Oliver received some criticism on 1 November 2010 after refereeing a Premier League fixture between Blackpool and West Bromwich Albion, during which he issued two red cards to West Brom players. The first, to Pablo Ibanez for a foul in his penalty area, was subsequently rescinded upon appeal to the Football Association.

On 13 November 2010, Oliver refereed a Football League Championship match between Reading and Norwich City. Shortly before half-time, he showed a red card to Norwich striker Grant Holt for an apparent over-the-ball tackle on Ian Harte, with the score at 3–1 to the visitors. The match finished 3–3 with Norwich manager Paul Lambert being sent to the stands by Oliver for leaving his technical area. After the game, Lambert questioned Oliver's experience[7] and strongly criticised his decision to send Holt off,[8] while the opposition's manager Brian McDermott also criticised the decision. The red card was later rescinded by the FA[9] and Lambert was charged with improper conduct for his comments

I remember that red, Holts foot was high and his studs up but his foot actually went between the Reading players legs. It was dangerous in movement but not in area, a few inches either side it could have been a leg breaker, as it is no contact was made. But there doesn't have to be.
