Neil Warnock had him in the place of referee and ground crew after Norwich City ended Middlesbrough’s unbeaten streak in a 1-0 Championship loss.
Marcus Tavernier’s penalty proved costly after he passed Tim Krul, but the goal was disallowed by a double touch.
Teemu Pukki no mistake with his penalty, but Warnock was furious. Referee Harrington chose not to show Jacob Sorensen a late second yellow card for a body check on Sam Folarin. Warnock headed straight to face Harrington on the final whistle and was still furious in his post-match interview.
“For him to tell me after the game that he didn’t think Sam was going to catch the ball, and that the ball would only go ten yards maximum when you look back, 15 maximum, and Sam will pass. Why are you telling me that? Because he knows he’s completely wrong, ”Warnock said. “Everyone knows that he should have been expelled. Why don’t we have officials who know what they are doing? It is a shame.
“He tells me that Sam is not going to catch him and you watch the video, a lawn mowing, he will have three more lawn mows before he’s in the box. Why is he saying that? Are you lying or did you really think that? I will have to write it down and ask. Did you see that? Maybe you should ask the chief umpire.
“He’ll be back ‘no, I should have fired him.’ What good is that to me?
“That’s the best I’ve seen him play. I have had some nightmares about him. That’s as good as I’ve seen referee and he was completely wrong there. We are talking about a kid who stops us by taking a quick free kick near the goal, he was warned four minutes from the end that next time it is a warning.
“Just book with him, then he knows he shouldn’t. Honestly, the laws of the game, the people running it now, Mike Riley, it was like Mike Riley Part Two was watching it.
“This guy will probably end up running the umpire association.”
Warnock also booked a pick for Boro ground staff after the lapse of Tavernier.
“We have had some guys sneak around. You may have to give the gardener a laugh, ”he said. “It was a match with two penalties. I don’t think Marcus (Bettinelli) had to make a save. They are a really good team, which really makes it more disappointing. ”
