Nonsense. Superb display from Oliver. Wouldn't be swayed by the baying hordes of Old Trafford. Two yellow cards for diving, at The Stretford End? Outstanding.
Yellow cards for diving are fine, yellow cards for tapping the ref on the shoulder immediately after being booked less so, it just wasn't necessary.
He didn't tap him on the shoulder he tugged the back of the ref's shirt. Red card for me!(having been a ref in a past life.)
^^^ This The only mistake Oliver made all night was to give that elf a second yellow and not a straight red.
Best reffing I've seen in a long time. If that was the baseline we'd see better behaviour from the players.
Noel Gallagher was taking the right piss out of Man Utd last night during the gig. Told the crowd it was 4-1 to Arsenal and half the room booed, ****ing great stuff. He dedicated a song called 'Dream On' to them anarl. Michael Oliver having a good performance is one of the harbingers of the Apocalypse, isn't it?

100% agree. Forget half n' half scarves or music after goals, the not celebrating against your old club trend is the worst thing about modern football. Fair enough if you're a legend, say Lampard against Chelsea, but I've never been more angry with a City scorer than i was with Danny Graham against Swansea. They bombed him out, he was only there a few years and then he'd broken a well publicised drought and he just ****ing shrugged his shoulders. It's not disrespecting your old fans or employers, it's disrespecting your current ones and basically saying he doesnt care if he's scored for us, he prefers his old club. **** shouldve been fined for that.
Arsenal deserved that. Could've been more if it wasn't for De Gae. Thought the ref got everything spot on. Tough decision doing it infront of the Stretford End. Arsenal will be too much for either Reading & Bradford. I expect the tv companies will be wanting a Liverpool v Arsenal final. If only Kieran Gibbs wasn't on the line for Bruce's header & it had made it 3-0. What could've been.
