Incognito Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Stroud was annoying in a Neil Midgely style of "everyones come to see me". Watch when he gives the pen, how long it takes him, he's running towards the spot, keeps running waits for all eyes to be on him..........then gives it. Then if you get a chance watch him as he blows for the kick itself, he does like a lunge and point as he blows for the lick to be taken. More Clive Thomas tbh. Midgely wasn't a bad ref at all.

Sir Toon Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Would have been a replay starting with a retaken pen if we hadn't won this like. There would have been hell on. Nope Why "nope"? Sky Sports are showing that there has been a precedent in this, where England ladies had to go down this route. It just wouldn't happen, it wouldn't even happen if it had been awarded against Chelsea. Keith Downie off Sky said it was in the laws of the game to be able to force a replay and because of the amount of cash difference there is between this league and the Premier, you just know that the full legal route will have been examined by Messrs Ashley and co. Luckily for everyone concerned, the right result panned out and little damage done in theory. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 When did encroaching during penalties stop being a reason to retake it? Really bugs me how refs never enforce this, this was Burton's penalty against Wolves at the weekend. The keeper saves the penalty and one of the players who has encroached then clears the ball. What is the ref looking at there? What is he doing? That's Keith Stroud as well isn't it? You could tell the ref was going to be annoying last night the way he wanted every throw in to be taken to the exact inch where the ball went out and no leeway. Didn't think he'd be that bad though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had no intention of giving a pen until the linesman flagged. Oooh I'm not sure about that. Why would he continue runninginto the box ? My personal view is he knew all eyes in the stadium were on him at that very instant and he milked it for all it was worth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 fwiw aswell, I didn't know till checking at half time that rule about an indirect free kick being awarded for an attacking teams encroachment if they miss the penalty and neither did anyone else I spoke to.

Mole_Toonfan Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Refs have been fucking awful all season, they honestly make PL refs look absolutely amazing by comparison. It might be the number 1 reason I want promotion tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiesteve710 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Absolute howler from this bloke, in fact from the whole officiating team. Compounded by Stroud's egotism in refusing to be corrected when shown the laws of the game by our staff and probably a dash of enjoying being the centre of attention at a big stadium. Needless to say he is not fit to referee again in the professional game, however I'd accept it was essentially an honest mistake. Still not nearly as bad as that Steve Martin from Forest- he was just out-and-out cheating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me neither. Thought it would also be a retake but when encroachment happens its usually players from both teams which is a retake as we know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're there to be enjoyed. Cherished. Savoured. Had we not won, had that colossal fuck up resulted in a draw or loss, it would have been a victory for the human element - nay, all of humanity. The X factor of mankind, gorgeous and terrible and flawed as it is, it's that unpredictability that makes the sport truly great. That makes life worth living. And you want to take it away? Monster.
