Until the powers that be sort that out can you at least admit the standard of refereeing is pretty piss poor or are we going to have another night of you regurgitating the same shite?

It's funny only an extremely small minority fail to see how poor these incompetent fuckers are, yes it's a difficult job but at least get the basics right and be consistent.

Can you point me to a league where the belive the standard required is getting performed by the ref's?
 
He didn't at all. The player ran across him and he caught him accidentally.
I have yet to see it on TV but from where I was sat in the North Stand it looked like Cattermole was beaten by the players pace and clipped him to prevent him advancing, I stand to be corrected.

I don't watch any other league, why would I be interested, yet more bizarre dribble from you.

What was your "expert" opinion on his performance today, assuming you were there of course.

I think we have to ask ourselves why are soo many mistakes made at the top level, by refs who have been good enough to move all the way from the bottom of their profession to the top.

Is it because as soon as they reach the premier league they suddenly become poor and incompetent almost overnight, or is it because they are unfairly judged and all their good games are practically ignored by fans ( Marriner been case in point)

To me there is only one common sense logical answer to that question.

I think if all refs were replaced tomorrow by another bunch exactly the same mistakes would be made because under the current circumstances refs will always be perceived by fans as poor.

So I agree the standard is poor but I am convinced that is down to the difficulty of the job and that standard will never be raised under the current circumstances.

So that's the end of any argument mate.
 
Cattermole and Marriner have history, so when he books him after 45 seconds and lets at least 3 West Ham challenges go that were on a par or worse than Cattermole committed, then you've got to question whether Marriner is officiating the game on what is happening compared to who's made the challenge. And people wonder why his integrity is questioned. It's a matter of consistency, and he lacks it in abundance.

Its not dribble its the whole point, nobody will ever reach the standard fans want, because its impossible to do soo, once again the fact no ref does reach that standard proves that point.

How can you call the standard in this league 'pretty piss poor' when you openly admit you don't know how the standard is in any other league?

How can't I say it's pretty piss poor? Erm... because I attend our matches and see the standard of refereeing is exactly what I said, you don't need to compare any other league to see the standard is shite.

Funnily enough your marra @Voice of fair play agrees with my stance on the standard of refereeing, now can you answer my question about Marriner today? Again assuming you were there.
 
Tin hat on but Catts booking was warranted in my opinion.

Yes a lot of other fouls went unpunished but to say this wasn't a booking is blinkered imo
 
I'd be interested in your view of his performance today.

You're quick to refute claims that referees are bias or cheat. That wasn't a bad performance today, it was heavily weighted against us.

If you can provide me a motive why he would be biased I will listen to that argument.

Every single person who has cheated or been biased has a reason for it.

I cant think of one logical reason why he would be biased against us can you?

To call something piss poor, shite etc you need to be able to compare it against something and say that's the benchmark. As you quite clearly can't do that I'd say your argument isn't valid imo

I agree, it was a booking and a fuckin stupid booking.

Answer the question I've asked twice now please. You don't need to compare it against anything, the majority can see it, only you and one or two others can't.

I agree I thought marriner was poor. Now can you admit your argument isn't valid when you can't compare the standard to any other league. For all you know the standard in this league could be the best in the world
