Had the same last season in a Div One game, ended up with ten yellows. That's the most I've ever had in one game, they just kept taking the p*ss.

I thought booking, he does leap in but by the time he gets there is on the floor. Raised foot makes it worse, but the fact that he jumps in I think it looks worse than it turned out to be.

It's simple really, did he intend to hit the ball with his arm? I.e. Has the arm moved towards it when he realised he wasn't going to chest it. Seen it a few times were they mess up a chest control type action and reactively hit it with their arm. The second implied bit I doubt it would be...

Personally for a 2pm kick off I am to eat around 9:30 to 10:00, choice is always a big plate of scrabbled eggs on toast.

Only if all talk of refereeing is banned

Look at the date of this, it's 2010 before Howard Webb did the World Cup and Champions League Finals.

In fairness if he did have a proper ego he'd have stuck himself in the top ten. Surface to say that Howard Webb is head and shoulders above him now.

Yep another in agreement with ASM, not your concern.

He's just denied Newcastle a pen, looked like one live and replays showed Kolarov got no where near the ball. Wonder how Pardew will be at the end if City equalise.

I say good on him, if the article is correct and he has had consistent good performances at that level then he deserves a second chance. Having said that if his performances were as bad as suggested it is surprising he didn't get demoted further.

No one has made an accusation Brian, just suggested it is highly coincidental, which from the outside it seems to be so. Unless someone from the Northumberland FA comes on and says differently we have to believe it was all above board. Having said that, I refuse to believe that County FAs are...

Ah the old, here have this sweet new job to keep them happy one. I've no doubt a stringent review was conducted by the FA as to who would best fill that role and she came out on top. Nothing to do with her father in law, definitely nothing.

County Football Association member in dinosaur view point shocker. There far to many old miserable sods stuck in football, stuck in their ways and unwilling to accept that things have changed since they first started.

Poor lad, some people think normal laws and the way society acts don't matter as its sport. Complete oxygen thief of the highest order.

Abel Taarabt is yet another text book example of so much given to someone so young. He was probably shutting around there pre season after coming back from Milan thinking he'd walk into this team, sadly for him Harry is no mug. However like Harry said, he's still getting more than most of us...

Erm I think you might want to read page 112 of the good book, obstructing a goalkeepers view is offside as it's interfering with an opponent.

I have to say I really don't like players leaving the floor for a tackle, I'm not saying that I would disagree with the examples given above, especially if there is obviously no contact but I still feel uneasy about them. There is an element of not being in control when tackling off of terra...

Frank, he didn't re-start play the player chose to re-start himself without receiving an indication to do so therefore he was correct to order the corner to be re taken.

Sam Allardyce rarely has good things to say about any ref.
