I can understand a referee making a mistake in real time on the pitch but watching the video review??? EPL referees are below standard in their knowledge of and application of the rules. Dean in particular is awful
@Gerard Smith: knowledge and application. You’d be more worried about his eyesight ha
@Gerard Smith: he was brutal as a ref so why should it change
Mike Dean slaughters chickens
