Taylor ,yesterday was totally incompetent, missed quite a bit in my view , but got home and watched MOTD and had to listen to Lineker and Co purring over Man City , would have been a different game if the Ref there had balls and had sent Kompany off ,evidently the experts concluded that the incident was too early in the game ! One hears about fouls in relation to when it occurred in the game and pundits pontificating that "If it wasn't so early in the game...." etc etc. Regards the Kompany incident, clearly the referee thought that Stones was near enough not for Kompany to have denied an obvious goalscoring opportunity.

Another good bit of mind-reading there, Willo. How do you do it?

Actually I think I can guess your secret. It involves speaking through orifices other than your mouth, shall we say.

At least I can speak from a position of authority concerning referees decisions having qualified as a referee, been to umpteen referees meetings and spoken to a number of senior referees. Accordingly I try and give a referees perspective about decisions made and try to offer possible explanations regarding controversial incidents.

Well the rest of us have given some possible explanations for what that idiot got up to yesterday and most of them are a hell of a lot more plausible than yours. Anyway you've basically admitted there that you're a fully paid up member of the referees' union which is why you try to rationalise the most preposterous decisions in ways that frankly make you look like the village idiot. You could describe what you think his thought process was without trying to deny that he performed appallingly poorly. But you don't. You stick up for the useless b*****d in the face of the most indefensible incompetence. And then you have the immortal rind to call yourself a Palace fan. Edited by chateauferret (19 Nov 2017 7.23pm)

Edited by chateauferret (19 Nov 2017 7.23pm) For the record I have been a supporter of our club since the 60s. I am not a 'Defence lawyer' for any referee either individually or collectirely all I have tried to do is try and see incidents from a referees perspective. Only today I tried to contact a referee who used to officiate in England but is currently abroad and it went through to Voicemail. I left a message so hopefully he will return my call soon and we will discuss the Niasse and Kompany incidents. Finally, at least I can argue my case withour resort to use of the terms "Idiots" "Useless bas...rds" and "Village idiot".

You haven't argued your case at all. You've just trotted out the same tired old apologies for abysmal officiating that you always spout on these occasions and refused to discuss anything you deem inconvenient. You're right, though: "idiot" is far too tame a word to describe the man in black yesterday.

You don't still believe Willo has a hotline to "Mark", do you? Mark split up with him ages ago.

With respect, says somewhat who has trotted out the same vitriol against the referee whilst using terms like "Idiot". As ever I have tried to explain the decisions from a referee's perspective that's all and not acting any defacto 'Defence Lawyer' in the process.
