Brilliant article, reflecting almost verbatim what I said to my wife on returning from my 4-hour round trip. Probably the worst “refereeing” display I have seen in watching football for 60 years – he was inconsistent and completely lost control.
Hi Jim,
Thanks for your article and you’ve summed it up well. It was such as shame that a good match, up until the 70th minute regressed from a game of football with some notable bees performances from the excellent Damsgaard, KLP (and what more to say about Norgaards pirouette! Sublime), to irate players and fans on both sides for overly dramatised nonsense (Ollies abuse notwithstanding, for which there’s no excuse, and isn’t nonsense).
Let’s face it Jim, the Premier League is simply not as joyous as the EFL.
You can’t wish against success, but it comes at a cost. We aren’t the first fan base to disengage from the EPL. Most of us deliberately signed up to follow something unfashionable and shabby, but which never lacked for authenticity. This is all so different.
At least 100% correct. Just absolutely spot on summary.
Martinez did get booked for pushing Maupay over then dragging him up by the shirt, and it was a push, not an elbow. My confusion at that came because the commentator (I was watching on TV in France) had previously stated that Martinez had been booked for the first bout of handbags with Maupay, whereas it turned out Maupay had been booked on that occasion. I still can’t believe we didn’t get both the penalty shouts, though.
Excellent analysis from Jim. Spot on.
Absolutely agree with Jim, and for once i’am glad I wasn’t there but listening to the club commentary.
Like you I have an 8 hour round trip for home games and would have not been pleased with watching that spectacle live
No doubt the ref lost the plot but VAR wasn’t far behind, Mee being wrestled to the ground by McGinn was a stonewall penalty and they didn’t even look at it, what Ollie Watkins was playing at only he knows, if he was being abused “The whole game” why not wait until his interview on MOTD on Sunday night rather than running into the goal start pointing in the direction of the west stand and possibly starting crowd trouble and then claim it was at an individual and why not actually say in his MOTD interview what the abuse was about without going into specifics. He claims the abuse started from the kick off, he must have the hearing of the bionic man as in the first half he was 50 to 100 yards away from the alleged abuser, sad way to end the relationship between Watkins and BFC.
