Don't they get demoted to the championship after poor games.. He should be demoted to league one for at least a month.

The manner in which Man Utd won will overshadow Mason's performance. Even by PL refs current standards that was poor

That foul on Martial was 1000x worse than Ibra's "foul" but nothing at all.

BTW it should have been a penalty for Ibra, he touched the ball before Valdes went jumping into him, how could it possibly be the other way around? Absolutely mental.

Yeah, that's the thing. As we often win more games than lose, this will be forgotten in two days time and the next time we win with maybe a wrong pen call we will be the team that "always get that".

The FA need to scrutinize his performance which is one of the worst I can remember. If a day like that doesn't warrant dropping that ref into the lower levels I don't know what is.

Sounds like he had an awful game. And that bit about him looking like a 3 month old is unfair on actual babies.

Martial's not a penalty .. He took his shot then was hit .. You don't get a penalty given for that ... Is the same as being hit after losing the ball .. you just don't get those

What nonsense. Isn't it a foul if someone takes you out in the middle of the field after you've made your pass?

It's called a late tackle and he didn't get the ball, it is 100% a foul.

I hope his microwave meal for one tonight tastes like shit and his evening wank is ruined by the video constantly buffering. Though with the latter he'd probably just look in the mirror.

It's a foul not a penalty . He didn't deny a goal scoring opportunity ..

Someone on reddit claims Mason has a cousin that works as an assistant at Boro.
Surely that should rule him out if not for honest mistakes like today?

Even BT Sport couldn't bring themselves to defend that Albino Malteser


Sure, there's a moment where Ince imagines up a Boro penalty and Howard Webb pretends to play along for a second despite not having seen it but progress is progress.

The new newbie system has a lot to answer for.

I don't usually mind Lee Mason but he was extremely poor today. Shy'ed away from making any tough decisions.

I didn't think it gets worse than that ref when we were at Crystal Palace the other week but Lee Mason made that ref look like Pierluigi Collina.

Worst referring performance of 2016, absolutely dire. Might as well have had a Middlesbrough shirt on, gave us very very little and allowed many many fouls on our players and what on earth did he see wrong with Ibra's goal?.

His performance today was similar to George Courtney when he was reffing. I honestly thought he was going to give them that pen at the end such was his uselessness.

The Premier League wants to be the top League but with refs like that it's a bit of a joke

@lsd im guessing he means you get those sorts of fouls outside the box but rarely pens when the player actually gets the shot away?
Which kind of makes sense.

I can't get over that performance, just terrible. Want to see that high boot on Mkhi too, if you call the goal back how do you not give the foul on Mkhi, and then the one on Pogba when the defender dives in....just comical and so inconsistent.
