I thought that Martin Atkinson should have cautioned Firmino in the Liverpool V Man Utd game yesterday but I'm sure Warnock wouldn't suggest that he was Sunday morning level.

Yes, that was a strange one - seemed to tick all the boxes of a standard YC, even more so as he had already booked Dalot and didn't give him the 'first tackle' exemption.  Certainly not a KMI but just strange.  However, thought Atkinson was excellent overall.

I am sure that on this (rare) occasion you are completely wrong. I clearly recall some TV coverage of him in his refereeing kit actually turning out to referee a local parks game.

I stand corrected then, I was sure I had seen Warnock himself say that he was never a proper referee but I can't find it.

For what it's worth I felt the challenge by Deeney was probably worth a YC but he slid a long way and it wasn't easy to tell whether he could have stopped sooner.
Delighted to see Andy Madley in the PL.

On a general note, I was surprised so few comments about PL games when catching up after we were away for 2 weeks.  For example, Chelsea v Man City was a top match and I would have expected some discussion.  Just wondering therefore:-

Have there just been less contentious incidents in the PL recently or have referees been performing to a high standard that controversy has been avoided?

Neil Warnock has been asked by the FA to explain his post-match comments on Andrew Madley (BBC Football News)

I've lost count how many times Colin has been asked to explain his remarks after games.

The FA need to deal with him aggressively, however I'm sure they'll give him a slap on the wrist and move on.
Hardly a strong way of tackling this kind of behaviour, even though it's the usual suspects like Colin who always seem to be one of the main protagonists.

Not sure if Mourinho’s name will rearrange into something similar to Colin ******!!

I really do dislike the media’s reporting of these Premier League matches for SG2 referees.  Constantly calling them a “rookie ref” makes it sound as though they have never taken charge of a match anywhere previously.

Another reason that hate the post 1992 footballl era.
