Time wasting not punished with a card. Way too short added on time in first half. Disgrace

fallen for every trick in the book. probably in a foul mood with that mike dean podcast that’s come out. let’s hope david coote isn’t his mate
Four minutes was bloody ridiculous. Soucek was down for longer than that.

Good to see the ref thread started early. Warms me 'eart. I'm not sure the West Ham delays have been quite in card territory, although probably not far off.
Not sure why Paqueta went down holding his face though ? Was he stung by a bee ?

Definitely saw a west ham player roll a ball away at a freekick which should be a booking? Didn't just not get shown on the tv feed?

He went down because he was trying to buy a foul. Because he's a cheating c***.

In first half soucek alone was more than the 4 minutes added.
And in the second

Not the ref’s finest game, Paqueta should have been carded and if he’d given the penalty against whoever fouled Pervis in the box, I doubt VAR would have overturned it.
West Ham played the perfect game against us though.
The ref must be on a promise tonight and wanted to get away, added time was nowhere near enough, especially in the first half.
Have just seen the foul back on Pervis. How was that not a pen?

The foul on Pervis was a clear penalty. Poor performance although not terrible.
A goal at that point would have made it interesting.

I ran a stopwatch on the second half out of interest and, allowing for restarts, subs and the most obvious West Ham timewasting, it came out almost exactly the same as his time-keeping. He actually played about 10-15 seconds more.
Agree that the first half stoppage time felt short.
Overall though I felt there was a clear, positive effect from the clampdown on time-wasting. They got away with very little. Last season in tht scenario where we were always chasing the game, there’d have been long stoppages every couple of minutes and lots of feigned injuries.
Wait to you see the stamp/foul on Mitoma. VAR would not have overturned that either.
