Clattenburg to ref Swansea match

[Always Next Year]

Before I send you off, can you tell me how many yellows I have given you.

[Guest LCFC_World]

He's not too bad to be honest, I'm expecting this to go a little better than last Sunday in terms of referee performance,

[KFS]

Not to jinx it but Clattenburg is the best ref in the Prem in my opinion

Prefer Michael Oliver but he is decent

[DennisNedry]

Clattenburg is one of the top refs imo.

[Matt]

That was regarding last weeks games, thus why we ended up with one of the leagues most inept referees.

It'd be interesting if one of the 'top' clubs were involved in a title fight as to whether the better referees would have been made available, I'd like to wager a large sum that they would have been.

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Best of a bad bunch to be fair.

I suspect Swansea will highlight any physical contact at set pieces with that being theme of the moment, hopefully Clattenburg will spot everything or spot nothing, not just a random selection of them (of the ones that are fouls) like Moss did. They will try to push Huth's buttons, I hear things got a bit heated after the away match we don't need another bunch of petty spiteful provocators after last weeks mob of neanderthals one moment wimps the next.

I worry more about Vardy when he returns ever winning penalties again, I can see it going the way of former Palace striker Andrew Johnson who by the end couldn't get one if he was shot due to the exposure of his previous dubious attempts to claim one.

Watching Moss try to keep up with Arsenals breaks last night was laughable, along with Sanchez there were two awful refs on the pitch! At least Clattenburg will be able to cover the pitch properly by reading the game and running in intelligent diagonals, not charging around like a fat bloke chasing a burglar.

Every ref is OK until he gives a decision against you, then he is shit. Ask Chelsea fans what they think of clattenburg.

I think he's one of the better ones though.

[Fox92]

Clattenburg and Oliver are the best in the Prem.

 

You won't find me complaining about this appointment.

Referee, Leader, Legend. 

[Leicesterpool]

Done a decent job in the games he's refereed the only bad game he had was the West Brom 2-2.

thinking back to that game i can't think of anything that stands out apart from berahinio having his strop? 

[Tuna]

Taffies must be up in arms, Newcastle fan that he is.

it's because it only takes one off night for your reputation to be tarnished in the eyes of one club.

West Ham were trying it on from the start and we matched em. You're right that Moss would have been better off giving nothing of importance and letting both sides fight it out than pissing everyone off with his inconsistency. I don't even think the players would have minded if they'd seen that was the official's approach. Both were clearly up for a contest.    

[Guest CityFan 06]

Clattenburg and Oliver are the best two refs in the league for me.

[David Hankey]

I'd sooner have Clattenburg than Moss!!

[Swarles Barkley]

I deeply hope this thread doesnt reach "my mate is the ref tonight" territory

[Mythyaar]

Happy enough with him. Doesn't make too many mistakes, and won't let the event get to him.

[Russell sprout]

Clattenbergs the best ref when we play imo

[Socks]

I always thought Moss was the best ref 

[TonyN11]

Seem to recall he's been pretty good for us in the past

[dayday]

Did he do the Man U game at the KP last season

[Royston.]

Not to jinx it but Clattenburg is the best ref in the Prem in my opinion

 

my dog has the best smelling shít in the park
