Graham Scott appointed for Everton game

[Nick Bateman]

Bad news!! Graham Scott will officiate Everton V Fulham tonight. Why is it bad news?? Last season he was seen treating Marco Silva like 'dirt' in a touchline hysterical angry rant as fourth official. I don't know if anyone else witnessed that?!

I feel the refs have 'got together' to single out Fulham's manager and have tested his resolve with numerous wildly incorrect decisions this season and I am expecting more of the same from this referee.

We can still win, but I'm not that hopeful.

Could have been worse, could have been Kavanagh.

This may have been covered already but in the Wham game on Sunday a Wolves player was utterly flattened  by Wham defender's elbow and the only one booked was Gary O'Neill for mild protestations.

I am saddened by once again this talk of officials. None of them, not the system, not the new regulations nor the VAR are fit for purpose. I am sure that Everton being the home side and popular will get the rub of the decisions.

Our game is becoming one big con. But we live in hope that win, draw or lose. The result is decided by the teams that play. Not the officials.

Let's hope it was a false alarm on my behalf, and if Graham Scott proves me wrong I'll hold my hands up!

If Marco Silva is half the manager we think he is then he should be able to handle this situation by simply keeping in his area and not in ay way being rude to the ref.

He has established a reputation for consistent game management, as well as actively discouraging time-wasting, diving, and dissent, which has garnered some praise from football pundits and journalists. So says Wiki.
He may have a soft spot for goalkeepers having once been one before sustaining a long term injury.
In the PL you have to read tea leaves and clutch at any visible straws.
