We haven't had him yet this season, but I still hate him. Looks like he calls lotsa fouls, but few red cards issued. This bodes well for Dema.

Thx,

I have not seen Gus this year but historically he is pretty much terrible.

Gus is a very good friend of Mr. Trask. We gave him quite the dressing down in Wilmington at the USOC match last year as I recall. I think that's the closest I've ever been to a referee and screamed "you don't got sh!t" at him when he told Trask to "sit down, I got it" :) Trask turned around and smiled.

*bump*

While it wasn't a stellar performance by the ref. I didn't really notice him either. Sure, Kreis may have deserved a yellow for his tackle on Olsen, but in most leagues a top striker get a "free pass" when it comes to their first bad defensive challenge.

And he was miles ahead of that yutz who reffed NE vs. NY/NJ.

Thx,

Jay!

i think when you dont notice the referee, the referee has done a great job.

He missed giving kries a yellow on a really, really bad challenge. and threw one or two later that were a bit harsh trying to keep the game in check. and the refs were a bit off in some of their offsides calls....

but for one of the few times this year, i didn't spend most of the match screaming at the ref on TV....
