       M OLIVER - Man C v Man U

       Probably the easiest match ever he’s had to officiate.
       Only three cards all warranted and literally nothing else to do
       aside from awarding the last minute penalty for a foul on
       Martial.

       Straightforward match for Michael, helped by the one sided
       nature of the match.  That being said, he did what he had to
       well.  Great to see the two big matches of the weekend refereed
       extremely well by our two WC referees.

       Should probably have been more than 2 minutes added in second
       half - another reason for an independent timekeeper!

       I always believed there are 2 things certain in life they are
       death and taxes but there are now 4 things certain  , death,
       taxes  and weekly debates on time keeping and VAR in the Premier
       League 😉
       On a serious note Oliver can only referee what is in front of
       him , he let the game flow and stayed in the background

       Even as a United supporter I was pleased to see Oliver caution
       Dalot in the first minute.  Players seem to expect to get away
       with even a bad foul that early.
       I thought the ARs, or was it the same AR, did well with a couple
       of very tight offside decisions which were correct.
       I agree, it was a good weekend for our 2 WC referees.

       Excellent as usual from Oliver. He makes it look easy. Good
       decisions and all the yellow cards, and it’s nice to see a
       referee actually give a yellow card early and not just allow it
       because it’s early.
       Excellent decision making and no fuss. Players clearly respect
       him.
       Good to see him play on when Varane was lying down and Fernandes
       was having a moan (as per usual!) rather than blow up.
       He is just a class above the other referees bar Taylor (who he
       is still better than)

       You're in good company Hendo.  Dermot also referred to it as a
       Masterclass particularly praising the YC so early in the game.
       There was some comment though about only 2 minutes being added
       after the 90.
       Can we just clarify - is time expected to be added for goals
       scored, or only if there is excessive delay in the restart?
       Same with subs.
       Must admit I was expecting 4 minutes, but then United would be
       relieved they couldn't be subjected to more punishment

       The Laws say:
       Allowance is made by the referee in each half for all playing
       time lost in that half through ... any significant delay to a
       restart (e.g. goal celebrations).
       So no mandatory 30 seconds per goal that the pundits are so keen
       to tell us about.
       Saving United from more punishment?  They had scored the
       previous two goals.  Surely they were cut off in their prime
       when on a comeback  ;).

       Isn't that covered by "any significant delay to a restart (e.g.
       goal celebrations)"?
