Match Thread Everton 1-1 West Ham . Sat March 15th. 3pm

Why ask ref to check it, just overrule it ffs

To tell the ref "you see that? You gave that, now we had to do some work, behave"

Been too many kicking the ground instead of the ball moments recently. Can the players not tell the difference?

His striking leg was hit by the defender behind. Hence why he kicks the ground. Liverpool get that pen all day. Soft defo, but not enough for VAR to stick it’s greasy beak in

Just when we think the ref can't get any worse, the next one comes along and proves us wrong. But this clown is on another level. I wouldn't let him take charge of a Sunday league game.

Just knew how his performance would go within the first couple minutes. Could say that about most refs, you just know early days if they will be decent or atrocious for the 90min

I've just noticed a bit of a quirky coincidence, 6 of the starters and 8 of the squad all have the same initial for their given names, It's not exactly noteworthy but I thought I'd point it out!?

Shows how crap this game is that it's got you looking at this as a highlight

 

[Jimishorts]

Noone can suggest that was a penalty.

Not quite no one.

Stuck his leg out - pen for me.

Just glad it was Beto that kicked the ground not the Albanian beast. He’d be out for another 8 weeks if it was

 

[Exeter_Gently]

They were good under Dyche.

You just thought they were because we never scored from open play ha.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Lipuwl would have got 2 penalties there.

 

[DanB90]

He’s not given that cretin Paqueta anything and for that I have to give him at least a little credit

He hasn’t booked him for either, and he’s made about 3-4 fouls iirc.

BTW, this ref has only done 11 PL matches, and SOMEHOW 3 are against us. This seems to be a pattern whenever a I look up a one-sided referee. A ref should be 1 in every 19 matches with any particular club.

Doesn't work like that as they need to work it so that referees aren't officiating teams from their local area, or teams who are rivals with the team they support, etc. Still, this particular cart has been absolutely terrible so far today, no idea why it's a continuous topic for us but we often appear to be up against 12 men this season.

 

[Blue83]

We're a bit rubbish without Ndiaye, hoping he can return sooner rather than later

What is it with our players kicking the ground ffs

You're probably right, but to be relying on Lindstrom and Harrison shows how short of bodies we really are.

Maybe so but at least play them in the right bloody positions.

 

[gianthogweed]

Everton never get pens rightly or wrongly that one was not a pen
