Good grief - Burnley get Kitchen for a fifth time this season.
What on earth have we done to deserve this?

A decent game for Langford on Friday night - two in form teams
nearer the top.
Another game for Ruebyn Ricardo and Ben Toner has one at Elland
Road
I believe that’s a first league game for Dan Cook on the line
since his return from injury too

I’d agree it’s excessive but it does sometimes happen. Oliver
has had Man City a lot this season (about 5 times before new
year) and last season in the championship, Ipswich had Josh
Smith 6 times (not like that bothered me though)

I don't think Burnley fans would mind if he was OK but he's been
appalling in those games.

I think appalling is very unfair. In your last game he failed to
give a penalty to Burnley which upset the locals, but it was a
terrific decision justifying his status. And he handled the
alleged racist abuse well. Furthermore, he wouldn't get Burnley
a fifth time if he was deemed poor by assessors.

The penalty decision was correct although I'm not sure how he
saw it from his position, but my view was that he had another
absolutely shocking game as he'd done in previous Burnley games.
Yes, he did handle the incident well, and Burnley publicly
thanked him for that, but otherwise I can find nothing to
commend him from the games he's had.

It probably looks like I come on here to give my opinion on Ward
or Kitchen but when you’ve had them 10 times out of 39 games it
will look that way.
Kitchen with a typically poor performance again today with a lot
of his decisions absolutely bewildering. I do not see how he is
being spoken about promotion to SG1 before both Smith’s &
Donohue as a minimum. He delays his decisions to an extent today
he gave a foul 15 seconds after it was committed. If being
promoted to the premier league means we get more of Andrew
Kitchen, I’m happy to stay in the championship.
Interesting he hasn’t done a Leeds game yet this year, surely
they are due him.
