[Albion] Swansea (Mike dean)

[Eddiespearritt]

He also did ok at the Southampton away game. I thought for the first few minutes he was trying to focus on his relationship with Albion fans - he ignored a very early heavy tackle by Dale Stephens which could and should have been a foul - and gave the Solly March pen which (in the stadium) looked a bit soft - although on TV later I thought it looked more solid. Many referees would have let play go on though, with that one. I think he's fully aware that he has few friends amongst Albion fans, and possibly this will continue to work in our favour.

He ref'd the away game at Swansea as well. I'd take the same result...

Away win?

Of course, it's on TV, all matches are somewhere in the world. What do you think all the cameras are for, Match of the Day?

He's been ok for us this season. Booing him is not going to help our plight.

It'll be fine, don't worry. More annoying at Naylor saying we should put this to bed etc etc surely he can see it's just a bit of fun now.

I wasn't aware the Albion were in a plight.
Not Brighton and Hove, anyway.

Never understood the 'don't know what you're doing' or '####er in the black' songs........hardly going to endear the target or help you benefit from marginal 50/50s either conciously or subconciously.

Bet you are fun at parties!

Odd thing to say. I'd sooner win the game.

The plight is having Mike Dean as ref

Convinced that when we sung “Mike Dean is a ****er” when at Swansea he grabbed his balls and smirked at us. He ****ing LOVES the attention.

 

[DavidRyder]

As long as we put in a professional team performance and give him no reason to make an unpopular decision, it'll be fine.

As others have said, he was fine at Swansea and Southampton. Should have given a free kick for a dreadful Swansea tackle in the build up to our goal, but let it go - net result, we scored. Obviously gave us the Pen at Southampton when some others surely wouldn’t have. That’s 4 points we may not have got. He makes mistakes, and he’s a prima dona, but he’s not the worst. Arsenal fans absolutely hate him though.

Welcome to North Stand Chat.

Nothing like a questionable ref to get the atmosphere going which can only help the players

 

[Munkfish]

Those who are saying let it go, if Scott Mcgleish 'is a wanker, is a wanker' turned up for whatever reason at the AMEX I would still boo him, same as Adkins.

Mike Dean has been added to that list in my mind and I will abuse him as I have done each of the three games away this season.

 

[rippleman]

Fortunately not a TV game so won't be trying to play up to the cameras and make it all about him.

Not being on tv won't stop Mike Dean!

Away win?

Good point resident pedant. 3 good points on Saturday please.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Oh no!!!!!!!

Lets make him very welcome.

Brighton & Hove Albion v Swansea City
Referee: Mike Dean
Assistants: Simon Long, Eddie Smart
Fourth official: Chris Kavanagh

Love Chris Kavanagh though. You never know maybe Mike Dean will trip over a daisy or something, and Chris will have to take the whistle.

Just a little joke
