Mr Lenient on actual fouling but the slightest bit of perceived timewasting and his cards are out like confetti. Total clown. We've had worse though...a lot worse.
I don't think Cullen was his biggest fan either :D

Watched on tv too
But will give an opinion absolute shite 2 stonewall penalty appeals missed. Multiple fouls ignored another pub league ref totally out of his depth

Total homer, right from the start when he twice penalised Robert’s for doing nothing wrong.
Two cast iron penalties in ninety seconds.
Penalised Cullen for cleanly winning the ball.
The list could go on.
Utterly useless.

Absolutely pathetic, you could see how his performance would pan out after about 10 minutes. The only thing more rancid on the night was the camera work

Completely awful, how that wasn’t a penalty I’ll never know. Seemed a right arrogant tosser too. Gave us nothing all night.

I watched on TV so cannot score but I have to question the impartiality of the thing with the whistle last night. Does he carry a grudge against Burnley? From his utterly one sided display I really feel this thing should not be let near a Burnley match ever again. He was that bad.

He was crap. Just as bad as the penalty decisions was not at least booking the Cardiff player for pushing CJ in mid air so he clashed heads with an opponent. Really dangerous.

An absolute masterclass of buffoonery, and bell endery. Totally clueless, and seemed to come down regularly in favour of the home side with anything remotely dubious. File alongside 80% of the muppets we’ve had to endure this season. With no VAR, they get away with making it up as they go along. Even Stevie Wonder knew it was a penalty.
