I know this referee personally. He lives near Southampton. He is the classic FL referee, nothing showy, middle of the road and generally doesn't do a bad job.
Think both the ref at the Hull and Watford games will be under as much pressure as the players (so maybe if the crowd can do some "influencing" at the KC)
It's just a dog giving you a funny look for suggesting that 'not doing a bad job' is the trait of a 'classic FL referee'.
Well it could have been alot worse than Keith Stroud. Apart from Webb and Oliver I am happy about the match ref. Get a grip. It could have been someone like Attwell ffs. Agreed. When he has done City in the past and ive seen him do other teams in tv games he has been more than ok. Thats all you can expect these days. Oh come John. Things are not as bad as that yet. Thought you were one of the more stronger types on here.
To be fair though he could also award us a goal from a shot that hits the side netting..........on the outside.
