Wullie Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Clattenburg once again proving tonight that he is the best ref in English football by a country mile. An impossible game for him to manage, but he did extremely well. I thought he completely lost control of it. Why did he not send Dier off for that tackle right at the end?

triggs Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Have to completely disagree like. The game completely spiralled out of control. Don't know how he could have done worse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difficult game to manage but didn't help himself by trying to keep it 11 v 11 when the players were determined to be as cuntish as they possibly could be, safe in the knowledge the worst that was coming was a yellow. Blatant offences were either overlooked or downgraded to mere bookings, players took advantage and that's mainly the fault of the ref imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to wonder if how many would have been left on the pitch if it were West Brom V us or the mackems ? Exactly. By my reckoning Dembele, Lamela, Dier, Walker, Rose and Mason could all have quite easily have walked for what they actually did. Match would have had to have been abandoned as you can't play with less than 7. Clattenburg bottled every big decision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I liked how he tried to let the game flow and it was good to see him not overreact at times. However, there were so many blatant things he missed/bottled. Dier at the end, Mason trying to hug and head butt Hazard, Rose and Walker probably could have gone, and all. Can't really blame him for missing the snot throwing from Walker, the 'stamp' from Lamela and the gouging from Dembele. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Aye he did an amazing job, not sending off Dier the only negative. It would have been a second yellow which means he would be nice and fresh for our game. Clattenburg knew what he was doing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That really doesn't read brilliantly for Tottenham I'm not sure they'll get Walker for the booger flicking, or Lamela for treading on Fabregas. But Dembele has to be getting a 3 match ban. Did they change the laws, regarding an official seeing the incident? If the linesman admits to seeing that, then can they retrospectively ban him?

Beren Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I thought he did well in difficult circumstances, but a couple of players will likely get bans for things he didn't see. How? By turning a blind eye to multiple red card offences? Having a stern word to the first couple of offenders to give fair warning is fine, but then failing to be authoritative and follow through with his warning is weak and meant they could continue doing it with little or no repercussions (ie. yellows at most).

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I think the only big miss was the Dier foul, and that was more a second yellow. The really violent stuff all went on behind his back. Most of the little challenges and scuffles he let go are the sort of thing I want to see TBH, sending someone off every time two players square up is OTT.

Lush Vlad Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 That Dier foul could have been a straight red, IMO. It was one of the rare occasions, when a foul didn't look as bad in slow mo. In real time, it looked absolutely brutal and it was two footed, if memory serves? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs and Chelsea were both sneaky cunts in the things they were doing, he was trying to keep a hold on the game. You could say that he should have been tougher with them, but that would have just had both sets of players rolling around knowing they could get people sent off imo. Had he not done it in the way he did it, I think it would have been just as bad but with play-acting rather than dirtyness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
matta Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 How many of the spurs players should face retroactive actions? If vardy got a ban after his red card dive, then tottenham will be without half their team the last 2 games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
