Ref bottled that. Clear yellow.

I don't know, but used to be in the cock-up camp, i.e as RdZ indicated, the standard of reffing in the PL is not good enough. Now, however I am starting to suspect conspiracy. It is almost as though refs are going out of their way to make perverse decisions which go against us.
Fortunately, this was one that didn't actually effect the end result, but already this season we have been on the end of appalling decisions which could ultimately cost as European football.

It was a yellow card and only the ref thought it wasn't. Viera couldn't believe his luck to finish the half with 11 men and swiftly replaced him at HT

Ref absolutely bottled it, then the player went and committed another foul before the break. This league stinks out the place for officials
RDZ must be looking forward to another two hour meeting with Howard Webb when he visits to explain todays refereeing performance.
Absolutely diabolical refereeing. I think Peter Bankes left his red card in the changing room. The fact Dacoure was hooked at half time tells you everything
Shameful refereeing and, given how these games tend to go, I feared it would come back to bite us on the arse.

The bad decision that I thought would get us was when Mitoma was penalised just outside our penalty area for a shoulder to shoulder challenge

I'd really love to see the referee watch a replay of that incident, and then justify exactly why he didn't deem it worthy of a 2nd yellow. Please - just explain.
I assume he has an assessor somewhere in the stands marking his performance. Surely they review key incidents like this at some point after the game. Can we at least see the minutes ?

Was that the first half counter attack, Caicedo? hacked down bearing in on goal.
Even if there was cover, that’s a stonewall yellow.
The ref and VAR officiated the occasion, not purely the game in front of them. “Oh, I don’t want to be put in a position of having to reduce one team to 10 men”.
Did Haha give away about 8 freekicks with fouls. I could’ve sworn blind that commentary teams always say “That’s a yellow under the clocking up procedure”.
But no gloom here. 3 POINTS AGAINST THE SCUM
This was my thought, too. I think the not giving Caicedo the yellow for that challenge played into the not giving Doucoure the second yellow.
I don't know if that counts as defending the ref, but I think it's the best explanation we're going to get.

Any other player on the pitch gets a yellow. Some refs like to give a final warning as though the rules don't quite matter if you've had 1 yellow. A bit daft.
He didn't even speak to him for the second or third yellow card offences
When asked if it should have been a second yellow, RDZ simply said "I think yes" and left it there.
He's not wrong.

And Roberto will get another dugout ban for inept officialdom! As he will say himself "a clear clear clear yellow card.........no"

As I'm sure others have pointed out it was the same Peter Bankes who was the VAR official that inexplicably ruled out the Pervis goal for offside. It really makes you wonder if there's something else going on.
