What game were you at?They made much more noise than us.
Yet again a clear handball missed.
Deal with it, the officials are awful. They just get away with it though, nothing gets said to them.
That ‘performance’ was an utter disgrace in the name of refereeing. No excuses he was Sunday league standard and if there was a substitute referee then he should of gone at half time.The truth is there is simply a lack of people willing to do the job since you start at Sunday league getting dog's abuse for hardly anything. It means that people who probably shouldn't go up the ladder do so, the standard drops, the abuse increases and the cycle repeats. Unless I'm mistaken there is always an assessor at these games and it'll have been fed back to him behind closed doors that he had a shite one.
It’ll absolutely have to improve.
When China and Saudi and Russian leagues start to pay a shit tonne of money for premier league officials to go abroad then they will have to start paying them decent wages which will then facilitate proper accountability.
Dont the refs have a union? Just refuse to do it until they get a share of the tv money or something

referees should not influence games sadly this fucking clown did and I’d be surprised if he doesn’t have a sleepless night with a letter explaining he needs to go for additional training.
I’ve not witnessed such a shocking performance in over 40 years .
Deal with what? Didn’t say the officials were good today.Yet again a clear handball missed.

Villa fan on fine live saying they’d be sixth if it wasn’t for poor refsYet again a clear handball missed.

Fair. Always seems to be loaded though against the officials and the inadequate “strikers” are the lesser fall guys.A fair ref and we win. A decent striker and we win. Blame them both, don’t let one off because you want to defend the other.
Adge mate if I was as bad as him at my job I'd get the sack

Ridiculous.
One is about player performance which is an expected variable is part of the competition.
One is incompetence of people running the game and shouldn’t be variable
Not to this extent. As much as you like playing devils advocate just for shits and giggles today’s referee was incompetent. That shouldn’t be the caseIt’s always variable - we are only in this league due to two appalling refereeing performances in the play offs that went our way and oddly no one complained
Yep they still employ youBurger King probably has less stringent standards in fairness
Fed back to him isn't really much, he will be back having a shit one next week.The truth is there is simply a lack of people willing to do the job since you start at Sunday league getting dog's abuse for hardly anything.

But no bias from the stands of course.Ridiculous.

Honestly can’t see it being that today... they had 200 fans and we had 5000 fans absolutely raging at him, if ever there was gonna be a helping hand from a 12th man I’d have said it would have been today... he was just utter garbage & once we got on his back about the first few bad decisions he made a point of giving us nothing! He really shouldn’t even be reffing a game of kids footy
Fed back to him isn't really much, he will be back having a shit one next week.
Week after week there are big decisions completely missed and wrong.But no bias from the stands of course.
Don't think that happens though. As he was so bad thought it might be his first game or something so googled him and this is the first thing that comes up:Not as straightforward as that-will at least be getting demoted. If he isn't we're more short of refs than I thought
Today the officials performance has potentially cost us 2 points, and there's other examples of similar this season. Given how tight this division is how big an issue could that be at the end of the season.Week after week there are big decisions completely missed and wrong.
Our crowd was shit today, totally outsung by about 50 of there fans.What game were you at?
Without seeing the previous 20 odd games we wouldn’t know. Obviously the powers that be deem his performances to be at the required standard for this level.Don't think that happens though. As he was so bad thought it might be his first game or something so googled him and this is the first thing that comes up:
'Why can’t referees be sacked?' - Oxford boss wants 'horrendous' official axed
That was in March, does today performance give the appearance anything has been done to rectify his deficiencies?
You have to wonder why these things are happening. Clearly referees don’t turn up with a bias against Coventry. They also don’t turn up to have a bad game. I actually thought the guy today started fairly well, was trying to be unobtrusive and let the play flow.The truth is there is simply a lack of people willing to do the job since you start at Sunday league getting dog's abuse for hardly anything. It means that people who probably shouldn't go up the ladder do so, the standard drops, the abuse increases and the cycle repeats.

Couldn't hear them at all. Thought they must of been hiding under their banner. We weren't.great thiughOur crowd was shit today, totally outsung by about 50 of there fans.
No reason why you can’t put yourself forward squire to referee. Always short of officials at every level.Never agreed with this "no referee, no game" shite.
If you've got a ref who can't see properly, or is biased, you might as well walk off the pitch and give the 3 points away. You're never going to win.
All this "respect the ref" shite needs to stop. Just do your fucking job and you will get respect.

Unfortunately that’s not true. Part of the problem is the actions of certain managers, players and the crowd.Never agreed with this "no referee, no game" shite.

Managers like Steve Evans will never show officials respect no matter what they do. Some players will do whatever they can to gain an advantage.They are effectively trying to cheat the ref and the other team. Crowds are totally biased and many of them simply won’t accept decisions against their team and will abuse the officials even when 5hey are completely correct. Referees should be given respect so long as they are being honest and trying to do the right thing.
I think your comment about not needing a referee for games to take place is very interesting. So a game like today’s has no ref. Who will ensure that fair play happens? The players? The managers? In truth you are wrong. No referee does either mean no game or total anarchy on the pitch.
Feet firmly on the ground boss despite not going. Just for your information I did see the game.He was fucking useless as have been several refs this season and we were today denied another stone wall penalty.
No doubt you will take your usual dual position of getting on your high horse about not going to st. Andrews while simultaneously defending the refereeing performance in a game you didn't see.
I agree with you. See the post above. I genuinely think we would be at the top of the league if every decision we should have had had been given.You are a poster whose opinion I respect but tally up major decisions that have gone against us this season compared to those that have gone for us.
The imbalance is huge. Another stone wall penalty denied today. What the fuck is going on?

Yes baka was shit but surely you can see the refs at our level can't do there jobs properlyI seen the same as you squire. Yes, it should have been a penalty. Am I furious? No. Should I be furious about our inept misfits upfront?
