The Mike Dean Show

[sitwell]

Or is it the worlds most anal referee ?

 

[beatific blade]

If we beat Arsenal on Monday it would be great to hear “are you Tranmere in disguise??”

Although we’d need to be 4-0 up with 1 min to go to be safe after Dean gives them 3 late penalties.

WHAT a player

Will we ever see the like of him again?

Should do if you have a wander up to Concord Park on Sunday morning....

 

[KoppedOff]

Cough

I do think he’s one of the few that would actually have the balls to call a big decision in our favour should the moment arise

“United love fucking Tranmere, love fucking Traaaaanmere”

In all seriousness; thought he was good tonight.

 

[Woodwaaard]

He was 1st class tonight

 

[CaptainMorgans]

He was 1st class tonight

He missed a first half penalty for them. He was also too card happy for me. But outside of that he got most decisions spot on.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Great performance by the lads tonight, that's all.

 

[Nelson1889]

He wasn't as bad as I imagined he would be. Let the game flow for the most part, brought play back when there wasn't a clear advantage for both teams and got the card out when it was warranted. For the stick he gets he's better than most in England

 

[Deadly_D'Jaffo]

Always been a bit biased towards us if anything.

Mike Dean

He missed a first half penalty for them. He was also too card happy for me. But outside of that he got most decisions spot on.

I agree too quick to book Fleck after 6 minutes, he won the fkin ball. That decision made Flecks performance all the more remarkable over the next 84 minutes plus. Deans best decision was the Arsenal players simulation in the penalty area. He was only a yard away and got it spot on.

 

[Guesty]

He was pretty good, I thought. Played excellent advantages for both sides.

The flamboyance with which he pointed to our Goal Kick right at the end was hilarious.

Nope he didn’t miss a penalty tonight he called it perfect

 

[ilovesufc]

I thought he was excellent tonight. Best reffing I've seen all season so far. Absolutely didn't fall for Arsenals diving but kept it even by not falling for Didsys either. Got both possible pen calls correct, played advantage at the right times.

Beat me too it, that was brilliant, he's wasted refereeing, he should be on stage, soooo theatrical

 

[coaxingstar71]

Thought he was generally good. The only bit that pissed me off was staright after Fleck getting a yellow for a fair tackle, one of theirs went right through the back of Bash and got fuck all.

 

[Superblades]

His control was first class. He gave a free kick, player hit the ball to him and he just stopped it dead first touch.

He didn’t miss a penalty for them at all, fantastic decision

 

[Akinbiyi]

Much a worry about nothing.

Best ref so far.

 

[Hunter_999]

He's reyt enough is ar Mike.

Prescient quote this one was.

 

[Hodgesleftpeg]

He didn’t miss a penalty for them at all, fantastic decision

He did miss a penalty for them,

a blatant shirt pull from a corner

shame

If it was that blatant VAR would have given it

 

[Hodgesleftpeg]

If it was that blatant VAR would have given it

A bit like the one for Watford on Saturday that the ref didn’t give and it was right in front of the camera?

VAR -haven’t given a penalty decision all season as far as I’m aware.

 

[Booker4]

Take a bow Mike; superb and how every ref should be. A proper football man too.

 

[Iceybabey]

He was alryt tonight. However, anyone else think when he blew for their lads dive he sort of looked towards the penalty spot for like a split second as though to add a lil drama to the situation? If you get me?

 

[metalblade]

I expected quite a few cards from Mike Dean and thought he was harsh on Fleck but otherwise he was pretty much spot on. Their shouts for penalties were a joke, well done for booking the diving twats.

 

[Toronto Blade]

Baldock was knocked over from behind in their box and it was not shoulder to shoulder. As well as a harsh yellow on Fleck where he won the ball with a good tackle. I thought we were in for a tough afternoon after that early yellow on Fleck but Dean did well overall.

 

[Jon Bon II]

Credit where credit's due. Top reffing performance from Dean I thought. Couldn't fault him, not even for Fleck's yellow. Bettered only by the team's performance.

 

[Sean Thornton]

That's because they can't.

 

[Hodgesleftpeg]

That's because they can't.

Ok, maybe I should have rephrased my answer better..I was only responding to post 47.

As far as I’m aware, the VAR hasn’t asked the referee to look at any incident which could result in a penalty this season.

my point to the original post still stands, he missed a blatant penalty for them for shirt pulling.

 

[Captain]

Thought he was excellent tonight, obviously aware of”cheating Arsenal antics , rightly booked there Tom Daley impressionist ( booked Goldie too)
Game flowed well,there whinging on about shirt pulling, never a pen.
Great atmosphere, brilliant 3 points, superb fitness levels from our boys, Mousse still needs improve his and McBurnie well!
