I don't get why refs bottle the second yellow card so often... what does it matter to them if they have to send someone off? Boro bloke just got away with a blatant one.

 

Aye, was a blatant yellow card.  Deserved to be sent off.

Ref looks a right  bottler as well. Timid as fuck.

Sometimes refusing to apply the laws of the game consistently is known as "sensible refereeing." PFMs love a bit of "sensible refereeing", doesn't "ruin the game as a spectacle" see- can't be doing with holding the players responsible for their own behaviour- sometimes its their mate.

 

Prime example being the tussle between mitro and olsson in the recent game vs norwich. Mitro, fresh on as a sub, was straight in the book, then the ref spent about 10 seconds studying his book presumably to see if olsson was one of the many players already in it before seeing he wasn't then calling him back across to give him a yellow.

Roger East is a shocking referee, he didn't see an absolute blatant penalty that was right in front of him in the Hull-Arsenal game a few weeks ago.

 

He usually loves getting his round red card out too

Sunderland are entertaining to watch because they're so bad. Boro are boring because they aren't entertainingly bad, nor very good

 

im finding the whole premier league boring, thought i'd miss it.

 

told my mate yesterday i didn't want to go up  :lol: :lol:

 

With exceptions, the PL is boring. PL clubs are far more risk averse than those in the Championship. When the priority for many is simply to avoid relegation and stay on the gravy train, the result is conservative, boring football. There's more margin for error in a 24-team league as well.

 

I love the fact that we're actually scoring goals and winning football matches, regardless of what league we're in.
