Was it just me or was Martin Atkinson slightly biased today? And I'm not looking at this with cpfc tinted glasses. Some of his decisions were totally outrageous.

"Slightly biased"? He was an absolute disgrace. Constantly giving the 50/50 decisions their way, ignoring all their niggling and little fouls, booking our men at the slightest opportunity, turned a blind eye to an assault on Townsend off the ball, and let them completely away with a total cleanout of Benteke when he was the last man. Disgusting.

Couldn't agree with you more. Zaha got sythed down a couple of times then ended up getting carded himself. You can understand why players like him get so p1ssed off.

Is it bias or just everything does not go for you at the bottom of the league.? I followed the Arsenal game where Sanchez handled the ball into the net for Arsenal's first and then in the last minute a Hull defender handled for a penalty so 2-0. I didn't see any need for the Palace bookings either. If they are just going to get stamped on then it would be better to introduce Cabaye and Zaha after the first 20 minutes or so.

Disgusting. Obvious now that refs have been told to ignore any fouls on Zaha....Racist? Maybe? Bias? Probably....

He had to give the obvious ones, like the Benteke one, when he was totally man handled and ended giving the defender a bloody piggy back!! (From the free kick Which townsend skyed)

A ref who wants to help Palace lose knows all he has to do is piss Zaha off a couple of times in the first quarter of an hour and he will spend the rest of the match complaining about it instead of playing football. Another psych/soft skills matter which Pardew failed to recognise and deal with and which Allardyce better had. I think taking him off today indicates he at least recognises the issue. Of course it isn't only the ref that can affect a player with temperament; but then the ref shouldn't be letting players provoke one another, either. Today Atkinson had a ten minute spell in the first half when he booked people for wearing a red and blue shirt. In the context of what Martins Indi and his colleagues were doing to him without any action from the referee, Wilf's booking was ridiculous. Edited by chateauferret (11 Feb 2017 9.32pm)
