Title: Arsenal women v Manchester United women -Kirstie Dowle (Kent)

So after the recent criticism by the Tottenham women’s manager about the standard of officiating in the super league, I thought I would watch this game live on sky sports now.

12th minute missed caution - McCabe (Arsenal) takes out Parris quite wildly allows play to continue but no advantage signal, fully expects the card when ball went out of play but nothing, this was picked up by sky and co commentator said Arsenal player got to watch herself.

16th minute Arsenal on the break foul expectation was a foul no whistle.

24th min - co commentator said referee is looking indecisive about whether to blow for fouls, main commentator commented it nice she is letting it flow .

Will update as game goes on, but sadly not impressed with referee Dowle. .

31st minute again and r we missed opportunity to play a simple advantage again leads to co commentator to say she feels the referee is really struggling to read the game of when to start and stop the game.

Sadly I have I agree not a good half hour from the referee.

Positive - Both assistants have made some really strong offside decisions 👍🏻👍🏻
