FANS have slammed referee Anthony Taylor after he put in another controversial performance in charge of Preston's win over Coventry.
Taylor was demoted to the Championship at the weekend as punishment for awarding Newcastle a questionable penalty in their 2-2 draw at Wolves a week earlier.
The decision was not overturned by VAR but the PGMOL still decided to demote Taylor for the first time in four years.
However, he fared no better in the Championship as his decision to award Preston a first-half penalty sparked outrage from fans.

Milutin Osmajic raced through on goal and Coventry defender Kyle McFadzean tried to haul him down just before he shot.
But there was minimal contact and Osmajic did not appear to be affected as he struck the ball, though he did appeal for a penalty.
Taylor awarded the spot-kick, leading one fan to suggest he should be demoted again to League One.
One fan reacted saying: "Mental, not the only thing that was shocking yesterday."
Another added: "Jesus Christ that's bad ð¤£"
A third wrote: "Poor decision. Also if thatâs his decision, as the player wasnât making a genuine attempt to play the ball, shouldnât it be a red card?"

And another commented: "Probably even worse decision than Hwang's, how is it possible to make another howler like that in the very next game?
"I wouldn't allow him back in the Prem again."
Taylor is not the first Premier League official to be demoted this season.
