Maybe, but even the best have off days and it seems too many have that reffing our games .. I wouldn't be surprised if he gives them a contentious penalty in injury time or sends Zaha off for repeated simulation.

I think Michael Oliver is currently the best in the PL but no one is infallible ...

The Guardian published a series of stats related to team incompetence (own goals, throws in to the opposition etc. etc.). One thing jumped out at me: Palace have the most bookings for simulation...3.

First: it's only 3 to have the most? Second, it's a joke because all three were legit fouls (and penalties).

Also, we have missed 3 of our 6 penalties. So while we bitch and moan about pens not given - me most definitely included in that - we'd be long safe if we'd scored just one of those 3 we missed.

We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

I've concluded that Willo is a bot, has a two hundred word vocabulary & programmed to add random caps & quotation marks.

I think he was accusing me of calling all the referees bent or f***wits, something which he should by now know I'm not going to change my mind about.

As my esteemed colleague Michaela asked, What allegations?

Clinton is Clinton. I have known him for a long time, I know his mother... Simon Jordan

And Andre Marriner will be in charge of the other crunch match - S'land v Swansea
