Yesterday we probably the worst all season.The ref. lost control right from the off by not getting the book out when bad tackles(from both sides) were flying in early in the game.The incident in the second half when Eccles was booked their player should have recieved a card don't think he did.There were incident all over the pitch.Why do we have linesmen?The incident in front of the main stand when the ref. was unsited and the linesman took an age .The times in front of us where players had handfull of Vics shirt and nothing was done.
Times when players tried to get fouls and the kicks went our way yet the offending player didn't get a booking Godden got a ban for that.The ball going out of play in front of the linesman clearly touched last by a team ref give the thow to them .The linesman staying quite. Many more not the best at all
Not implying any player should get a ban for diving but if you are trying to con the officals and get caught out a booking should be the punishment.(McFaz got a nose bleed being that far up the pitch). I don't mind robust challenges but some of the earlier ones were over the top from both sides.Are you suggesting McFadz should get a ban? For that pathetic dive near halfway line in 2nd half when trying to draw a foul and just belly flopped. Nearly put us in trouble too.
I thought he ref'd it okay. He allowed some physical challenges and just didnt blow for the slightest contact. He tried to let the game flow
It is hard for refs when players on both sides are trying to con them, managers and coaches are trying to con them and fans only see things from their teams perspective.
Gyokores as much as I love him, is the biggest moaning, every decision is against me, whingebag I have seen since Kenny Daglish.
Hope there are no knives in his house and not a city fan who won the shirt.
Check this c**t out
Awful tackleDavid Webb had a prime veiw of this ahem, challenge. Only a yellow according to him. It looked every inch a red in real time.

And cause the ref saw it he won’t get a retrospective banYep, had real force too.
Weird rule when you consider the advent of VAR.And cause the ref saw it he won’t get a retrospective ban
I thought the same. Certainly different style from most this season. I couldn't watch the game live so was a day behind making comments but I knew it would be good discussion fodder.I thought the ref yesterday wasn't too bad at all.
I've no problem with the ref. making the decision.The incident in front of the main stand when the ref was unsighted all it needed was"i didn't see it" from the ref "x put it out " from the linesman.The way he allowed the shenanigans with our free kick near the end before finaly booking Wilson and the diving by both sides which went unpunished.No control.You rarely see Linos give anything these days due to the comms system they have. They have a conversation with the ref and he blows up and gives the decision. Supposed to stop the players thinking the ref can't make a decision if the Linos are forever flagging.
This. I felt the opposite of the OP. Felt like he let things go and didn't fall for people flopping and diving. More refs like that, pls.I thought the ref yesterday wasn't too bad at all.
I think they put too much on the idea that if the ref and linesman disagree it make the ref look incompetent. I don't. The assistant referees are there for exactly that to assist the referee. If they're nearer an incident or see it from a better angle then they should be telling the ref so - it's what they're there for. Nowadays it seems like they just wait for the ref to make a decision then acquiesce to it, even if they blatantly know it's wrong.I've no problem with the ref. making the decision.The incident in front of the main stand when the ref was unsighted all it needed was"i didn't see it" from the ref "x put it out " from the linesman.The way he allowed the shenanigans with our free kick near the end before finaly booking Wilson and the diving by both sides which went unpunished.No control.
Especially when the laws say yellow card for a shirt pullHe let way to much go last night and then booked us for small fouls.
in the space of about 4 mins they nearly pulled shirts off about 4 of out players and only 1 got booked
There was one on Eccles too and then Eccles did exactly the same and got a yellow. They were both yellows.How on earth did he not give a yellow card for that hack on Hamer, when Hamer was bursting through. Very cynical challenge.
Also should have been a yellow, for the blatant shirt pull on Gyokeres in the second half.
Yup, it was almost like he forgot once he allowed play to continueLast night the ref played a couple good advantages for us. But on both occassions the fouls merited bookings.
Then he books two of our players which for less cynical fouls.
So I was at a referee development session last night and the national league ref said that if there is a cynical foul and you play on the caution doesn’t happenYup, it was almost like he forgot once he allowed play to continue
It isI think shirt pulling should be automatic booking whatever the stage of the game
we are as much to blame in this respect as other clubs but it should be eradicated and booking then sending off is the only way to do it
not from what i've seenIt is
Here it is from loaf - laws of association footballSo I was at a referee development session last night and the national league ref said that if there is a cynical foul and you play on the caution doesn’t happen
if you stop play then it does
My lad and I thought this must be wrong but I’m thinking about it now and it is to encourage teams to take advantage of the situation I think rather than complain at the tackle
We are checking but that was exactly what was said which would explain the scenario above and mean we were the numptys not the ref
