       One of the rare instances where adding more time on is a
       complete waste and lacking common sense. For a game that is 9-0
       against 9 men who just want the game to finish, what would be
       the point in adding on 6-7 minutes? It’s just silly

       Or how many people had a bet on 10-0!  :D
       When Liverpool beat Palace 7-0 in December, there were 4 goals
       and 6 substitutions in the second half yet Jon Moss only added 1
       minute on - not that anyone seemed bothered.

       Lee Mason won't have any teams left to referee soon!
       I hope the PGMO/PL don't take too much notice of it. When you
       lose 9-0, you can't put too much blame on the referee - and I
       don't really know what specifically Lee Mason has done wrong!

       Well said!  I have been saying the same thing for ages.  We keep
       hearing that a player 'felt contact'  so he 'had the right to go
       down'.  This nonsense is exactly what is wrong with the game at
       top level.  But referees subscribe to it, when they should
       actually be punishing the players who throw themselves to the
       floor after the slightest brush.  I absolutely despair at some
       of the penalties that are awarded when it is patently obvious
       the player is simply trying to deceive the referee.

       Lee was referee when they played Villa when they didn't get the
       penalty for the Cash handball and also had the goal disallowed
       for offside. Mike Dean was on VAR.
       Last night Mike was referee and Lee Mason was 4th officials so
       he perhaps didn't answer any questions which they  asked of him
       ;D

       1 yellow card given in the NBI last night and another in the
       early game today for diving. Love too see it. Also a foul was
       given after a tackle, which was a foul, but the striker stayed
       on his feet and tried his hardest to retain the ball in the
       current game on. Ref waited a split second to see if he would
       retain the ball, as soon as he didn't he blew and gave the foul.
       I dread the introduction of VAR next season to ruin our
       imperfect but enjoyable game.

       and lacking in common sense to play a League game to it's full

       I'm afraid this is just another example to prove that our

       time accurately. The sooner this simple but important task is
       given to someone else, the better.

       I was involved in a cup tie where the home team won very
       comfortably, with a score that actually equalled their club
       highest. When I only added 1 minute at the end, instead of
       probably 3 or 4 to play I was berated by the manager at the end.
       First time I have reported a winning manager.
       However, it transpired that the players and management would
       have received a bonus had they set a new record.
       Play to correct amount of time and you cannot be criticised.

       Bednarek and David Luiz did not receive red cards for trying to
       stop committing fouls.  They received them for failing to avoid
       making contact with opponents who had obvious goalscoring
       opportunities.  The contacts were careless and therefore fouls.

       The "ying" to this "yang", however, is that referees do have to
       give fouls where they are committed but the player does not go
       down.  They are not doing this at the moment, so remain
       susceptible to the flawed (but very plausible) argument that a
       player has to "go down" to get a free kick / penalty.
