       I can't comment on the rest but the foul call in this incident
       seems clearly correct. York player gets goalside and the
       defender holds him (by the arm or shoulder). I'm sure closer
       replays would reveal that more clearly.
       Then, you can argue about the likelihood of the attacker
       controlling the ball and hence DOGSO; besides the 'surprises are
       for birthdays and Christmases' style of refereeing (which can be
       useful in some scenarios but generally leads to rather weak
       officiating imo), I don't find this decision thaaaat
       catastrophic - personally.

       Each to their own! I don’t think there’s enough in it but agree
       it’s hard to tell definitively with the one “broadcast” angle.

       Have you watched all of the games?  In the season I got promoted
       from L4 to L3 I had 11 red cards in 14 games and something like
       70 yellows.  I finished top on both observer and club marks, so
       was obviously doing something right.  You can only referee what
       is put in front of you, the number of yellow and red cards
       cannot be an indicator of your performance.

       Or Mr E J Parker from Preston. The referee who made Kettle look
       lenient.

       Don't joke about things like that; your post will get a
       'dislike'. Black humour seems to be lacking in these parts
       recently.

       I once had to get between two police officers to stop them
       thumping each other in a game between two different forces.  Not
       a position I ever expected to find myself in.  Goodness only
       knows what the repercussions might have been for them if they
       had succeeded.

       If he's worse than Ed Duckworth (card-happy and no empathy for
