An easy game to Ref, Wolves certainly did not try to kick ManU off the park, Ref Oliver strolled through it, getting most decisions right, but too many wrong calls in favour of Man Utd. it is easy to see why he does not get the bigger games.
RVP would love to see the Wellbeck incident where he ignores a whistle, dribbles up the pitch and scores, an easy yellow ignored by the Ref.
Ref Rev 02,
Nice one, especially your RVP/Wellbeck parallel!
I’d like to suggest that the Reviews headlines indicate which is the home side. Ex: Untold Ref Review : MU 4 – Wolves(h) 1
That is, (h) for whomever is home team.
Changed the names in to team names Bob to make things a bit clearer. MU was at home by the way
Still 50% of the wrong calls went ManU way! Clearly if this is the case consistently with ManU more people ought to be asking questions. Why this bias?
