Ref tonight

Fuckin infuriating tbh. Some of the fouls he gave against us compared to what he let go when we were fouled was just weird. Nowt game changing if taken separately but the way he reffed the game definitely had a baring on the overall momentum of the match imo.

Just for a bit of balance, the linesman on the west stand side early in the game gave a corner to us when the ball went out for a throw in about seven yards from the byline. Everyone around me was pissing themselves as it was just bizarre.
 
I checked the stats about 35 min in. He hadn’t given a foul against Burton. He’d given 5 against us.
Correct mate our first free kick was on 37 minutes. I would have posted earlier but I actually thought I must have been mistaken and missed something but you have just confirmed it.
 
He never cost us the game
Just informed my 'neutral' mate and he says "you are talking bollocks...and the ref had a shocking performance".

Appreciate football is all about opinions and the referee has a difficult job but that is from someone who was there last night and is neutral.
 
It's baffling, every week you read on here they shit!

But people seem incapable of asking themselves why that is?

They watch every week, say refs are shit every week, but can't see what's asboutely staring them in the face.

Anybody with a grain of common sense and logic imo, should be thinking, f***ing hell its impossible in this day and age for refs, with the same tools they had 100 years ago ( just their eyes).

While the game has moved on massively more cheating, faster game, expected to book people more than ever.

It really baffles me wh people are not sympathetic and coming out with things like these guys really need help, the very fact not many on here could name a good ref this season, surely points to the fact how difficult it is?

The whole culture is ridiculous imo, a player cheats and cons the ref, does the cheat the player get criticised?

No the ref does, for not spotting the cheat!

There is nowt like biased passionate football fans for losing all sense of perspective and logic.
You raise some good points however the ref was f***ing shite

Well tell him he's talking unadulterated weapons grade platinum plated horse shit.

Saw Clough going mental about that. In the wider context that's why I want our dugouts swapped at the SOL. It's been noticeable this season how much the oppo have harangued the lino on that side.
 
While you may be right about some posters on here, there is absolutely no way on earth you can have any reason to try and defend that referee. It was an absolute dog shit performance, one that you simply cannot defend.
Agreed and I don't prove his point, because I am right, without bias about that referee.

As I have said I appreciate referring is a difficult job but the standard of referring we have received this season at home in particular has been poor.

The serious injury to Watmore is an example of poor referring that has cost us.

Of course if a ref has a bad game it should be said soo.

But if we seeing this all the time

Does it not occur to you that it may be because the human eye is simply not enough in this modern age.

The point people are making on here is that we have way too many poor referring performances this season just to brush it off. Of course we will encounter poor refereeing like everyone else but poor referring is happening almost weekly. Has that not occurred to you?
