One of the better Ref's.  Got pretty much everything spot on and didn't get in the way of the game as so many do.

I think Dozell got away with a second yellow but apart from that a very welcome improvement on most ref's that we get. A four from me.

Agreed, one of the better refs.
He must have been because Wolfie hasn’t had anything to say.

I agree - with the Yellow Card - and thought he also favoured them several other times

I didnt go as high as 4 though and I supect my Vote will still be easy to identify  . Yes it is I just looked. I mark low but I have my own "scale or criteria" Possibly I would change that to a "2" if there were a way

[drfchound]

Wolfie, there is an option to “remove vote” just below the poll.
You could use that then vote again........if you really want to.

Didnt know that - so I have doubled my score to 2 lol

Surprised nobody has mentioned the penalty. Some referees would have given a free kick outside the box for the initial foul, but as the fouling continued inside the box, he rightly gave the penalty (ie played advantage until the foul was in the area).
However, the Ipswich player made no attempt to play the ball - he deliberately fouled the player. In this circumstance, despite giving the penalty, the referee could also have sent off the player. 'Double Jeopardy' doesn't apply if the foul play is deliberate, and there is no genuine attempt to play the ball.
