Big-6 syndrome for us all to see. It’s not the free kicks he gave but the inconsistency over his use of cards.

I thought he was alright to be fair. Pretty consistent in his decision making and Omari’s aside I thought his yellows were about right. Burns was lucky to not get a 2nd for a clear deliberate handball from where I was sat.

The best team won, I don’t think the ref influenced the outcome at all which is all you can really ask for.

Was gonna, but too lazy to get off sofa to do, set up a poll on how many fouls Diaz would have to commit before he was finally given a yellow - 10? 20?

Broadly fair. Though how Diaz escaped a yellow for repeated cynical fouling, whilst Omari got one for a 50/50 is beyond me.

I didn’t think Omari’s was even a foul from where I was sat tbh, but to get a yellow for that was astonishing.

Didn't get anything big wrong but got lost in the detail of small decisions.

Learning the offside rule would benefit a few of our squad.

I know that was then, but it could be again..

Hutchinson went flying in & didn't get the ball. Probably the most blatant of Town's 3 yellows. Woolfenden did pull a player back, which is supposed to be an automatic yellow. Burns's was harsh, which might have played a part in his decision not to give him a second yellow for cynical handball.

Thought he was poor. Definitely was looking to stop the enthusiasm of the new boys to the circus, hence three yellows on our guys for first offences. Then proceeded to obstruct our attack in a central position. Let them gain miles on throw ins. Took him more than 90 minutes to book one of theirs.

He was over zealous, but not really inconsistent. Liverpool players just had a better handle on what they could get away with.

Agree, we need to be more streetwise in terms of that and Premier League refs, Liverpool knew exactly how to tread that line.

I’ve not seen a replay of it admittedly, but I thought Omari was in control, seemed to lead with his right foot and win the ball to me. I didn’t think it was out of control or particularly over zealous but would like to see it again.

Chambo on the radio seemed to think he'd got them right too so I'm happy to go with that.

That's how I saw it and just before the first yellow you could see the ref warning Morsy about what he saw as persistent fouling by several players. It continued and the yellows came out. Hutchinson was late and mistimed.

Slot suggested we were aggressive but in a good way which was about right.

Mostly agree. Thought Woolfy's was a bit harsh. Yes probably a yellow but 4 minutes in on his Premier League debut in a white hot atmosphere. The ref should perhaps given him a stern warning so early on in the game.

The issue is that persistent fouling was fine if you were called Diaz, but 2 fouls warranted a warning for Morsy.

Burns’s handball was right in front of me. Definitely got away with that and a second yellow. No idea what he was thinking.

My gripe with the ref is that he spoke to Morsy about our persistent fouling early on and then booked someone (can’t remember exactly who) next foul. That’s fair enough. But a couple of Liverpool players had been persistently fouling too as the game went on and he did nothing until late on.

Tbf, if hadn’t been for offside it looked like he was going to give us a penalty

No, he was decent, we just showed a lack of experience at this level with our challenges.

Too easy to blame the ref all the time.

Yup I agree , those of us who have watched Sky sports over the years will have noted the big club bias in previous seasons and its something we will have to contend with I'm afraid . Not that the Ref had a bad game but a couple of inconsistent bookings spoilt his performance.

I was talking to Chris Kiwomya after the game and he said he was one of the referee assessment people for the PL today. He is a very fair assessor and very insightful.

From being in the stand as fan to speaking to a pro with balance was good.

Top man as always. So much positive energy.

Ref was pretty good.

Gave us plenty of clear fouls. Our bookings were all bookings really but the only thing I feel he missed was Liverpool had players who consistently fouled and should have been warned / booked.

He made both teams move the ball back a few yards, both take throws from the right place. Didn’t see any bias really. Just that he gives a yellow for a yellow but not a yellow for persistent fouls.

I think for the most part our yellows were pretty much spot on. How on earth thier player escaped a yellow for pulling Morsy's shirt mid way through the second half when he was away is a disgrace.
