn't bad refereeing, that was cheating. Bad refereeing occurs both ways, not just in one teams favour. At half time each team had 50% possession and we had created the most chances and were without doubt the one providing the attacking intent, yet the foul count was 13-1. No doubt Pidge, The cookie monster and SJK will have their excuses lined up and say he couldn't have been cheating because we still won but anyone who was at that game today surely has to have suspicions over the integrity of that performance.

I thought he was wank and should be hauled over the coals
We cant have clattenburg every week mate :)

he reffed the reading/utd last week and at 0-0 reading broke with 4 against 2,he then blew for a reading free kick in readings own half,it was so blanten when it was obvious to everyone to play on,but he got frighten in case reading scoered at ot.

I'm not much of a singer but I am vocal about refereeing decisions if they're obviously wrong - most games I have a bit of a rant but mariner was so appallingly bad that I nearly lost my voice today.
I also noticed that the atmosphere picked up with each of his glaringly corrupt interventions - seems that there's nothing better to get our crowd together & on song than the adversity of a bent referee.

Marriner's display was criminal but the crowd rose to the occasion in response.

Ba was all over Toure in the build up to that penalty. Should have been a free kick to us but justice was done in the end.

Agree with you. I think the ref was iffy but we can't say it all went against us today, it didn't. Just a little bit of perspective
