Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

I think I saw a quote from Roy something like. "I told the referee what I thought after the game, but I'm not going to repeat it here". I think I can guess what he said. I hope the club complains about the Ref's performance, it won't change the result but why did Ferguson encourage his players to surround and bully the referee? For the next big decision. There are plenty of retired Ref's who have told how they were not allowed to handle certain top 6 teams after complaints. Apparently that doesn't apply to clubs like Palace, we still get them.

Either way it is fraud I've considered that there has been a big club bias ever since the Premier League existed. I have stayed it before but the refs are not FA refs, they are Premier League refs. I wouldn't be surprised if entertainment value for overseas TV audiences is honestly considered. It's not exactly out in the open how the refs work and, frankly, Webb is just an apologist/ scapegoat for a clearly rotten system. I know you probably realise how it works Maple - this is more a post for a wider consideration.

The biggest argument against this ref is around the fact that in 90 minutes of an equal number of fouls from either side, he only booked Palace indiscretions, 7 in total. How could that be it wasn’t a particular dirty game anyway, and Palace were not clogging Liverpool. So surely his agenda has to be in question. We all know it won’t be,

I know you probably realise how it works Maple - this is more a post for a wider consideration. One example Referees have discretion over the addition of extra time at the end of the soccer game to compensate for lost time due to unusual stoppages. This study assesses if referees favor big teams by shortening close games where the big team is ahead and lengthening close games where the big team is behind. The sample comprises all 380 matches in the Spanish La Liga during the 2014–2015 season. The dependent variable was the extra time the referee decides to add to the second half. The independent variables were the score difference, opponent team’s level of play, yellow cards, red cards, player substitutions, average attendance, and fouls committed. Linear regression analysis suggested that the greater the score difference between teams, the less extra time was added by the referee. However, in close games, referees tended to add more time for a higher level team when they were behind and add less time when they were ahead. Red cards and the number of fouls committed increased the extra time.

We all know it won’t be, With respect, not every 'Foul' is worthy of a booking. Away from the Liverpool game, I have heard words to the effect "There were X amount of bookings but it wasn't a dirty game". I have retorted that not every booking is a result of 'Aggressive' behaviour.
