OK, he told me that they have a 'discussion' pre match but 99% of the time the ref makes the decision. So I stand corrected.

No he didn't do Palace, but he's done the Amex and done us at away games too, including League 1... as much as I would like to say, you understand I can't.

Ok well I've asked my mate anyway, awaiting a reply, the rules and making a general understanding on the day can sometimes be completely different.

I'll ask my mate (who has been 4th official at the Amex before)... you could be right.

It was definitely a case of damage limitation control from the 4th official. And to the poster that said he thinks it's the refs decision, no it isn't, it is the 4th mans decision. It is the decision of the ref to play longer or not.
