Michael Oliver

[Powderfinger]

Any professional ref today with Oliver's resume would of given Dalot a yellow for his initial outburst which I have no problem with. After his second throwing of his arm, said ref would of had a talk with him and tell him to stfu otherwise it's a second. Any ref other than this cnut who hates Utd. Reminds of Mascherano <sp> at OT.

Pretty much. Totally ridiculous to give the second yellow there.

Good referees don't get caught up in their own ego and they don't go out of their way to make themselves the story or to change a game without good reason.

Oliver has a tendency to do both. He thinks he is the best referee in the PL and that he has a reputation to defend when the reality is that he is just a guy who nobody gives a feck about and nobody is there to watch. The perfect match is one in which nobody remembers the referee's name afterward.

He thinks he is the best referee in the PL

Think PL/FA project him as such by giving him big games. Very similar to the Clattenburg situation.

 

[led_scholes]

If Dalot deserved a red card, then.Nunez did the same in the first half. I do not see much difference in the two situations.

The only difference is that Nunez also fouled someone.

 

[Baneofthegame]

Hardly shocking, talks about applying the laws and then in the next sentence says it’s so difficult.

 

[Baneofthegame]

Also went over to the linesman as well.

It was a really bad foul too. Borderline red. The replay looks really bad. Not even looking at the football. Eyes Evans up and deliberately hurts him. A proper coward’s assault. Shit-house behaviour.

Exactly. Honestly think there would have been calls for a red had that been a United player yesterday.

I get that Rob…but he didn’t did he

wtf is that? It’s like listening to a six year old. They all know hat there is an agenda against United and a deep dislike, Dermot understands why Oliver did what he did, he can’t even defend it so he just avoids until cornered and replies like a child.

Also on the split screen when you watch Dalot there’s frustration but no real aggression in what he did, it’s absolutely bizarre and then this weapon is saying he had to send him off.

 

[arnie_ni]

Why didn't VAR look at the Nunez challenge? For me he's not looking at the ball, lead with his elbow with the sole intention of taking out Evans.

Should've arguably seen red for that, and if not for that, should've been at least yellow carded for looking like Ian Huntley, the shithouse

It wasn't too dissimilar to the red the guy for fulham got on Saturday.

Could easily have been a red yeah.

And yet every time someone says these feckers have got an agenda someone has to pipe up with “stop being paranoid, they’re crap for everyone.”

We should probably be grateful that sir Oliver didn’t class each “it was on the ball” as separate counts of dissent and that Bruno wasn’t sent off.

That stat doesn't shock me in the least. Been watching him for years, he usually gives United a few soft yellows in the first half to set up the possibility of a red in the 2nd. I'd put good money on him having given United way more red cards than Chelsea, Arsenal, City or Liverpool over his career.

Interesting seeing the response of a so-called charity about stopping abuse towards referees, tagged in by the poster. Basically saying it's all on United to play by the bent refereeing and shut up.

Their view is 'its only a throw in so why is Dalot reacting like that', which tells you everything about the person behind the account. Do they even watch football?

I hadn't seen the challenge again, it's actually worse than I thought, I initially said it would have been a soft red, but there is only intent to hurt so it actually wouldn't have been particularly shocking.

Yeah his bias against United is pretty obvious by now, anyone who tries to dismiss it as being "RAWKish" or something else is not a serious person.

This bit - spot on. Referees have a role to play in managing games, not just avoiding responsibility and making out everything is being done to them. A good ref there manages the situation, rather than trying to exploit a directive to be seen to clamp down on bad behaviour. If he understands the game, he knows Liverpool are rushing to take the throw-in and Dalot's reaction is quickly over because he needs to participate in the game.

 

[OldSchoolManc]

Have United requested this biased scrote is never reffing us again yet?

Anyone watched his horrendous decisions in the Marseille vs Panathinaikos champions league playoffs last august?

Why are people suddenly surprised how referees and media treat us? This has been going on for years and years. Shouldn't come as some shock. What I'm still waiting is this club to say something.

Every decision matters….. even a throw in. Nobody knows if Liverpool will take that incorrect decision and score from the throw in. I wonder if VAR would have got involved if that happened.

Not to mention that you can see two separate incidents of card waving motions from Darwin.

Darwin count: Tackle (no yellow), booting the ball away (yellow), sarcastic clapping towards assistant (no yellow), sarcastic smile and thumbs up towards assistant (no yellow), card waving motion (no yellow), card waving motion (no yellow).
Dalot count: Flailing of arm (yellow), flailing of arm (yellow).

Consistency!!!!!!!

Couldn't see the thread but the main tweet was that 75% of Oliver's dissent yellows this season are to United players.

What a slimy cnut. Fortunately the red card happened right at the death so the game wasn't totally screwed up for us.

Thanks. He’s the referee I hate the most. Bothers me so much that his hatred for United is as apparent as it is and yet there’s nobody stopping it.

Why do you expect anyone to stop that when nobody's doing anything about the fact that he's employed by City's owners and being assigned to officiate City's games?

I hate him as much as the next man, but if blatant corruption isn't looked at then why would perceived bias be?

In a few years we'll have the Negreira equivalent here and everyone will be like "WHAAAAAAT? Here? In the PL?"

 

[lex talionis]

The double booking on Dalot for the same infraction -- and it was nothing more than an infraction at worst -- was beyond the pale. It was not even that close to a proper booking, let alone a sending off decision.

It was as though Oliver thought Dalot was actually Casemiro and decided that he needed to be sent off.

I hope his Christmas dinner gets ruined, th cnut.

I hope he wakes up on Christmas morning, goes down the stairs, sees that there's no presents, and when he asks his wife what they're having for dinner she replies "I don't care what you're having but I'm having Santa's knob" and then Santa dropkicks him and laughs and he does find one sad little present with "To Cnutface" written on it so he opens it up and it's just socks.
