Here we have another one, in over his head. He's been bad, but it's his 3rd or 4th PL match. Give him a little bit of a break. They gave him a match between two mid-table teams who are neither going to Europe or getting relegated for a reason. No real consequences while he gets up to speed.

OutByEaster? Posted February 26, 2022 Moderator Share Posted February 26, 2022 He's booked six players in that half and looking back on it, I genuinely don't think any of the bookings were necessary. For those keeping up on it through the BBC feed, they'll think it's been an absolute war. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomC Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 I'll take the scoreline, and we've been marginally better going forward, but it was still a pretty uninspiring half from both teams. Bissouma has not impressed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adman Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 What's our foul to yellow card ratio compared to man city? I think it might tell a story of how bent the officiating is 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime example of the ref's naivity is the booking of Luiz and the Brighton bloke - just tell them to calm it down. The Mings booking is utterly craven. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed the goal, was it a good goal 2 cards from 5 fouls to be fair as Mings' and Cash's were for non-foul reasons. Douglas Luiz may have been for off the ball stuff too thinking about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those wrongly given cards could cost us. And we could still get relegated. Unlikely I know but we could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chappy Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 2 yellows bought by Cucurela for the same incident and if anything, he’d committed the foul, impressive! Ref having a shocker, lost control early on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton are diving word removed’s ref is a newb, so he’s handing out yellows like Oprah We’ve scored a great goal could go either way, especially with card happy Larry in the black.
