One of the worst decisions ever, imagine Fergie after the game with this kind of decision 
Martin Atkinson
- Thread starter Count Orduck
- Start date
He is the worst ref in the league. Looks like a creep of a man who has no friends too.
Useless cnut.
Sunderland literally have been robbed here. What a shocking decision !!!
Even after stupidly blowing your whistle... How the feck do you not send someone off for denying a goal scoring opportunity when the striker has gone on to score a fecking goal!?! The work is literally been done for you... he really must be some special kind of idiot.
Terrible terrible decision, I'm lost for words. This guy has been consistently shit for years and yet he still officiates games at the highest level. He must be blackmailing someone high up. Unbelievable what he did to Sunderland...
The Sunderland pen was very soft too.
He seems to have a fetish for London clubs
That was hilariously awful. He's got to be dropped from the list after this.
He'll just say that he whistled way before Altidore scored but then again nobody stopped playing.
That Altidore is a right lump though. Atkinson probably thought there was no way he'd finish the chance.
The scary thing is that Atkinson could really have thought that.
Just saw this, the most incompetent ref in the league.
exactly.Someone in the fa must have lost lost a bet and made him a premier league ref. I can't wrap my head around how a guy can make so many awful awful decisions and still continue. It's like they're playing some sort of terrible joke on everyone, sort of a "guess who still referred football matches? THIS guy!" (?Camera pans to Atkinson destroying the minds of another football team through an inspiring decision involving buffoonery)
My money's on Atkinson to be the first ref to decide to over-rule the goalline technology.
I am sorry but
Retard
Retard
what did he do now?
he's a dick. He had a great view.
Miserable cnut
Dick features is acting the cnut again.
Would have done us a favor to send off Fellaini. Will count that mistake against him as well.
First of all he let play wave on when Rooney got hit by an artic lorry, and then When Mccarthy basically sweet chin music's Fellaini's head off he somehow gives the foul the over way.
Sometimes I really do wonder what people see?.

he seemed to spend the first 30mins yesterday letting everything go.
Awful ref.
Awful ref.
You could tell from the first ten minutes he was going to have an awful game. Of course, Martin Tyler kept praising him for letting the game flow.
He's quite simply the worst referee in the league.
Nothing he does surprises me anymore.

The body on Vidic (?) was a penalty or not ?
And the Pienaar(?) one on Adnan on the edge of the box.
Only half watching MOTD, but was Atkinson smiling like a Cheshire cat when showing that Stoke player (Whelan?) a red card? It looked very unprofessional to me.
it was a ridiculous sending off for Whelan at least - not quite in the "Wes Brown-class" but still....
He's absolutely gagging to send one of our players off today. At the rate he's going I wouldn't be surprised if he sent a couple off.
Nice of his linesman to see this bias, and try and even out the score a bit, mind

He's itching to make the headlines
Yes he's been card happy but all our cards were deserved IMHO. We made some silly challenges.
To be honest, all deserved yellows.He's absolutely gagging to send one of our players off today. At the rate he's going I wouldn't be surprised if he sent a couple off.

Shouldn't Allan have had two yellows? The one right after Fellaini got his yellow was just as much a yellow card. Professional foul.
All deserved yellows (Evans might be a bit debatbale though). No complains from me.
The linesman made a mistake on the second goal, but it was extremely difficult to see that RVP touchd the ball.

Evans was no way a yellow and he should have booked a couple of their players breaking our play up around the halfway line if he is to be seen as 'consistent'. Infuriating refereeing.
Classic Atkinson.
