Pity the asst. ref. at Everton didn’t also notice that during the match the Everton goalkeeper stepped out of his box with the ball. Should have been off.

And what about when a ‘boro player went through the back of Modric after he played the ball…the ref rightly waved play on but never went back to book the player, ramifications of that may have impacted on the game! Are you really going to spend the whole season reviewing every refereeing decision (as even the innocuous decisions can have an overall impact)…seriously you guys must have TMFFT (too much free f’ing time!)

Middlesbrough were also lucky just before Mido scored their second. Spurs were attacking and ruled to have taken the ball out which resulted in a Boro throw. The linesman only gave this after all the home fans stood up and started giving him abuse NOT respect!

And what about the linesmans poor decision against Tottenham that lead to Boro’s second goal? Giving Boro a thrown-in when the ball was still in play just because some Boro fans yelled and he crapped himself?
