Mike Riley said the same thing.
So two of the most respected refs over the last couple of decades both dismissed the arguments that Oliver was right to give a straight red. But PGMOL double down on his and Darren England's objectively wrong decision.
PGMOL's reputation has been gradually eroding with each year and terrible decision that goes by. But you can't help feeling a large chip of reputation just fell off with this fiasco. What a joke of an organization.
I would not be surprised if PGMOL is found to be involved with match fixing in the future
they literally have reffed games in the UAE, which owns City. How that is not grounds for immediate dismissal based on conflict of interest is astonishing.
