Glad you agree with me, Tom! Perhaps you should go for a more senior refs position? Looks to me as if we need a huge number of refs for the PL! I've criticised Clattenburg, but he's 100 times better than this clown!
It'll be rescinded but too many of these are happening this season. Mason had no pressure there, not even one of those 'well he's done a few iffy tackles in the game' red cards.
Clattenburg isn't perfect, but he is at PL standard. Him, Oliver, Atkinson, Dean, Taylor, Marriner and Pawson are good enough. The rest aren't.
Not the best game from the midfield today, but overall we played well. Stoke goal was pretty well worked with a nice pass and good finish from Arnautovic. But we could have done better the 5-10 minutes immediately following that. I thought Martina did fairly well.
At least we'd be guaranteed consistency. I may have had my disagreements occasionally with Tom, but he sticks to his beliefs and is always consistent!
