loved the cigars he was chewing on quality!

Yeh i saw that,completely shameful behaviour!!!!
I also agree re-mcnally but in his defence i've also seen him win matchs virtually on his own.

Yeah, was looking forward to seeing him play but he did zip.

Agreed on Rooney.

Can I also say that the referee was the best perforamance I have seen from a ref for 80 minutes in a long while.

He got pretty much everything spot on. Let the game flow where warranted, pulled what was needed, and kept a decent 10.

Hats off to that fellow.

I'd be more inclined to agree if he hadn't decided that an all black kit was appropriate for refereeing a team which plays in navy blue. Doesn't take a genius to find out what colour each team will be playing in and pick your kit accordingly - failing to do so makes you look a bit amateurish.

Oh, and more proof last night that someone, somewhere in SL really should have taken a punt on Craig Calvert - the guy's a born finisher, the flaws in his game aren't fatal ones and could have been ironed out if he'd been got hold of early enough.

First time I've seen that ref since he was Liam on big brother.
