Was no surprise West Brom got a penalty today you only have to look at Steve Martins record to see if he gets a chance he will give one against us.
What are the odds of this happening in the last 5 matches he has refs us.
Today, dubious penalty even Steve Bruce thought it was soft.
Sept 21 Luton 5-0 gives a penalty in the 3rd minute when the foul was 2 yards outside the box.
Mar 21 Luton 2-0 gives penalty against McFadzean and send him off for the ball hitting his shoulder.
Feb 21 Cov 2 Brentford 0 waves play on when Biamou is founded in the box only gives it as the linesman is frantically waving his flag.
Sept 20 gives dubious penalty against McFadzean as the QPR player is running out of the box.
In this time he has been the ref a total of 41 matches The Championship given a total of 10 penalties. Of which 50% have involved a City match. So if all the penalties he has given 40 are against 1 team yet that 1 team have only been involved in 12% of the games he had been involved.
Interesting Martin is from Staffordshire makes you wonder living so close does he have a vendetta against city. Think this could be more than a coincidence.

I’ve lost track of who’s on the wind up. If you were fixing a game I doubt you’d wait until the 96th minute

it was difficult to tell live if it was a pen or not.
the ref certainly gave them everything in the last 10mins and it appeared he couldn’t wait to point to the spot

The worst thing he did was allow the match to continue when a Coventry fan had collapsed in that shite hole away end at Luton.

The Coventry back 3 were clearly distressed and looking behind and he played the game on and Luton scored 2/3 goals.

He was very poor again today. Will there be a consequence for him or the cheat at the end today of course not.

Not suggesting he was trying to fix any of these games just that he had a cognitive bias against Coventry. I doubt any referee can match these figures or anywhere near them.

Even the West Brom coms were complaining about him! Strangely quiet over that massive over simulation though!

I can’t stand him. Seems so ignorant. I’m not one for players berating refs, but a couple of times yesterday players tried to talk to him and he didn’t even look at them. They demand respect but show absolutely none themselves. Much like Luton earlier this season, he couldn’t wait to give it. Whistle to mouth and started sprinting towards the spot before the player had even touched the ground.

They were fucking awful at comms. We mock Clive Eakin and CWR but they are on another level compared to the Baggies comms blokes.

The ex-WBA football player was Andy Johnson.
Now i know there will be some bias...that's accepted, but having listened to 2 commentaries recently (Forest-Steve Sutton and now Andy Johnson-WBA), crikey they are literally watching a different game...all 50/50s become 80/20s.
In the WBA game they were even calling for the referee to be removed from the league list....that is until he gave them a last minute penalty

It was a tackle from behind which is a foul, very soft & the Albion player looking for it but Rose gave the ref a decision to make. Very poor official though.he must be on thin ice re staying on the EFL list, the two West Brom commentators were on his case most the match.

just because it is from behind doesn't make it a foul

correct - a Good tackle from behind is just that - however if you are playing through the player it is a foul, and I think that is what happened , albeit was one of those where he felt contact and died
