Every week being forced to watch John Moss huff it up the pitch 30 yards behind the run of play on counter attacks is one of the most painful viewing experiences in the PL. That said I have major respect for how he handled the end of the Liverpool game and I think got both calls right. Which probably means he'll not give us a thing Saturday for fear of being murdered in the streets by screeching Liverpool fans.

a bit like Mike Dean, he has gave us fuck all this season after being classed as a Spurs fan

If he were a Spurs fan, there's no way he would be given any of our matches to officiate in. The referees code strictly prohibits any ref being given a match in which the team he supports is participating in.

The whispers that Dean is a Spurs fan were probably put out by some boneheaded rival fans who felt he was giving us a few more calls than he should have (to their detriment) some time ago and it seems to have stuck.

I guess we can all find out (if we wanted to) which referees have never been given any of our matches to officiate in, and if there are any, there's your answer to who (probably) is a Spurs fan.

I know he isn't a Spurs fan, and refs are not allowed to ref their teams matches. it all went back to when it looked like he was celebrating the Dembele goal v A Villa. his performance in the Swansea and Arse away game this season was very worrying

Yes. Whenever anyone tells me Dean is a Spurs fan, I feel like bursting out laughing.

I believe there were a couple of penalty shouts in the West Ham 1-1 he kindly ignored also. I'd rather he didn't ref us again. Overcompensating for stuff that wasn't even real.

the thing is that Villa game was 2-3 seasons ago, and he took a fair amount of stick for it, yet this season he has been ref 3-4 PL games and the Caraboa Cup v Spam

I think the City comments stem back to the game at their place in December where Alli most probably should of seen red, and Kane might of seen red.

their worrying about Moss is a joke, think the last time he was ref when we played City he sent Fazio off gave them 2 pens, and we lost 5 or 6-1 (I hate Moss).
All that really annoys me because Otamendi should have seen red for them before half time and it would have been a completely different game, but no one talks about that.

I agree, Otamendi leapt up and intentionally kicked Harry Kane in the face, how can that not be a red card?

It's amazing how Foy hasn't been labelled a Stoke fan in the aftermath of that game.
I have never seen such a blatant attempt by a ref to affect the outcome of a game.

Clutterberg tried hard in the battle of the bridge, especially missing the push on Jan for Cahill to score the 1st when directly next to the incident

He also could have sent off Dembele and Lamella.
He said he let everything go as he didn't want to be accused of spoiling our title chances.

And, most obviously, Dier.

I sem to recall that they'd spent the first half kicking us up in the air though and got away with all of it. Jan even took an elbow or two iirc? Clattenberg never had any intention of attempting to control the game.

"Wouldn’t mind him getting injured against City and missing the rest of the season and the WC.

I know wishing injury on a player is blasphemous on RAWK but I haven’t sentenced to him death and the **** deserves an injury after this shit. "


Some knob head on RAWK actually said that, all because Kane tried to claim that goal! The Spurs thread has been very busy this week because of it, they really don't like us do they :sneaky: https://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=314337.11360

Why is Salah winning the Golden Boot so important to them anyway?
