Well, if we thought Tuesdays handball was a stonewaller, todays three were more than that, dreadful referee!

Poor, can just about forgive the handballs as they were all very quick - apart from the MK handball just before Butler got booked.

Played on when we had no advantage, but blew for a foul when Tyson was through.

Crap for both teams.

I thought he started off OK but completely lost the plot after his failure to play advantage. He doesn't seem to allow any contact at all so was constantly whistling for the most insignificant of challenges.

He and Stevie Wonder (the chap with the flag on the West Stand side) missed a clear handball by Grigg before the foul by Butler on the edge of the box. Then his delayed booking of Butler suggested that the MK players had persuaded him to produce the card. It made him look weak, which is what he was.

Grigg (who dives more than Tom Daley) should have been in the book early on for his antics. MK are a snide outfit, in the image of their manager, and a stronger referee would have dealt with them more firmly.
