Preston cheating


You think you’ve seen it all in football but I’ve never seen anything like that at all.
They must have held up the game for 5 or 6 minutes.
It got to a point where I simply didn’t have a clue what was going on,I don’t think the ref did either.
 
The whole time wasting thing is completely impossible to officiate mind without a time limit built into the regulations. How are officials supposed to enforce this consistently when there is no standard on what constitutes 'time wasting'?
Send the keeper off with a second yellow if he continues, woukd soon stop that, but the fake injuries only way is to add the time on properly - thst long stoppage was at least 7 minutes , without it it woukd have been 4 or 5 mins added time so should have been a minimum 11 minutes, that’s why teams do it
 
we said exactly the same watching the game, he knows he won’t give him a second yellow so looks away - it’s pathetic
In all the years I've watched football, tonight's ref absolutely sent me apoplectic with rage!!
We've all seen inept ref's over the years but this fella totally lost control...he was another level of incompetence!!..utterly blows my mind how these ref's are able to complete officiating badges.
 
Was delicious when Mundle curled that worldy into the top corner. Hope that defender got whiplash watching it fly in.

Too be fair, even the Preston fans on their board thought it was pathetic and they got what they deserved.
Which defender? the one with his two hands grafted to Mundles shirt? that one?
 
It was the worst I've ever seen.

But it actually helped us because until then neither the players nor the fans had any sense of urgency about them and suddenly that got everyone fired up.

Some of the most blatant cheating you'll ever see - if nothing else I'm pleased we denied them the win.
This.

I get the ‘dark arts’ of sport and all that but it was a fcuking disgrace that tonight. Referee was useless aswell

To be fair while I was frustrated with the ref at the time he used the only real power he had to add 9 minutes onto the game and booked their keeper for pissing about. While he took his time I wouldn't say the keeper wasted time to the extent it warranted another card after that.
 
The media and ex players are just as much to blame for where it’s gotten to now with all the praising of the “dark arts” and “shithousery” rather than just calling it what is - cheating!!

"Game Management"
Really winds me up. 1-1 and commentators saying that Preston need to manage the game and disrupt us.

No. They should be going out to score the winner, or at least try to... that's what fans and TV companies pay for, not to see someone fake a head injury
