Once again a referee.....?

..has spoiled a good game. Just got a chance to watch the Man U/Blackburn game and was very annoyed when the ref ejected Dunn for a second yellow card. However, the official put himself 'under the gun' (as so many of them often do) by handing out a very tame and ultimately harsh card in the first half. I see this far too many times in far too many games.....games that are ultimately ruined as a spectacle for the most inoccuous and ridiculous reasons. Personally, I wasn't really caring who won the game, but I was enjoying it, as I always thought the visitors had a chance to pull it out of the fire....that chance (and a good game) was cruelly snuffed out by another poor decision. It's little wonder referees in the EPL are held in such low esteem from the fans, players, managers and the media. Any one agree with me?
