Kevin Friend

What a piss poor excuse for a ref.
Boremuff player stamps on Ibrahimavich, he gets up and elbows him in the face.
Friend loses control, Rooney keeps him talking and he sends off Boremuff player who did nothing.
Only at Old Trafford.
What a wanker.
Are you Mike Dean in disguise.

Coming to a championship fixture near you soon.

Does it surprise you that the average age of a Premier League ref is around 40? I think that goes some way to explaining the crisis with officiating the game, at least for higher tiers of domestic football.

Quick Google...yup, our one true Friend is 45. Good on the guy for sticking with it, but the age factor combined with lack of accountability and general abysmality ruin our enjoyment of the game.

Having a particularly bad game today

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Now he turns a blind eye to Pogba nearly taking a Boremuff players head off with a shoulder, right in front of him.
This must be a betting scam.
Unbelieavable

Arter should seen a red card too after already being on a yellow!

 

[jcdenton08]

That is, without question, the single worst Premier League refereeing performance I have ever seen. No hyperbole, no exaggeration. It was almost embarrassing to watch as a neutral.

He was equally bad to both teams in the end. Zlatan should have gone, but so should arter and mings. And Man u probably should have had another penalty for handball in the second half.
Probably the worst refereeing display i've seen all season!

Bournemouth player did nothing? I thought you said he stamped on Ibrambovich!

Different Bournemouth player was sent off.

Different Bournemouth player was sent off.

Ahhh ok. Have to admit that I haven't seen it yet.

If Mings had been sent off for the stamp, then Ibrahimovic could not have elbowed him, and Surman would not have pushed the Utd centre forward and would not have been sent off. It would still have been 11 v 10, but with different personnel.

Probably still 1 - 1, also.

Mr Friend scores 1/10 because he had his whistle the right way round.

But only because the 4 th official told him over the radio mic. Still a wanker
