    It's annoying the **** out of me. They're leaving a gap down the side and he's constantly trying to cut in and they're waiting for him!

    That was a nailed on yellow that Mepham got away with there to be fair. He needs to be careful, getting himself wound up by this lot.

    To be fair both of them went overboard on each other and that Hernandez should've been booked for kicking Ballard in the head

    That was exactly my point. Too many people cry about the ref when a decision goes against us, but this ref is letting a lot go on both sides.

    Ridiculous when he’d just been let off for one. Sainz will be trying it on all second half

    Need to keep our heads here, conditions making it a poor game but no reason we can’t up it and turn it around

    I think we've been poor this half. Some of our decision making is questionable and we haven't really got going attacking wise

    It's about creating an atmosphere that pressures the ref into feeling like he has not been even handed so that we get more favourable decisions, he will actively try to even things out if the crowd convince him he has not been balanced.

    Low IQ: Refs bad.
    Middling IQ: Stop moaning about ref bad.
    Genius IQ: Use psychology to increase chances of winning the match.
