Not because we won 3-0 (or perhaps it was) but he played advantage at all the right times. There was no diving,so perhaps he had a word before the game. All the bookings were correct.In fact you could see that he did not really want to book Forster Caskey at the end but had no choice. Well played ref.

Funny you should say that. We were talking about him in the bar watching the Arsenal game. General concensus was that he was excellent. Hope we get him again.

Thought that generally he was good and allowed advantage when possible but thought he was wrong with both our yellow cards. Oln one in the 2nd half it was just in front of me and the lino didnt even flag for a foul but the ref gave a yellow card.
did he miss hamers hand ball? or for those level was it not
To be honest, that's the lino's job. I we more or less in line and it did look just outside the box.
On the whole though, excellent ref today. Wildly unexpected given their usual performance s down here...

Was struck by his genuine care when a Charlton player was injured. Thought he was very good.

Reffed in the Prem this season. Can see why as different league to the regular shite we get officiating.
Having said that, he didn't have much to do.

did he miss hamers hand ball
It looked to me like it was right on the line.
I commented on the ref being good (other than being a bit picky about position of some set pieces), then he booked several players, and it felt like he only booked Lualua because he had just booked a Charlton player, and that he only booked Lingard because he had booked Lualua for a similar offence. I didn't even think Lingard's was a foul. But he did seem to try to let the game flow, looked for the advantage, allowed a degree of physicality.

Well, that useless lump wearing the Charlton number 8 shirt had a few good goes, but the referee made it quite clear he wasn't going for it, so the player had to resort to other means of displaying his hopelessness.
It was, however, notable, how little Ulloa tarted around today. We all know he's prone to the odd moment of flouncy-ness when tackled. Perhaps it's just the case that when his confidence is high, he concentrates on winning the ball and not sitting on the floor looking plaintively at the officials. Today, there was none of that. I thought he had an excellent game.

Not awoke
Hardly noticed him which is always a good sign
Almost certainly.

Part of the ball was over the line so the crowd (including myself) will always shout for it. I think, like the goaline rule, that every last millimetre of the ball has to be over the line and outside the box so def looked the correct decision and no handball as the whole ball wasn't outside the box when he handled
