Indeed, this is a thing!

i had forgotten about that

Will Bruin wasn't impressed by a couple of his calls on corner kicks/goal kicks. Both involved him and both looked like they should've gone the other way. After the second one, he told him that was twice.

I'll let you know after the match.
How do you feel now?
From my seat I couldn't tell if the goal being called no good and then the following penalty kick at the other end was a good call. Other than that I like the way the official let them play and didn't call a lot of silly penalties.
The no goal from Rui was definitely the right call, he threw the ball into the net with his arm unfortunately (couldn’t tell from my seats either but watched replays after). I’m still looking for a good replay on Cleveland’s PK though because yeah it looked close.
Well, yeah, but I’m trying to remember if Unkel is one of those OK refs, or one who routinely calls against us.
I don't think there's any refs that routinely call against us currently, just some very inconsistent ones
