We now have a new leader with D.Webb from the Swansea game edging it over J.Smith who has been leader all season, although nowhere near as many voters.
G.Scott at WBA the worst by far we have had to put up with.
Note we have a PL ref in charge tonight.

Pawson may have a big job on his hands tonight, a huge passionate crowd at Elland Road, with plenty on the line.
Good luck pal, you may need it.

I think he was the ref who allowed Klipperty to get in his ear and sent Pascal off .... I could be wrong mindBarlow Boy wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 10:46 am Pawson may have a big job on his hands tonight, a huge passionate crowd at Elland Road, with plenty on the line.

You’re right Swannie, although I had to google it (I don’t have your excellent memory ).

Agree Swannie.
I was absolutely livid that day, I could see from where I was in the ground it was just an accident. To Elliott’s credit, he came out afterwards and said the same.

But to the shame of the PL, the ref and trampy klopp he got away with it, Pawson owes us tonight.

Got a few things wrong, but he was nowhere as bad as some refs wev'e had this season.

A bit petty for me, but overall no massive complaints.

2/10 Got so much wrong. He would have probably got more right if he just guessed at everything, he probably did. Can't blame him for the offside goal though as that comes down to the linesman's flag.

He did get a lot wrong, especially the booking for Gnonto.
Like you say, not his fault for the offside, but f**k leicester

The fact that many of his miserable calls were to out benefit doesn't mean he wasn't awful.

We give them stick, but it's a thankless job being a ref. Thought he was a bit picky, but did alright. 6/10
