       A MADLEY - Newcastle v Aston Villa

       Madley not popular one iota with the home fans after only
       cautioning Martinez for his mad dash from goal to clean out
       Almiron.
       The calls for a red are not justified IMO as he was no where
       near DOGSO territory. Clear yellow.
       Madley has done well in the first half.

       Madley seems to have toughened up over the summer - my last
       viewing of him was Arsenal v Brighton, where he was quite
       heavily criticised for being too lenient on foul play and
       dissent.  So far, I think he's been pretty spot on with his
       cards, including one to Guimaraes for waving an imaginary yellow
       card in his face, something that ought to be clamped down on
       more than it does.  I agree that yellow was correct for
       Martinez, nowhere near DOGSO.

       The wife said to me during the match the referee looks full of
       himself
       Looks like Madley has bulked up a bit, looks a bit more of the
       Rob Jones build anyone think?

       With my far from perfect eyesight, I have to say from the TV
       pictures, a couple of the Newcastle goals did look offside.  The
       2nd and 4th I think.
       Maybe the angles were deceptive or I was just picking out the
       wrong shirts!  For the first of those, (i.e. 2nd Newcastle
       goal), the scorer looked offside when the initial cross / free
       kick came in but not when the ball was played from which he
       scored. That wouldn't be a new phase of play, would it?
       As I say, probably just my eyes but just curious how others saw
       them.

       I hate seeing fouls like that which have nothing to do with the
       ball and are often referred to as "taking one for the team".  It
       could be argued in that instance that totally ignoring the ball,
       grabbing a player round the body and chucking him to the ground
       is violent conduct??

       My only criticism of Andy Madley (which can also be said of some
       other Referees to be fair) is his general positioning. In my
       opinion, he doesn't go wide enough when an attacking move or
       general play develops on the left wing. He tends to stick
       towards the middle of the pitch and has to make decisions from a
       greater distance as a result.
