Well played Steve Martin.
An early penalty, a double yellow send off, an accusation of a head butt and plenty more besides.
I thought he had a good game, despite the penalty and sending off being against 'my' team - both 100% correct I thought.
My only real gripe is with the instructions they clearly receive re what's called 'game management' or time wasting as most call it!
1st half Middlesbrough and 2nd half QPR. 1st half 1 minute added and although 2nd half 10 minutes added, that was for 4 injuries and 6 subs.
Both GKs regularly took 30 seconds plus with GKS and Boro keeper took 22 seconds with one kick from his hands!
It really is a bit pointless, pointing at your watch and verbally warning the players if you then add no time on for it.
Rant over, can't be unhappy after that performance (referee and QPR!)
