I've watched it several times now and you have to agree its probably one of the best you'll ever see, the bit that amazes me more is that poor old Harry's squeals wen un noticed by the darlings of the media!!!!
It was. It absolutely was. But with that ref and the way he was giving out cards it was a ‘dangerous’ thing to do IMO. Especially as it was against Kane. He was already, unfairly I’d say, on a yellowYellow card was 100% correct not even debatableIt was. It absolutely was.

Second tackle was brilliantly executed
I'm sure I recall Hopkins was doing his writhing four rows up in the stands.Fine margins Brian. Just slightly mistimed and he'd have got a second yellow for sure and we'd all be calling him reckless. It really was a thing of beauty - great anticipation, speed, aggression and I actually think he deliberately passed it to the NGM too. I'm not sure I'd give it the hyperbole our mate Garth has given it as "the best tackle I've seen in years" but it's certainly up there and had echoes of that one by Walshy that had Hopkins writhing on the touchline at Wembley. Deep joy!!

No communication with the players, preferred to wave the yellow card instead of a good talking too, the tackle on Kane early on by Faes was a very soft yellow, never seen him Ref before and hopefully never again…
It’s his tenth premier match his first was our game against Southampton where he was also abysmal, he seems to think that if a foul is committed it’s a yellow card every time!The Referee on Saturday was possibly the worst I have seen in the Premier League (and we have witnessed some absolute garbage)

Nothing wrong with kicking the buck out of each other, I used to for St Pats on a Saturday afternoon and never got booked, mind you we did have good referees back then…He was poor but he was correct to caution Faes if he let that go players would have kicked buck out of each other
