YESTERDAYS REFEREE

[peniblade]

Glad to see that our favourite referee, Mark Heywood, was officiating yesterday. His previous United's matches are as follows:-

2/10/13 Hartlepool (A) 2-1
9/2/14 Shrewsbury (A) 2-1
24/3/15 Scunthorpe (H) 4-0
26/9/15 Doncaster (H) 3-1
20/12/15 Bradford (H) 3-1
15/10/16 Port Vale (H) 4-0
26/12/16 Oldham (H) 2-0

Yesterday I thought he kept the game moving despite Oldham's negative tactics - understandably considering their League position. Also 90% of referees would have disallowed the second goal for Clarkes challenge on their keeper. Long may he continue to officiate at United's matches.

On a further point, in yesterdays programme on page 79 it quotes that there have been 2349 games both home & away with a total of 4700. According to my records the 4700th is on Saturday for the Northampton game. KC please amend accordingly !!!!

The ref was fine, but his lectures took too long to administer and I thought he was stingy in adding 5 minutes at the end. 6 substitutions and numerous Oldham players having a sit down should have warranted a wee bit more I reckon.

 

[Punk Blade]

Best moment from the ref yesterday was when Coutts(?) misplaced a pass to the defence and sent their forward clear he completely ignored the numpty of a linesman trying to flag offside. He should've had a word and reminded the lino of the rules though!

PseniBlade.

The ol' silent 'S' ...

Diggin' it yo bro muthafucka.

 

[Muttley]

The ref who disallowed 4 goals against Port Vale.....2 of which looked fine.


And....he should have clamped down on their bouts of random cramp.

Where does it say he's from Spennymoor??

This used to go over your head until you had your hair done.

 

[Muttley]

George Courtney was from Spennymoor. What a twat of a ref he was.

 

[Keef Chedwyn]

KC please amend accordingly !!!!

No.

 

[Stretch]

Quite honestly I thought he was playing for them in the first half, he seemed to give them everything and didn't get a grip on their time wasting. On reflection however and after a good nights sleep he wasn't too bad.

 

[GrayBlade]

I thought that he was ok after a so-so start. A bit like the players.

Fleck I think. And also, that may sctually be offside under the new rules depending on whether the offside player was interfering with the ability and sight of our player, maybe? I'm Not sure.

 

[FlamingLip]

Don't think there were really any moments of controversy and thought ref went kind of unnoticed which is how it should be. He tried to keep it flowing inspite of the 154 times a blue shirt slowly crumbled to the floor. Their physio shifted his Christmas dinner at least.

What do you reckon to DARREN DRYSDALE he's doing the game against Northampton,last game he reffed of ours Jose Baxter got sent off after 19mins.

 

[Harry's Game]

The two minutes added on in the first half was a joke, There were three injuries of 2 minutes plus including one where an Oldham player was laying in the goal at the Kop end for three minutes

 

[Punk Blade]

Offside can only be as a result of the ball being played forwards, and against the team playing the ball. No chance of Oldham being offside from us playing the ball backwards.

You're right on the ET, but to be fair, being 2-0 up I would rather have had much less!!

 

[JohnDenver]

In recent years when United had a game won they used to stop playing. These days I actually enjoy watching us toying with our prey once it's subdued.

Not another Darren! Darrens Bond, England and Deadman have been useless!

100%... which is a very weird and a very wonderful thing

 

[Bladesway]

So, let me get this clear. If our player passes to their player in an "offside" position he may be offside? Even though it is physically impossible to be offside from an opposition pass?

Either I missed a major rule change or you haven't got the first clue about what you are talking.

To be honest pal, I think I confused myself writing it.

Further to yesterdays game our favourite referee, Mark Haywood, was the official in charge. Yet again he had a reasonable game & was receptive to the pitch invasions & did not make much of it & most importantly we won again which is the eighth win in succession whilst he has been the referee.

Long may it continue.

 

[LoughboroBlade]

I thought he was sprinting to the tunnel while whistling for full-time, which seemed impressive multitasking.

Never seen a referee move so fast and bet he has never moved so fast either

Greenwich Blade were you on row j? Think you were standing near me at one stage.

Small pedantic point but it was Mark Heywood not Mark Haywood yesterday. I may or may not know the one that didn't ref and he may or may not support a certain red and white stripped football team that got promoted yesterday (that's ambiguous enough to not get him in trouble, yes? )
