I really like the guy as a ref, just not for Cas games. I've felt that way for years. I hope it's a storm in a tea cup because it ain't like there's a large amount of refs in the game.

didn't sir alex pull a similar stunt on a ref once? (can't remember who it was but he hardly reffed a man utd game again)
