I think they need to make up their mind about what ball boys can and can't do. This whole "they can only get it and put it back on the cone" is nonsense when you watch games and they are clearly throwing it to players or sat there looking at it depending on what the score is.

Ours just sit there and watch.

Yep

Hey, these ball boys are painted on!

It took the ref about 4 minutes to notice an additional ball on the pitch.

I know the play was down the other end, but even when it went out of play and he looked down in the corner, he still completely missed it, so I assume he couldn't see it.

Sack the ref imo

A good ref. for me is one I haven't even noticed (when talking about the game don't mention him)and i certainly noticed him.The boot incident before half time nearer 3 minutes than 1. He jestered he was adding it on and no way did he.I thought his decision making in general fell short.One good point he left player who try to rule refs. by lying down claiming a foul sitting there.
The linesman if he was good hate to see a bad one.

This is the biggest myth when it comes to officials in regards to the every day football fan. The referee is measured on how he deals with the key decisions and incidents that occur during the match.

And overall confidence and assertiveness

And overall confidence and assertiveness

The issue is that refs can be as confident and assertive as they want, but they can still get loads wrong.

Probably where the issues are if that is how refs are judged.

As I am someone prone to criticise referees, I thought I had to say, the guy who refereed today was decent.

Think he was very lenient on the one from McNally, but other than that, he was decent.

I must admit I didn't notice him which is a good thing!

When are referees going to start giving penalties for all the pushing and pulling at corners? Just watching Chelsea v Wolves & at a Wolves corner Cucerella, Tosin, Caicedo & Sanchez all pushed or pulled a Wolves player out of the way as the ball was played in. Unfortunately they left Docherty free to score.

Tosin was upset he didn't get the foul, madness

On shirt pulling that goes on a lot,perhaps they should do like the "Hutch"did, take their shirt and present it to them,sort of if your pulling it you must want it badly here you are.
Then again now adays if you take it off you get the same discipline as hauling and opponent down so better not.
