Arsenal fans petition over Mike Dean: Gooners want referee off club games

Diego Costa, who had continuous tiffs with Arsenal players all match, was somehow not even booked by Dean.

The petition, started on Change.org, reads:
After many poor decisions that go against Arsenal when Mike Dean is refereeing the game, it is time that we get an inquiry to his ability to referee Arsenal games. Major incidents have occurred in recent and past games that show he is inept at refereeing at this level now. The recent events at Chelsea V Arsenal (19/09/15) highlight this where two Arsenal players were dismissed while Diego Costa the opposition player made 4 straight red card incidents and was show one yellow card only. Also the incident where Mike Dean celebrated for the opposition, when they scored a goal, this was in the Arsenal V Tottenham Hotspur fixture (26/02/2012) video attached via link: https://youtu.be/3SPb8CYF4o4
As of the time of writing, the petition had 80,561 signatures. Arsenal fans ain’t playing!
