Did he give any reason why Osman is still playing?
.....funny enough he didn't.

He would struggle in the Conference TBH woeful display of reffing!What he's doing in charge of a Premier League match is beyond me
is there a least spineless person in the world than lee mason?
what an utter horror performance, players from both teams were going down so easily every 5 seconds and he falls for it every single time. he finally calls someone out for diving, went to give a free kick and then realised he would have to brandish a red card, so decided not to. how has wickham escaped a red as well? i mean as far as clear goalscoring opportunities go, denying a tap in from 7 yards is pretty clear-cut. he didn't even book him! we all know why, because he feared he'd made a mistake due to all the complaining from sland players.
the worst of the lot though was being shoved over by mccarthy, he didn't even react. he just ignored mccarthy like the nerdy kid in school tries to avoid eye contact of the school bully on the playground.
i mean how can you be a man in such a high pressure job as that and have no backbone, what does he see when he looks in the mirror?
the standard in this league is utterly baffling, it's a job nobody wants to do, and rightly so. all footballers these days are cheats, and they're being fully protected to do so - no punishment whatsoever, they don't even get booked anymore. why not spend all day diving? you've got nothing to lose. the ref on thursday was perfect, let the game flow brilliantly, can't argue with any of the refs we've had in europa, week after week in the prem they're just utterly dire though.
I actually could see that one happening,his positioning every time we were in possession was atrocious,he was almost like an extra defender forHow should he have reacted to McCarthy? He was directly in the way of the ball, it was just a collision - and one Mason was at fault for.
