He booked Rooney Hopi g it would set tone but then let McCarthy off.. then he's started letting fouls on both sides going. Then gives us soft pen. Now he's lost control. There will be a flurry of yellows early in second half
Wow refs seriously not given Everton anything in the line of a free this half but has let lads off loads
#bentasfuck ref has #bottled the simplest red card of his career, even after the 4th official told him to #readtherules
looks like its going to have to be a broken leg for someone to get a red card. called the Everton tactics to kick everyone last week...
Why are then even discussing Firmino saying anything, he was about 5 inches from the referee the whole time.
Panel clearly hoping it's a Suarez Evra moment the way they keep repeating. Well....ref couldn't have been closer lol...unless the ref said it lol
Can't believe they're far more focused on what Firmino didn't do, ie spit or say something which the Ref had a front row seat for, rather than Holgate attacking Firmino like a Fat Sam thug
Peter Reid is being fair - Shearer is heartbroken. 'We don't know what was said'. No, exactly, we don't. It was said right in the ref's face though.
panel have nothing really to talk about as the game was so poor. You have to pity them down the road, they're gunna have to watch this sh*t week in, week out
Will speak on the game later but I’m on here to point out how awful the MOTD panel are. Seriously, Bobby was pushed over and they’re all concerned with putting a racist spin on it!! Theyve defended Holgate massively. Embarrassing ****s.
Unless an Everton player pulls out an AK47 and starts emptying the clip at our players they will not get sent off. The ref has made his job very difficult now so has two choices. He can issue yellow/red cards to calm the game down, or order a fleet of ambulances for the injured. This is were we need Grujic to come off the bench for 10 minutes, not the last 10 just for the 10 minutes before he gets sent off.
