I agree. He really let the game flow, and thats why it was so exciting

[......and Smith must score. 1,589]

Thought he was one of the best refs I''ve seen.Let the game flow nicely and wasn''t taken in when players clearly just fell over.....

[Hannibal 0]

Agreed.

[Felixfan 53]

Excellent refereeing - but to be fair both sides contributed to a clean open game.

[Bovril 264]

Excellent performance, let the game flow and this was evident with the first yellow card being shown very late on.

No particularly big decisions or nasty situations to deal with but let the players take centre stage.

[birchfest 401]

One yellow for a bad tackle and then two for ours for time wasting, was a great display because we barely noticed he was there!

[Chelmsford Canary 0]

Have to agree, he was excellent. Never liked him before.

Just let the game flow, and the only yellow cards came in last 5-10 mins

[Scooby 0]

Very true. I remember thinking, half way through the second half, that I could hardly remember him giving a free kick. It seemed that after a while the players cottoned on and stopped falling over.

Excellent refereeing display.

[Canary Man of Kent 0]

I think the first free kick we conceded was after 80 minutes.

 

We were given a couple in the first half.

[Beauseant 0]

Excellent referee. Stood for no nonsense (good to see Holt''s theatrics treated with disdain) and let the game flow.

[GJP 79]

Had a very good game.

 

Though, actually, despite people criticising Holt for his antics when he came on, Chris Foy did actually get some of those wrong and there should definitely have been some fouls given in Holt''s favour. Though that may have just been through mental and physical tiredness as you could see Foy was struggling a bit with the pace towards the end.

 

[Tim Allman 1]

In the first couple of minutes Sessegnon  threw himself over / acted "professionally / was tackled  and lost the ball and Foy was having none of it, and this good decision making continued throughout the game. There was one instance towards the end of the game where Holty (I think) made no effort to get the ball and let himself get a knock fron the Sunderland centre back who was going for the ball and he gave the free kick to Sunderland which I thought was the right decision, maybe that''s one of the instances Beausant is referring to.

 

I thought he was excellent, and we hardly noticed him.

Today''s ref is Chis Foy. Looks like we liked him a lot when he reffed the Sunderland game earlier this season. He also gave the ludicrous decision when he sent off Kompany in the Man City v Man Utd cup game. Lets hope he gives a good performance today and we''re not talking about him like the refs in our last two games.

[Baldyboy 1]

thought he was excellent again today!!!

[Mr Jenkins 0]

Pretty good performance, got it wrong with the Tevez booking though! Not too worried about that one.[:)]

[Trent Canary 0]

Yeah aside from a couple of early decisions that went our way, he had a very good game.

[Aggy 944]

It''s hard for refs. Had we held City to a draw, he would have been crucified for the decision not to award Tevez a penalty and instead book him. As it is, that didn''t matter in the end, so it is easily overlooked, and we can say that the rest of the game he was pretty decent.

But that "pretty decent" rating could have been turned around to see him having cost Man City the title, and all the furor that would have come with such a thing, had they not gone on to win the game despite his error.

[Tim Allman 1]

Liked it went he booked Nasri for a cynical foul on Bennett a couple of minutes after it happened when the ball finally went out of play. Thought he was a decent ref today.

[Mister Chops 7]

Chris Foy >> Small Boy >> Paul Moy.

[SwindonCanary 457]

And guess who''s ref on Saturday !

[Yobocop 1,441]

Decent ref

After today''s game?

No thanks

[Highland Canary 78]

Thought he had a reasonable game today. Knowing our luck it will be Mr Friend next.

[ricardo 8,033]

[quote user="baldyboy"]thought he was excellent again today!!![/quote]Not the view from the Barclay and Snakepit, unless you were deaf of course.I thought he was very slow with the whistle and reluctant to make any decision in a controversial area. He was especially lenient with pushing and holding from corners and freekicks. When defenders know it goes unpunished its no surprise they continue to do it.

[Mister Chops 7]

You choose....Chris Foy, Paul Moy or a Small Boy?
