What pisses me off people will say it will even it self out which is ****ing bullshit. The refs are getting worse pal.
Just our look. The ref at the Chelsea v burnley game was very bad by the sound of it to. Iam going to order some food and watch match of the day. Pissed off.
I'm not renewing my sc based on the standard of officiating, its a waste if time and money, fuming again
Its not just the fact that we are on the receiving end of shockingly poor refereeing decisions, we are not even getting the luck of the 50-50 decisions or the decisions which are difficult for the referees or linesmen. Normally the home team get the 50-50's.....we dont!!!! We are just not getting the rub of the green!
Its the only thing keeping me at the sol tbh and has been for a good few years, the only enjoyment is a few pints with the lads
Several explanations not least of which is the ball was nowhere either man, mininal contact, could have been a stumble, could have been a dive etc. We could go ad nauseam but the ref gave yellow. Maybe Pulis got it right when he said he had seen old grannies stay on their feet after a collision like that.
Cast your mind back to the Palace game where they should have had a penalty in the first few minutes.
Als were contacted by the bbc recently and all they wanted was a negative spin on safc, i cant find the article maybe coz i'm pissed but when they couldnt get one they left, came back again after gus's letter looking for negativity, didnt get it anf ****ed off
He obviously wasn't the manager when Anichebe went down like a ton of s***e in the reverse fixture at WBA to gain a penalty in the first game of the season
The time has come for a third referee off the pitch to have casting vote over the referee for decisions like this. The "excuse" that modern TV and number of games is giving us more opportunities for mistakes to be made visible just doesn't wash. Before SKY we used to see Sunderland one week and Newcastle the next on ITV television with occasional Borough matches in between and we just didn't have this appalling standard. I don't remember EVER having the ref as the talking point after a match as often as now. Even Morinho has come out with complaints about the system so its not just us. If the technology is there to help then USE IT
The idea is sound but it would demonstrate just how inadequate the current crop of referees really are. A good idea but the FA will never agree for the simple reason that it will expose their short comings. They would never agree to that.
Ok then! Let me rephrase it and say that we are not getting nowhere near our fair share of 50-50 decisions! However I dont think there is a conspiracy against us! I just think we are unlucky!
