He had the red in his hand in a split second.This is where ref’s need to hold off on a decision.
Laughable comment again. I think we will agree to disagree here.A good reason why people like you should never officiate football games.
People can absolutely do that.Why can people not air the idea that Lewis is way off the standard required?
You should probably read a rule book published later than 1979!He won the ball
The ignore list is wonderful. +1Laughable comment again. I think we will agree to disagree here.
Ah but it was early in the game, where the rules apparently do not applyThey certainly were physical .... that ludicrous first half tackle on Marmoush should definitely have seen one of them take an early bath ..... and the way they were solely intent on stopping corner kicks reaching our players was equally farcical, it was like watching WWE wrestling at times!
I don't get why people expect an illusion of impartiality from somebody we all know isn't. Why hide it? He's a Chelsea man, what's wrong with him not pretending otherwise?re Obi-Mikel
Seriously, it’s like having a combo of Carra and Neville summarising a City game. The other night he was “we this, we that” talking about Chelsea. He should have been told in his ear at the first ad break. The bloke is an amateur.
That was myself. I think a lot of the comments are more than fair considering how he has performed for us. He’s way off it and leaves us very vulnerable. I also posted “Rico Edghill” earlier, he’s the modern day Edghill. I was around.
Bet you booed him tooThat was myself. I think a lot of the comments are more than fair considering how he has performed for us. He’s way off it and leaves us very vulnerable. I also posted “Rico Edghill” earlier, he’s the modern day Edghill. I was around.
Ha he was getting slated in the media thread the other day for being a Rag!Jesus… a realistic appraisal

They can but, on the match thread, it was almost like people had only come on just to do that.Why can people not air the idea that Lewis is way off the standard required?
Must be a freelance. Guessing he won't be getting another BBC gig.Jesus… a realistic appraisal

I think that’s what happens in any given match thread.They can but, on the match thread, it was almost like people had only come on just to do that.
He's just a very average player. If he was on another team, we'd never even notice him.If Rico Lewis is our starting RB we ain’t winning the PL this season. I said it at the start of 2024, Rico, IMO, by far the worst player to play over 50 games for us since the takeover. would look average at RB even in the Championship. Imagine being a top left winger knowing you’re playing against Rico? Horrible player.
All the ref had to do was throw out a yellow or two for that and it would've ended.Average performance against a very physical side.
Lot of work still to do but the early signs are good.
When will more penalties be given for pulling, pushing and dragging at corners?
So you are proud on both points? SaddoThat was myself. I think a lot of the comments are more than fair considering how he has performed for us. He’s way off it and leaves us very vulnerable. I also posted “Rico Edghill” earlier, he’s the modern day Edghill. I was around.
Why would he give a yellow? Give a penalty like he should do, that would stop itAll the ref had to do was throw out a yellow or two for that and it would've ended.
Either would work. Just figured he'd try a couple yellows before going to that to get it under control. Either way it was a ridiculous amount of grappling in the box.Why would he give a yellow? Give a penalty like he should do, that would stop it
I think Shamoom's days at the BBC might well be numbered coming out with quite positive comments about our Phil and not even mentioning his loan spells!Jesus… a realistic appraisal

Fully agree budThis is where ref’s need to hold off on a decision. They both slid in, which was always going to lead to contact. Players acted on the floor but there was no harm done in the end.
It wasn’t malicious and both players could’ve played on, if allowed.
Simples.
