The ref...

Who was he? Did well today fair play for both sides let things flow hats of to him got 90% things right ps YOU'LL NEVER BEAT THE JACKS

The LEGEND that is Mark Halsey.

Outstanding performance today. Probably one of the best I've ever seen in a City match, genuinely.

Come back from cancer to boot.

Excellent referee

Yup he was quality and handled a derby as it should be handled

agreed. also good to see him back referring after beating cancer

whe he was warming up down our end, he got a huge round of applause from the city fans and he gave it back to us - hats off to him, a very good performance fair to both sides and its a shame we don't see more cmmon sense decision making from the prima donna refs who think they are part of the celebrity football circuit. I wish him all the best for the future

He was excellent yeasterday was constantly talking to the players and only produced cards when he had to he used loads of commonsense and let the game flow. Many referees would have bottled it and sent off Quinn for his foul on Sinclair because of the reaction from the crowd but he kept calm and dealt with it in the correct manner.

So well done Mark Halsey and all the very best for the future
