Thirsty Lizard 3,177 Posted October 22, 2011 Thought he had an excellent game in general and didn''t get fooled by any of Suarez''s diving and theatrics - BUT - what was he doing with his time-keeping? He signalled 1 minute extra time at the end of the first half and Bellamy scored nearly two minutes into extra time. Then he gives three minutes extra time at the end of the second half - and even allowing 30 seconds for Croft coming on we''re still playing nearly five minutes into extra time. In the extra minute that shouldn''t have been played Liverpool very nearly scored. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
211203 0 Posted October 22, 2011 Yes, and those two chances at the end, one was from a corner after he missed a blatant trip by Suarez on Barnett, the other was from a very dubious free kick to Liverpool. Just glad Carroll missed the header and TGF a quality save from Ruddy ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robert N. LiM 4,464 Posted October 23, 2011 I thought he was very generous to us. Lots of fouls around the edge of the box that could have been given but weren''t.Things even-ing themselves out after those first few games? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZLF 274 Posted October 23, 2011 Dalglish moaning suarez did not get enough protection; I think the ref got it right, most were dives and suarez was not at the end of any bad challenges for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
