One word, t**t! and the same goes for the west stand lino!

Paynter never a sending off, and the Blades keeper should have walked for DOGSO!

I thought the ref did ok 1st half, but quickly became one of the worst we've had all season 2nd half. The lino on the west side didn't know what off-side was either, for either team!  :thumbdown:

Agreed. I gave him a 2 on the basis that his performance for the first 75 minutes was a 3 to 4, but the last 15 hovered between 0 and 1.

I thought he was right on the YC for Long. There were covering defenders and the angle was wide enough for you to argue it wasn't a clear goalscoring opportunity. I think Paynter may have been unlucky in that the referee only saw a small part of the incident. On their penalty, I think he caved in to the crowd.

 :sick: In the second half, every decision became more and more uncertain. In the final 20 mins, the outcome of any challenge was a complete lottery. rarely have I seen such an incompetent display of refereeing.
