       It’s not an excuse, it’s a rank bad decision from Coote and team
       which shouldn’t have happened. I was referring to Tomiyasu who
       might reflect that cheap and wholly unnecessary yellow cards
       always put you at risk from a howler from an official. It
       shouldn’t happen, but occasionally like tonight it does.

       Even the first yellow was wrong, in my opinion.
       "Referees must caution players who delay the restart of play by:
       appearing to take a throw-in but suddenly leaving it to a
       team-mate to take"
       Havertz had the ball for twice as long as Tomiyasu. Several
       throw-ins took longer than the 7 or 8 seconds Tomiyasu took to
       take his.
       It's a nonsense to not let VAR advise on an erroneous red card,
       whether from a second yellow or straight red.

       Tomiyasu can thank Havertz for his first caution, I agree that
       he didn't take a long time in taking it, but Havertz grabbed the
       ball and held it before moving away.  Added to this Coote had
       just very publicly warned Arsenal for taking too long on a goal
       kick, it almost became a bit of a team caution.
       The second one is a bit soft, but once he gives the free kick it
       can only be a caution.  Totally agree on consistency in that he
       didn't caution Havertz almost immediately after for a blatant
       shirt hold, but we need to remember that the offence isn't shirt
       holding, it is stopping a promising attack.  For the earlier one
       where Ayew held an opponent back, I'm not sure it stopped a
       promising attack as the attacker was heading straight into
       opponents.

       A pretty average performance from a quite frankly average
       referee. IMO both yellows were harsh considering how the game
       went, the 2nd yellow for me isn’t even a foul let alone a yellow
       card. Only thing he got right was the pen for arsenal.
       A lot of bemusing decisions and total lack of consistency
       throughout

       What happened at the end of the game? My information was that an
       Arsenal player was booked in the 7 minutes of added time for
       kicking the ball away and yet the whistle went dead on 97.00
       without any additional time being added for this timewasting.
       Apparently Ramsdale also had the ball in his hands from around
       96.40 for well over 6 seconds before kicking it at which point
       Coote blew for full time?

       "frankly average" ??  You are being far too generous.  A referee
       who has never impressed at any level but has been regularly
       promoted regardless. It must be great to have a lot support from
       the various FA Offices.

       To open the discussion up slightly… Howard Webb has a big
       problem to resolve in his first few weeks in situe.
       Hooper, Coote, Salisbury, Bramall and Bond have produced sub
       standard offerings this season thus far, and given that Hooper
       and Salisbury were banished out of the second round of
       appointments… where does Webb go now?

       I agree , personally I think the standard of refereeing this
       season by the SG1 has been low , the only standouts for the
       right reasons are Brooks and Jones , sadly the rest just haven’t
       hit the ground running yet

       In a bid to defend the dreadful Coote, you seem to have almost
       introduced a new concept - the team caution. Can't find anything
       in the Laws to justify this.

       ...............hence the expression "as bad as a Coote"; I
       think it's something like that anyway.

       Tbh I think Webb has scored an own goal by trying to be so
       "public" with what he is doing. I understand he wants to help
       people's understanding of how decisions are reached and try to
       add a level of transparency and has given lots of public
       interviews in papers & on TV and has issued public apologies to
       clubs where he feels it is necessary.
       His problem is that the SG1 officials are currently so
       inconsistent at best (completely sub-standard at worst) that to
       the general public & football community he is actually starting
       to look like a bit of a fool. On a regular basis we have
       interviews about what they are trying to do and he spends time
       trying to "educate" fans, media etc on how the rules work/are
       applied - but at the same time he is making almost weekly
       apologies because the officials cannot back up his words with
       their performances on the pitch. At some stage the whole thing
       just becomes a bit farcical and he will look completely foolish
       (if we aren't there already).
       I do like Howard Webb and I think greater media exposure in the
       longer term would be a good thing - but his absolute number one
       priority, bar none, is to improve the standard of officiating.
       We are coming up shortly to a year in charge for Webb and he and
       his team have also had a full pre season in a multi million
       pound facility with the all fitness, technology, training and
       analysis you could think of - and early indications show there
       has been no improvement whatsoever.
