Tsunami Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Missed that, where was it said? The Ref came over to the sidelines and the 4th Official had a tablet with him and repeatedly told him the correct rule; the Ref was having none of it or didn't have the balls to admit he was wrong. It was a complete farce, Rafa was absolutely livid. There was only 1 person in the whole ground who thought it should be a free kick to Burton. I'd have that idiot made to explain what exactly went on, why he wouldn't change his decision and then I'd suspend him for a month. Shelvey lost his head for the next 5 minutes and lunged into a couple of challenges; the consequences if he'd been sent off and we'd not won could have been the difference between going up or not. You can't have huge outcomes being heavily affected by a Ref not knowing a basic rule. It was chaos; I've seen nowt like it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 If you look at the Burton players after Ritchie stops celebrating they all immediately get back into position for a retake of the penalty. Still baffled by it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 It's not so much the fact he made a mistake, we all make mistakes, its the fact he wouldn't change his decision. How much of an arrogant cunt do you have to be to be shown the law, have players officials and fans telling you you're wrong and still ignore them and compound things? Shit scared of looking like he's done something wrong so he tries to bluff it out. Egotistical little wanker shouldn't ref again, fuck him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't have huge outcomes being heavily affected by a Ref not knowing a basic rule. It was chaos; I've seen nowt like it. Yep, each of the three officials involved on that side of the pitch should be interviewed separately to establish what conversations took place. If it comes out that the referee was shown the laws of the game but wilfully refused to apply them correctly then that goes beyond being simply a horrendous mistake and really is a sackable offence. I don't agree with the second point mind. The referee isn't responsible for the way players react to his decisions. Part of being a (good) professional player is having the mentality to carry on in the face of adversity and not allowing your focus to get distracted.

louistoon Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/39513763/do-you-know-the-rules-of-the-beautiful-game-better-than-referee-keith-stroud Nice little refereeing quiz here Got everything apart from 1. Seems like a stupid rule I can't see why that isn't just a goal (not that it would ever happen). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Another one out of his league today, played right into Wednesday's hands. You would have thought after what happened in midweek they would be avoiding hardly punishing our players today, but the referee gave them a free kick every time they went down, which was a lot.

Minhosa Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Did the ball go out of play before they won the throw for the second goal? Sure it did when the kid slid well out wide to 'keep it in play'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it did when the kid slid well out wide to 'keep it in play'. Yes, and we should have had a free kick in anyway. Free kick for the first goal was an awful dive too, plus Bannan should have been sent off. After seeing the refereeing last night it seems fairly obvious who this league is all about and Brighton are in for a rude awakening next season when they're a small fish in a big pond and they won't be given such an easy ride.

It's not an excuse, we lost because we were shit and deserved to get beat. But the referee did give them a helping hand on the way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Football should be very simple regarding anything like that. At any professional level, Barcelona, Ross County etc. No bullshit about this official not seeing the incident or that official seeing it and stopping further action... Ban and that's it.

I think they can ban in Scotland for stuff like this, cant they? I may have totally made that up mind, but I'm sure someone was banned for a similar incident in Scotland.

M4 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 When it's this blatant, and no action was taken at the time then, yeah, he'll most likely get punished. But at the higher level, there's nothing being done. Look at Suarez's reaction the other week against PSG. Premierleague even made an official rule amendment a couple summers ago, but no action is ever really taken. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/scotland/39620865 I think a lot of people in the game will just see that as clever play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
