[Albion] Tonight’s ref

[Husty]

Starting the thread now… is he an Amsterdam local? Diabolical. Questionable calls at every turn. Yellows for the first foul (for us). Blows the whistle without playing extra time in the first half? Wank.

 

[AlexBH]

Mitoma booked for trying to take a shot and accidentally catching the Ajax player seemed harsh. Few other strange calls as well. No consistency, just random and arbitrary.

He didn't play any extra time because there was none offered up.

 

[Eeyore]

His general refereeing was very good. The Mitoma card was a bit odd as was the non yellow card for a foul on Gilmour. The Van Hecke card was justified as he held the player en route and continued to hold as he turned.....

...but it would be no fun without the ref thread.

If you are going to start a thread for this referee you may as well do it for all of them.

Oh

Blows the whistle without playing extra time in the first half?

Fourth official indicated '0 minutes'. Not much to do with the ref.

Was puzzled when he seemed to stop play when Dunk had the ball to allow subs to happen.

Believe he stopped it as he thought their player needed treatment

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Seemed okay to me.

Unless things have changed the ref tells the 4th official how much time is to be added.

The subs thing was very odd though.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Don’t care now…

nowt is going to spoil this feeling, we beat the mighty Ajax

stuff of dreams

 

[Seagull58]

I thought he was a bit shit. Very lenient on Ajax fouls. Ridiculous booking for Mitoma and we should have had a penalty.

 

[The Wookiee]

Thought we could have had two penalties on fouls on Pedro in the first half - especially the second one - the Ajax player didn’t get the ball

50/50 coming together of shoulders. It wasn’t a clear-cut penalty.

 

[armchairclubber]

Didn't notice anything wrong with refereeing at all tonight. Credit to him keeping the game flowing hence only 45 mins first half. Maybe give the thread starter a go?

Lol yes against AEK Athens

 

[Seagull58]

When he was running through it was more like elblow in the back. He also got shoved in the back with his back to goal, would've been soft though.

 

[Rookie]

Other than the stupid yellow for JPVH didn’t really notice him which is what should happen more often

 

[zefarelly]

He wasn't great, not as bad as the AEK ref. . . .

I took an old friend, now in his 70's who was a county league ref for some years until he retired about 18 years ago, he thought he was shitehouse.

Shock - we win a game and you blame the ref.

 

[AK74]

One of the more theatrical refereeing performances I've seen at the Amex. He had several nifty moves over the course of the game.
