    Agreed - he should have called it as it was and dared the authorities to investigate and charge him.....

    Yet another result for incompetence this was...all three officials had flashes of blindness where Swansea were concerned but saw any incident for Fulham as fouls and gave free kicks galore and even the most dubious of penalties which was saved.....why would a player running on goal choose to dive rather than shoot....the tackle on Ayew by the goalkeeper.....the blatant raised handball.....we could have been three down by half time as we were so slow but the second half showed how we could have had a positive result....very disappointed Swans fans leaving Craven Cottage and their flappers....by the way was this the first time that clueless kept the same team this season?

    Much more strident and direct than had been reported in the press!

    13 free kicks to Fulham. 6 to the Swans. ....... I think that Swans had 3 yellows, Fulham 0.
    Swans had 3 penalties turned down, Fulham had 1 gift wrapped one given.
    Makes you wonder if the officials had a syndicate on the go.

    Good Morning,


    Thank you for your email, your feedback has been noted.


    The EFL receives numerous queries and complaints regarding individual officials’ decisions and their overall performances. While we are not always able to comment on specific incidents, we can advise that the performances of all officials are constantly monitored by way of club and match observer reports, match videos and footage received by the referees’ coaches. Matches are analysed by the Referees' Manager, a referees’ coach and the referee, and these assessments can have an impact on future appointments.


    We do appreciate some decisions can be frustrating for supporters, however it is important to note that the match officials having a challenging role in trying to spot every single incident that occurs on the field of play, whether this be due to the proximity of the ball to players, the position of the referee, or other players obscuring views of the officials. The human element of the sport means referees do also make mistakes during games, just like players and managers do on a weekly basis. With only one chance to view every incident, and no benefit of replays, the modern referee has a sometimes difficult task.


    In all situations the decision of the referee is final although post-match Clubs do have the opportunity to mark the referee’s performance and raise any issues with the Referees’ Manager.


    We can advise that in relation to this particular fixture, the Referees’ Manager is in dialogue with the Club.


    Thank you for contacting the EFL.


    Regards,


    Jessica

    A standard, straight bat response ..... In other words, supporters are one-eyed and biased.....

    I remember that when a team-mate got sent off, the appeals panels let the ref continually change his story as his (false) claims were rebutted.

    They always defend the referee ....

    (My mate had a 6 week ban....)
