He turned up at 11.05 for a 11 O'clock kick off, and straight from the start it was obvious he was out of his depth. He let bad tackles go unpunished for a start which led to the game being littered with fouls. When he did blow his whistle he would wait 10 - 15 secs before he would indicate which team it was for, and more often than not it was wrong. It's was pretty obvious that he's a bit of an eccentric character too and at times seemed to be acting out just to get a reaction from the crowd. In the end it was just farcical with both teams just kicking lumps out of eachother and when he would blow for a foul he would take out his yellow card but not show it to anyone just hold it in his hand. For 2 premier league teams who train twice a week added to all the work that goes on behind the scenes gearing up to these matches on a sunday morning to be subjected to this level of refereeing is a complete joke.
