Craig Pawson ref for Saturday

Wed Sep 25, 2013 5:34 pm

Only his second ever Prem game (his first was 2nd March last season).

Mainly reffed Championship and League 1&2 games. The last game he reffed us in was our 3-0 win over Blackburn last season.

Don't know a lot about him but he can't be worse than Clattenburg the clown! If he's a referee who has worked his way up the league through good displays, hopefully he will be a good, fair ref.

He was decent from what I remember v Blackburn apart from when Danny Murphy kicked Turner in the face 2 yards inside the area and it was give as a free kick.

Oh dear! Everyone could see that was comfortably in the box and I was outraged the officials bottled it and only gave us a free kick! I have no hope for this referee whatsoever because of that one decision alone! Hopefully the referee will be rubbish for Fulham more than rubbish for us, as if he can't tell the difference between 2 yards inside the box and outside the box, I can see him getting some crucial decisions wrong, especially as he will be stepping up to the increased pace of the Premiership.

I'm glad the Fulham crowd aren't exactly loud to put pressure on him to make decisions to be honest aswell.

Me too mate. I just did a search and found a thread with an image of the penalty that wasn't given. Our referee this Saturday couldn't spot this! :shock:

To be fair thinking about it, he may not have had a great view and I think I remember him consulting his linesman before awarding the free-kick instead of a penalty. That's still no excuse for missing a blatantly obvious penalty mind. Hopefully there will be no talking points about him this Saturday, although as long as any dodgy decisions go in our favour, who cares! :lol:

I'll be more than happy if the odd dodgey decision here and there goes our way! :lol:
