Really Frank, not that i usually stand up for referees but he's not done much wrong. He possibly could have waited a little longer on the first one but when someone goes to ground the whistle gets blown because you don't expect them to get back up in the same movement. The Zaha decision was bang on and the last advantage he blew up because Rojo was betting to the ball first but slowed right down when he heard the whistle.
I think a lot of statements are being made because people want Untied to lose. I want Palace to win but that doesn't blind me from what is actually happening.
The golden rule of refereeing is to not to be too hasty in blowing the whistle. On two occasions he should have waited to see how the game developed, but I agree he got the penalty incident right. As for who wins, I have no preference.
