I thought he favoured Arsenal. Worst refereeing performance of the season.

[Albion] Todays ref Stuart Attwell

I haven't seen decent footage to see if Kolašinac was going for the ball, or caught sight of Schelotto and took him out on purpose.
If the latter, then it's a straight red.
If the former (ie, he went for the ball), then he missed the ball and wiped out Schelotto, so it's a 2nd yellow.
Either way, it's a sending off.
Yes I know that Schelotto headed the ball onto Kolašinac, but as they went for the first ball Kolašinac missed it.
Chris will not criticise ref's when they give poor decisions against us.
That will mean that more decisions are given against us. He needs to wise up.

Shoulder to the head is a red card in rugby, let alone football. It’s completely reckless play.

Agree with all 3 of these mistakes. He needs to be booted down to league 1 at least.

A disgrace to his profession just about sums it up

He was offside for the ball he put across for Murray to score. But don't think he was offside when the free kick was put through for him to run on to. Two different incidents.

He was a bit dodgy

I think he was referring to the offside from the free kick in the first half. Definitely onside.
How about the penalty appeal in the second half?
If Attwell was so sure that it wasn't a foul (which it wasn't), shouldn't he have given Zhaka a second yellow for simulation?

Thought he was poor.
Missed a couple of handballs but he totally bottled the sending off

He was shite
The odd thing is that unjust as it was for Kolasinac to remain on the pitch, it sounded as though that eventually worked in our favour. I was only listening on the radio but prior to the incident it sounded as though we were really under the cosh. After that it seemed that we shut the game out and Arsenal actually created very little. Funny how these things work out.
I could have this wrong. I wasn't there. Happy to be corrected.

A little unfair on Stephens...

Attwell has previous this season for ignoring players dangerously flattening their opponents, so I suppose perhaps we should have expected his pathetically weak response to Kolasinac's thuggery.
