Referee Taylor does little to inspire confidence, he fails to spot obvious fouls, and gives very bizzare decisions. In my humble opinion he has messed up this game big time, denied Blackburn a valuable win, and handed Norwich 2 points they should not have.
He is though very fit, he is always close to decisions and runs his diagonal well. Scant consolidation to Blackburn and Steve Keane. This was a poor refereeing performance that seemed to disintegrate into farce, check out the last 3 minutes!
