Referee

[Half Bond Jls]

Don't usually blame referees but he's had a absolute nightmare tonight.

Seen better in my Sunday league matches

Could everyone just get off the refs back please.

It couldn't have been easy for him growing up in the docklands of London.

What's going to be done about this? Are there any deterrents? Mouth of the South respect your post but whatever they are they aren't enough.

To be clear I don't mind mistakes if they are understandable/reasonable but there was literally no excusing that performance and decision making this evening.

It's like a doctor has a difficult job, but it's not excusable for them to punch you in the face rather than giving you CPR and if they did that they'd rightly get sacked for gross negligence/misconduct, this is something similar.

Yes I'm angry but it's just not good enough.

Instead of blaming the ref, why not blame our totally inept team

 

[SwitchBLADE Smiles]

I’d genuinely forgotten just how dog shit the refereeing is in the EFL. We’ve had 2 (3?) particularly poor ones now, the most recent being the worst of the lot.

 

[JPSharpy93]

Someone in Sheffield must have seriously pissed him off today

We were playing 12 vs. 11, then 12 vs. 10 I can understand us not winning that.

It was like Derby County playing Juventus back in the 1970's, if this match had taken place in Italy it would have been monitored by the authorities for match fixing.

If mcgoldrick does his job we win regardless of the ref , another 1 on 1 clean through and can't finish then misses an open goal from 2 yards that was actually easier to score than miss

It's debatable as to whether you could say Gibbs white dived. It looked to me like a foul but had he gone down a bit threatically?
However you'd like to see players given some benefit (that they aren't diving) unless its really obvious.
I mean Bogle went down easier to try and buy a pen in 1st half and that wasn't a booking so why it's different for mgw?
I can only assume because mgw went off at ref in 1st half when he got what did look like an actual booking?

After this and then a few more decisions including not giving saville a 2nd booking the ref completely lost it.
His head was gone and for both teams I felt he was giving random decisions.

The standard of reffing at this level is atrocious. And you don't realise until you've been in the PL for two seasons just how bad it is.

We were awful first half until a few mins before we scored. 2nd half we were all over them until sending off and then I felt it was pretty even and we actually looked the more threatening until they scored.
Those 10 players did well and were unlucky.

You know you can do both right?

Why do you assume that people complaining about a genuinely disgusting referee performance, are happy with the teams performance?

FWIW, we were a disgrace in the first half but second I thought we played well all things considered.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

You get good refs/bad refs, it's been like that forever so this is a short sighted excuse.

Stop with the excuses, we are a car crash right now and have legacy players that don't seem to be playing for Slav IMO.

Either give Slav 2 more windows or sack him now? Because until this has happened it in't going to get much better.

[ForgeBlade]

That was fucking disgusting. I'm not going to say what I really think as I'd probably get an infraction, but that really was utterly disgraceful.

 

[gavtheblade]

If refs are gonna yellow card those decisions like gibbs white,then the premier league pussies better watch out.jeezuz wept,get this season finished.

 

[BettingBlade]

When are these cunts going to be held accountable for being an absolute abomination week in week out.

If i was Slav Id take the fine and a touchline ban for calling him out by name. The bloke was an absolute disgrace.

 

[TomHeffernan]

Embarrassing.

Will you stop bumping your own threads please it’s embarrassing. Really really embarrassing.

 

[Jinxy1966]

A plague on his eyes

I think this already happened about 7.45 this evening.

 

[Balham]

Infractions are only given for personal abuse against other members. Tonight's referee is fair game.

His family members are off limits though and some members* should bear that in mind.

*Not you!

 

[FMBlade1]

The MGW decision was so bad I almost think that maybe racism had something to do with it, along with how Ndiaye wasn't given a free-kick for a blatant shove.

That is genuinely one of the most stupid things I have ever read.

I got one a couple of years ago for accusing a referee of being bent. For clarity, I'm not saying that tonight (publicly at least)

 

[FMBlade1]

To be clear I ultimately don't think that and don't accuse the referee of that though the thought did cross my mind, especially as per the discussion of 'unconscious bias' against black players on SUFC Live pre-match build up...

 

[sufc323]

The worst refereeing performance I’ve seen since Saturday.

 

[Middle Aged Blade]

Fucking Wank!

Might be wrong without checking, but I don't think you've ever had one here

 

[jt64]

I'm going to be diplomatic and say that the wanker was terrible

 

[ForgeBlade]

Might be wrong without checking, but I don't think you've evee had one here

Ah my bad then! Maybe I just had a post deleted by admin (probably for the best)

 

[Constantly Optimistic...]

Very poor referee without doubt. We are the premier league ex. Get used to the bias. We start every game with this on our shoulders. But, we should not need to fall on this for the excuses of a very poor performance. Don't give them the opportunity to deny us. Shit referee, shit performance. Nuff said.

 

[S64 Blade]

The shove on N’Diaye was so blatant. Could see it as clear as day even from the back of H; their played shoved him at arms length. Would need to see the second yellow back, as not as easy to spot, but didn’t look at all like a dive.
