Take a bow Paul Tierney. A masterclass in how to ref a game. Let the game flow and got all the decisions right. No bookings, just did his job. Makes a nice change
agree.

He reffed well, not disputing that.
But if we had lost, the NSC anti ref brigade would have been out in force berating him for the 50/50 tussle where Hemed went down just outside the box right on half time!
Watford are a horrible team. Niggley, physical and whiny. He reffed almost as well as he could, though, as @Icy Gull said he missed a number of attempted stranglings by both teams. As I said to @scoffers if I'd known wrapping your arms round someone and throwing them off the ball was legal I'd have employed it throughout my Sunday League and 5-a-side career.

The corner in question.
I will say one thing though he didn't give in to any of the clowning around by Watford players ..but was a tad surprised Watson wasn't shown the yellow
