Can anyone tell me when he last was in charge of a Spurs match where he gave us some decisions? At the weekend it felt like we were playing at Old Trafford with his decisions.

There was a time were he seemed to celebrate a couple of our goals and it coincided with a run of like 8 games were Arse hadn’t won a game with him in charge of course the media picked up on it and took the piss it was even a sketch on soccer AM ffs, since then he ain’t give us fk all and probably Arse haven’t lost either can’t be assed to check that one.
Conspiracy? Probably just paranoia remember a ref getting simalar treatment for Man Utd can’t remember his name bit of a twat not sure if it made a difference to them though

There was a game a couple of season's ago, when one of our players was brought down but he waved play on as we still had the advantage. We scored from that and he seemed to be celebrating the goal, where in most of our minds and opinion, he was just congratulating himself (rightly or wrongly) for making the right call, by not pulling the play back. People and the media then took it to mean he was cheering for us which was not the case, so that's how the rumour started.

Howard Webb. Mark Halsey. Mark Clattenburg.

Howard Webb especially though. I remember we were 2-0 up against them at OT under Harry. Ronaldo took the most blatant dive to win a penalty. They ended up scoring 5 that day when they had initially not looked like scoring until thay penalty was awarded.

We’ve had that game on the TVs at work for the past week, doesn’t look much of a dive to me anymore. More just Gomes being a clumsy arsehole. I haven’t been paying too much attention though, tend to look away when we go 2-0 up

Do you work in a torture chamber or something?

Feels that way sometimes. We've got SkySports on all day here and in the build-up to any big game they seem to show highlights of past encounters. Unfortunately for us, we were absolute shite for ages, so each time it's a Spurs game I see us taking pastings out of the corner of my eye

It was Carrick who won the penalty iirc.

Only Spurs could have a 'biased referee' that never gives us anything. Every 50/50 in the first half was given their way. He gave a corner at one point just because Pogba appealed for it.

Last season he probably cost us 4 points against WH and Swansea at Wembley by failing to give blatant penalties. He also reffed the NLD where the opener was never a foul and the goalscorer was offside.

No doubt he's overcompensates for the rumours. That is unfair in itself. I'd rather he just never officiated our games.

He rushed out but clearly got fingertips to the ball - which moved away from goal and Carrick's path - and didn't make contact until afterwards (just youtubed it after reading this). It was never a penalty, but you can see why an eager Howard Webb would give it. I was in the away end and could see the touch clear as day from my angle.

I'm not sure if he's overcompensating, I just think he's a dreadful referee who has an ego.

I have just seen Garrager on sky lambasting Samba for the tackle he got a red card for but the Pogba tackle was worse and was defended by Jamie Redknapp because "Pogba is not that type of player" well for me he is that type of player and as Robbie Keane said he got away with a similar tackle against Shelvey .
I have decided that I will only watch the match on sky and not listen to the pre match and after match talk as it ends me up because these pundits have no integrity and change there views to fit their agenda.
Mike Dean is a coward or a just a bad ref for not having the balls to give a definite red card.
