Have to say that todays officials where very good, thought Lee Mason, the Referee had a very good game.
Makes a change from the crap we have seen over the season.
Great game, Stoke deserved the draw and with a bit of luck could have snatched all three points.
Proud to be a potter down Worcester way. ;D

Totally agree, after a few good performances he's now on my good referee list with only two others, Keith stroud and Rennie, the rest are all shit. FACT ;D

Not great, but one of the better refs we've had this season.

watching from the south stand early on one of our players got blatantly fouled near thie goal and he waved play on
half the southstand was sarcastically clapping every time we got the descision, just how it looked from there

He missed every one of Carragher's foul throws though, and the two tackles by Mascherano in the first half alone that were 2-footed jumps, the sort that Amdy faye got sent off for against Bolton. Neither of the tackles today made contact, but they were still made and nothing done or said.

Excellent ref...allowed some physical play, which we need to compete!

He was good and consistent but he did give Liverpool some soft freekicks around the area. Should have booked Gerrard and Torres for diving after he refused to give them freekicks and he was conned by Babel (?) when he booked Wilkinson.

Thought all his bookings where correct, Wilko's trip was deliberate and Matt's was slightly late. no complaints

On the whole he was ok. I found him lean too much toward Liverpool in first half but it evened out in second half.

I'm not at prem level as a referee but assessors tell all of us to be very very careful blowing up for diving. It's a minefield.

he was a very good referee i must say. I think they all need to tighten up and look out for foul throws more though. Liverpool did a few.

I Officiated at the top level during the early nineties, i have to say Officials today have a lot more help and back up than we ever had, and get paid a great deal more, ASSESSORS HAVE ALWAY BEEN THE CURSE OF REFEREEING.

I thought he did very well and was one of the first refs in ages not to have bought into the 'nasty Stoke' media hype. Would happily see him ref our games again.

Reffed us v Spurs and Hull if I remember rightly. Had a good game v Spurs where all decisions were correct, against Hull it appeared he felt a bit obliged to not give us anything after the 2 reds and 2 penos v Spurs but had a good game today

Liverpool hate him. He didn't favour them enough or give enough injury time or stop us taking throw ins.

good referee and not a poser like some of them.got most decisions right and thats all you can hope for.the linesman didnt do too well when 3 stoke plyers were all standing offside which then resulted in delaps shot off the crossbar.criminal decision and nealry cost liverpool a goal.
