It was weird, he looked away and paused then turned back roundWas the delay in giving the penalty down to checking with the linesman?
He looked like he wasn't going to give it and it seemed to take a second or two before then committing.

That got mentioned on the radio. Sounded funny. Did their player jump?Loved it when one of their players disagreed with one of his decisions.
His reaction was to blow the whistle as loud as possible in the players ear and frightening the life out of him
Classic
On the highlights he can be seen talking into his mouth piece so I would say he had a quick consultation then gave it.Was the delay in giving the penalty down to checking with the linesman?

OK. What's your number?Jump, not wrong their
At first I thought he shit himself.
I use a whistle down the phone to piss off cold callers. They never ring back.
Try it.

It's you is it who ignores me when I phone.

He wouldn’t be checking with the assistant referee as he was on the far side of it. No way it would be a credible decision if that was the case.Was the delay in giving the penalty down to checking with the linesman?

What I don't get is the game was still active when he turned away wasn't it?The problem we have these days that every one wants an instant decision. What the referee done Saturday was give himself a bit of thinking time. And come up with the right decision. Just because he turned away from play was insignificant, He got it spot on.
Refereed the game very well. Hope we have again this season
Think he was listening to CWR, Eakin thought it was a penalty, So he changed his mind and gave it.
Thanks Clive
Unlikely as Eakin probably said it was a Portsmouth defender
good old darren
