Rich Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Atkinson is probably the worst referee going, imo. Including Webb. Every single time that he has been our ref, he has been absolutely atrocious, to the extent that I honestly think he should be reviewed in terms of his bias. He's an attention seeking arse hole. Having said that, although he massively influenced the game, he wasn't the reason we lost tonight. not so sure about. that was a pen for the foul on shola, would've put us 2 up. biggest decision in the game and he got it wrong, good game apart from that.

basjen Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Fook mi he was s*** today. Don't wanna blame the ref for the loss, but just one example: when Tiote tackle, he gives an advantage which they squander, THEN pull it back. I. Raged. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Without fail, if there was a decision to ever conceivably go in any direction, it always went in Everton's. Our players had to be more or less throttled by the opposition to get anything. I saw Cisse stretch for a ball and one of their players stumbles into Cisse's leg and falls over and they win a free kick. The bloke is a fucking bell end and should be sacked. Incompetent prick.

Stifler Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Wasn't the reason we lost? We could have easily had a penalty at 1-0, 2 minutes later he gives Everton a free kick that should never have been a free kick if the challenge on Shola wasn't a penalty, Everton scored from it. Every time we got forward he starting gives fouls against us, every time Everton lost possession he gave a foul against us, he failed to control the Everton players, Anichabe was in Tiote's face and being aggressive to him, Krul had to intervene, he only gave him a word about it when he wouldn't calm down, then he went and threw an elbow into Tiote later in the match. He wasn't the sole reason we lost, however he was a major part of the our problem today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Shola could quite easily have given a penalty away in the second half too. Had a massive grab of an Everton shirt to the extent it stretched about 2 or 3 feet as he ran away from him. Blatant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TCD23 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Atkinson and Webb shouldn't be anywhere near football let alone the PL. Absolutely awful and unashamedly biased. The only other ref as bad this season was the one who was in the game against the Mackems. Who was that again? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Re: Webb. It's obvious that if you give the big teams big decisions, you continue to referee big teams. If you don't, then you don't. The game is quite simply corrupt as fuck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebellious Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 In real life it was very balanced the amount of fouling from each side, In Atkinson world he blew for 21 fouls from us and 10 from them. I mentioned this the other week. Did anyone see the career ending foul that chelsea player only got a yellow for in the QPR game ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsted Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 He definitely bottled the big decision of the night. Can't believe we didn't get a penalty when Tiote shoved Naismith to the ground in the box. Nah, Naismith fouled him first and he and the commentators made a meal of the reaction. Atkinson was your star man with an assist for the equaliser and he dominated the game throughout, snuffing out any threat wee looked like posing. Wee just didn't have an answer to his power. Meh, wee'd take 12 v 11 I suppose, wee just don't get the offer. Does anyone know what his grudge is? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
