Later, the former referee Tim Peel shared that he didn't find this amusing at all.
Here's what he said:
However, today, a fan pointed out that Peel isn't saying the same thing as when Wes McCauley did one of his infamous penalty call.
Back in 2022, Peel came out after a call by McCauley and said that he loved it.
NO ONE does it better than my buddy Wes. We are in the entertainment business and I love how he does it. Oh and btw he's a really good ref!!"
Both situations are extremly similar. However, Peel liked one and disliked the other.
Some fans pointed that out on X:
