Doesn’t change the fact that we’ve had some fucking terrible refs though.
We aren't where we are in the league because of referees.
We aren't where we are in the league because of shithousery by the opposition.
We are where we are in the league because we don't score enough goals.
Simples.

Just us who’s had them? Also, what clarifies a bad ref? I went to wolves tonight in the arsenal end with friend. This is a two yellow cards, undoubtedly.
Yet pundits are saying “it’s harsh” and “ref got it wrong”. This is the issue we have. If either of those incidents isolated are at a city game, they’re yellow cards. The ref has got it spot on. Yet the talk is it’s harsh, and people start saying refs are shit etc. Fan behaviour/opinion(because of the media) are a bigger issue than refs

Yeo Rio is wrong. First one definite yellow second one no attempt for the ball cynical foulNo refs are the problem. The guy from Tuesday shouldn’t be referring at a professional level. We need refs of the same professionalism as players.
Yep consistency is the worst partIt’s two yellows whatever they say, I think James should have been sent off for a foul and then throwing the ball away in the same incident on Tuesday.
I get fed up with players throwing the ball away or sitting down on the pitch waiting for a substitute to get dressed.

Something needs to be done about timewasting. I’m happy for it to just be added on, bookings do nothing at all really, but fourth officials needs to be told to be a lot stricter. Three minutes on Tuesday was a joke. As was one minute in a first half with two goals TBH.
Said it many times before and will keep on saying it. Time keeping official and stopping the clock while the ball is out of play. Only solution that is ever going to work.
As I've also said before (but didn't this time), game becomes two halves of 30 minutes.On average the ball is in play for less than 50 minutes in a Championship match.
I have no issue with the clock being allowed to run & the concept of "stoppage time" but wholeheartedly agree this shouldn't lie with the referee, they already have far too much to contend with & it should be the responsibility of a 4th or even 5th official.

How long do you think the halves should be? Would you settle of the Dutch league total or do you want 45 minutes each half in play?As I've also said before (but didn't this time), game becomes two halves of 30 minutes.

I don’t have an issue with ball In play as much as the time wasting being overlooked when in play, throw ins, free kicks, goal kicks and keepers collecting the ball and dwelling on it should be a higher priority than it is given.

Ah the old pundits favourite go to line! It’s a myth that “all we want is a bit of consistency” across the board.I just want some consistency. I didn't think the was a pen on Tuesday but he then goes and gives another one in the middle of the pitch.
Our players aren't a complaining bunch bet they were clearly frustrated with that ref and I think that says a lot.
Absolute cobblers!No refs are the problem. The guy from Tuesday shouldn’t be referring at a professional level. We need refs of the same professionalism as players.
That’s not what I’m talking about though. Of course some refs are more lenient and some harsher and that’s fine.Ah the old pundits favourite go to line! It’s a myth that “all we want is a bit of consistency” across the board.
The reality is that if you gave ten referees one incident to look at that they would no doubt differ on opinions and interpret it differently.
A justified point.That’s not what I’m talking about though. Of course some refs are more lenient and some harsher and that’s fine.
Once a standard has been set for a game though it has to be followed. The two handball incidents on Tuesday the perfect example. The exact same thing happened in both. the ball his the players arm from a short distance and the arm was slightly away from the body. It was fine to not call that a penalty but then you can’t blow for it in the middle of the park.
The consistency of decisions from the same referee was appalling.
ThisGot the balance very wrong for me today. You want to let the game flow but you can't allow a team to persistently foul like that, needed to dish more cards our and be prepared to give 2nd yellows long before he did.
To be honest that's exactly what I thought was going to happen when they ran on.Fucking Keith Stroud again useless piece of shit can’t believe one of those runners on the pitch didn’t punch the fucker on the way past
