Wont score to avoid distorting the ratings but he had absolutely 0 control of the game for either side. The amount of delayed decisions took so much time out of the game too.

The Stoke fans constant abuse of him did its job when he bottled the red card for the number 2.

Absolutely dire, missed the clear penalty, should have red carded one of their players, fell for their spoiling tactics.

Pretty much what I expected.

Tried to let the game flow in awful conditions.
Should have been a second yellow for their player
Hannibal sending off was correct
It was definitely not a penalty

The Stoke tactic of abusing the ref by the name was quite effective. He bottled a pen and a definite second yellow for the **** at right back. Cannon should have been booked. Keeper should have been booked for time wasting.

A- 5 (just for the red)
B- 4
C- 12
D- 2. Useless

Stoke fans got it absolutely bang on with their description of him.

Is that the third time now he has reffed us this season. An absolute clown. Worst at this level.

The guy wouldn’t have been on the pitch if the ref had given him a 2nd yellow.

Not at game so won't score. But I thought he caused his own issues today. Its fine letting the game flow. But he let players get away with too much. And then didn't give a 2nd yellow which possibly ultimately led to Hannibal acting like the clown that we all know he can be. No issues with the red. But why did he then give a free kick? Didn't look like he gave one initially and the ball was out of play for the stamp. Should have been a throw in

Shiit seems to follow this guy about.
What a bad referee he is. Sounds like Stoke have history with him too !

Their keeper or ours?

Absolutely rancid. No understanding of football, no understanding of advantage. Scared to give any of their players a second yellow or a red. The only positive for him was he got the Hannibal red card right. Another disgrace to the profession.

We've had a lot worse at the Turf. Right back should have been booked first half for the foul on Anthony when he pulled him back off the ball, so would have been off for second yellow before our red. It wasn't a penalty. It was a red. My only complaint was he had no idea of how to let the game flow and no consistency in much of his decision making. But in all honesty can't say he had a direct bearing on the result.

Both. Trafford's unwillingness to read the game is annoying.

Funny how theyre like 5's or 20's

I (TV) thought he had a great game. Not a lot to ref. Probably bottled the second yellow on their shirt pulling right back.

I'd have given him high marks personally, I liked the flow.

Horrendous performance. There were assaults, seen by ref and totally ignored. He should be suspended.
