Michael Oliver

If you didn't need to be careful what you say online anymore I'd be saying some pretty horrendous things.
 
He's the new Mike Dean. He craves any kind of spotlight.

He wasn't reffing any big match this weekend, no highlight fixture so he had to do something that will get his name talked about for the week.

It's an investment for the future for refs now. Become high-profile and you can get a talking head spot on Sky/BT when you hang up the whistle.

He's a dirty fecking cnut.

Hes far worse.

This weekend last year he gave the penalty to city for the hojlund thing. From var

Hes the only man in the world who thought that was a penalty and didn't see the handball. Its cheating and we all know why he's cheating.

Its a truly pathetic league, rotten to the core by money.
 
Yeah this guy is is bent. Not normally one for conspiracy theories but no need for him to get involved at all there. Nothing clear and obvious about it at all.
 
I generally think our ref's are fair. Not always the best and for sure make mistakes, but fair. This guy though, not a chance he is impartial with us. Not necessarily paid for corruption, but his decision making is certainly affected when it comes to us, most likely due to his support for Toon. He just shouldn't be allowed on our games, it's that simple, but if they do that they admit its a problem.
It's about time someone at the club grew a pair and took PGMOL to task about this bellend, I swear every year he finds some way to do it.
 
I think it’s getting to the point where refs should be switched up a lot more than they are.

Like 1-2 years in the top flight and then not allowed back in, regardless of how good/bad or controversial they are.

Refs like Oliver who have been in the epl for years making dodgy decisions constantly, it can’t go on. It really is looking like they are on the take or match fixing, betting on games etc
 


Cant even really blame the referee for not overruling the VAR that overrules him. I think i have only seen a referee walk to the screen and not give the penalty after review once. Oliver is also one of the highest rated English referees so no way the on field referee would be brave enough (and risk not getting matches in the future) by overruling Oliver.
 
Sitting in a little caravan doing VAR, thinks he'll just spice it up with a dodgy call.

The Abu Dhabi thing needs looking into. As well as the fact he’s an out of the closet geordie, and walks round in their kits when he isn’t fecking us over.

They should have the balls though, as overturning it is already an admission they've missed a potential. Sticking with their original shows they back themselves.

Utd ruined his childhood.
 
The latest in a long line of disgraceful Premier League referees. Never imagined we’d see worse than Mike Dean, yet here we are.

Not the first one like this either. Clattenburg was always on a mission to punish us post Fergie.
And even said on a commentary the other week how the ref should give a few soft calls to the home side to calm the crowd down!
 
Somebody should check the VAR van for semen as I think Oliver blew a load when he saw that coming together.
 
He gave Dalot two yellows for dissent within a minute.

I've seen countless times other players get a yellow and are still mouthing off, yet refs don't bother. Yet we have this cnut pulling out another yellow to send him off. He's clearly biased against us and the club should appeal.

This was nitpicking through video which isn't supposed to be done and the on field ref is watching this nearly 20 times. If there was consistency the game couldn't be played refereed like this.
 
Fair play to Jamie O'Hara on Sky Sports News saying it's an absolutely ridiculous decision. Nowhere near a clear and obvious error and VAR is re-refereeing the game.
 
For those of a certain age you can see the similarities between him and George Courtney who funnily enough was also a Geordie / both a pair of united hating bent w anchors
 
I genuinely don’t believe this is just because he’s a bitter Geordie. He’s on the payroll of UAE, we know that for a fact and I would bet my fecking house that he’s rewarded handsomely every time he fecks us over.

This is spot on. It should be stickied.
 
I'm not sure if he's actually biased against us but he's utterly incompetent and has the main character syndrome, which is pretty much the worst combination that I can imagine in a referee. He's genuinely the worst referee that I've seen in my life following football, he doesn't just make mistakes, he actively seeks out controversial decisions.
 
It was a horrible VAR call. Was not surprised in the slightest that it was Michael Oliver. If the on field referee takes so long to make a decision even on review, how can it be a clear and obvious error? As much as Ten Hag has not been getting good results, it doesn't help that a free goal was largely handed to West Ham as a result of the VAR calamity.
 
He wanted something to happen and he got what he wanted, the same thing happens to United and he would not even look at it

Disagree, he is not incompetent, he knows what's he's doing, last year Doku karate kicks Macalister and didn't give a peno, here Ings goes into De Ligt and falls over and Oliver calls the ref to the screen, he made the decision consciously
 
It was televised in multiple countries and watched by millions.
Do you think the commentators opinions on the likes of NBC Sports carry as much weight as the English Premier League broadcasters? I've seen managers in press conferences being quizzed on Gary Neville's comments, but I've never seen them being quizzed on the views of Tim Howard.

Hes been paid by a club who was so small on being bought by UAE that players signing for them hadn't heard of them. Were all just supposed to pretend that while they rack up charges for cheating in the PL that their brand isn't better served by there only being one competitive team in Manchester.

This whole PL is now like the truman show, it feels like losing one's mind to see the cheating and corruption to such a glaring level while sky and bbc and so on just keep rolling on like nothing.

We're all, to a man, total fools for continuing to support this money mule operation that has absolutely destroyed the sport

I don't see how this argument proves his competence to be honest.

THe suggestion he can get away with something dodgy cos it's not live in the UK is daft cos it'll be analysed to death anyway and be commented on by Neville and many others besides.
 
Can the club make a statement asking pgmol to not allow this clown to referee us again? Other clubs always do but our club just accepts everything and never complains
