    Andy Robertson and that elbow

    Seems like the assistant referee will get the book thrown at him for lifting his arm at half time in the Arsenal game. Wee Andy has got previous though for altercations with match officials. Remember his minute long **** rant at the referee after the Liverpool v Burnley match when he was denied a last minute penalty. Burnley drew 1-1 spoiling what would have been a perfect 100% home record for the entire season.

    Looked to me like a self-defence reaction from the AR. WTF was Robertson doing chasing him down anyway.

    Chuck the book at him, officials can't be acting like thugs, ludicrous reaction.

    This ref got 12 games.

    I never know when you are being serious sinkov.

    It just looked like one of those "brush-offs" to me.

    There was a centre forward at Bolton, round about Big Sam's time, maybe even earlier, his name escapes me now, he used to brush opponents off with his elbow like that. He usually ended the season with a dozen yellows and a couple of reds. When your elbow is out at 90 degrees, it's a bit more than a brush off.

    Robertson deserves a smack in the mouth just for being Robertson.

    I abhor violence mon ami. I think this will be a book throwing exercise, not sure there's any precedent but I would think 6 games is the absolute minimum, possibly 10 ?
