Manager hits out at official after 2-2 draw‘Really difficult to explain some decisions’
A frustrated Marco Silva, the Fulham manager, described the performance of Darren Bond, the referee, as “not at Premier League level” after he opted not to dismiss the Ipswich defender Leif Davis during the sides’ 2-2 draw.
Fulham had to settle for a fifth stalemate in six games against dogged opponents who had led twice through Sammie Szmodics and a Liam Delap spot-kick. But Silva and his players felt Davis should have been sent off in the 28th minute after illegally halting Harry Wilson’s run towards goal, Bond issuing a yellow card and presumably feeling Ipswich’s Dara O’Shea was well placed to cover.
