Where did he get 5 mins from?!
Michael Oliver
- Thread starter stubie
- Start date
He bottled sending off Bruno, but who cares?
Surprisingly good tonight I thought.
Missed a couple of big calls, but he was consistent the rest of the match.
He bottled sending off TAA also
Which ones. Sending offs probably but what else.
He did ok
Early one on TAA & one more that is escaping me.
Endless subs, dust up after the goal for a minute with Fernandes hanging onto the ball, Varane down with cramp a few times.
Had a very good game tonight.
The Bruno ball hog saga was weird. It’s literally our ball, how are the Liverpool players not getting reprimanded? Imagine doing that to a keeper before taking a goal kick.
I’ve never understood how the opposition have a right to snatch the ball like that

Beating the scouse is one thing, but beating them with Michael Oliverpool as their 12th man is even better.
He's so bent they genuinely celebrate him being appointed to their games over on RAWK.

Agreed, it's always been weird that the team kicking off has had players booked for taking the ball and stopping the goal scoring team from grabbing the ball
Probably because otherwise teams will just try to wander the ball to the half way line and spend 2mins doing it to take all momentum away like Bruno tried.
He was good
It was United’s ball and the watch would have been stopped, plus there’s no momentum regardless as the game stops and restarts, it’s not like a free kick where someone can gain advantage from playing it early.

I thought so too. Unspectacular, which is what a ref should be
They can wander without the ball? It’s Bruno who kicks off anyway!
I’m talking more of a lawful right. That may be the case but what right does a Liverpool player have to snatch a ball off a player who’s ball it is? I don’t see them snatching balls off keepers who slow down for goal kicks etc
It's just something opposition players do when they're losing and the clock is running down, grab the ball as quickly as possible and ran manically back to centre circle so the game can kick off more quickly given opposition all in their own half....of course it dosen't work out like that.
I assume a Man. United player quickly grabbed the ball from net in 99 CL final when it went to 1-1.
Fernandes was certainly risking a second yellow as I've seen a few keepers booked when they've grabbed the ball after a penalty has been scored and losing team have tried to kick off quickly.

We are officially fecked.
He should never have been allowed a United game again after Hart stuck the nut on him and he did nothing
Was it a yellow, didn't see it?
yeah, stupid from Dalot
Has a Massive agenda
Nope. Card happy on United. He’ll be lenient as hell on City.
Weak.
feck this wanker
Massive fecking cnut
He is not our biggest problem
I mean obviously we have a bunch of mentally weak cnuts but a yellow card for a standard foul 3 minutes into the game of course it made said mentally weak cnuts scared stiff anytime City were on the ball
He isn't, but he clearly isn't capable of refereeing this calibre of a game.
How on earth are we making this display about him?
We've been awful but he's itching to send one of our players off
He’s a Man City ****.
Getting off on them fekkin someone else.

No I agree, that card in Dalot after 90sec set the tone. We aren't allowed to touch them
Guarantee a city player makes exactly the same foul second half and he won't book them.
No no I agree but he wasn't our biggest problem
Cocks up the added time.
Yea how could it be 2 minutes with 10 subs and 5 second have goals? He’s an arse.
Completely set his agenda from the 1st minute.
Anyone that thinks a referee can’t influence a game needs their head checked
