Just wondering what that is based on. Is it longevity of service or that he's been reasonably kind in games involving us? I know there are poor, inconsistent referees around but there's nothing unusual about that. It's always been the case. Perhaps a poor decision against us tomorrow might temper some views about him.

H'e always seemed a decent ref to me. Wasn't he the one who upset Chelsea and Moaninho that time we drew down there too ?

He hasn't exactly got a lot to beat.

He was. All his previous Burnley games are listed at the link.

Atkinson for me is the best referee and I rate Michael Oliver too

I agree there is some right dross refereeing atm
