Dogawful Officiating

If he’d ref’d this properly none of our players would have been so frustrated and Kennedy wouldn’t have done that.

 

I dunno, Kenedy is frustrated with himself, he's been bloody awful but aye a poor ref can affect how you play to be fair.

[Incognito]

Fuck me. This bloke could be the worst of the lot

[Interpolic]

Yesssss come on

 

Wrong thread

[joeyt]

That yellow for Arter ffs

 

Such a blatant red

[madras]

Hope Rafa deadpan it with a "Brilliant refereeing performance, none better, can he referee us every week "

[midds]

That yellow for Arter ffs

 

Such a blatant red

 

And because of the rules he can't be charged and have it upgraded to red can he? Can't challenge bookings can you?

Don't think many refs would give a red for that tbh, refs generally let tackles go unless you go in with studs up

[Nobody]

That Ritchie yellow card was comical

Set the tone of the game with that one. Soon as they went down, they got a free kick. Playing against a team like Cardiff, whose only way of attack is through set pieces, and not being allowed to tackle is pretty much impossible.

Xhaka got a red a couple of seasons ago for the exact same type of tackle. I'm not sure how the ref could have let Arter's go today either

[Guest firetotheworks]

Definitely on the shitlist, that prick.

[Bimpy474]

Booting someone knee high is a red card 100%, only the ref knows why he didn't think it was, and that won't matter as he's a useless fucking shite.

[Nobody]

Just seen the Arter tackle. In no way is that deserving of a lower punishment that Hayden.

[Skeletor]

Gave every little decision to Cardiff, missed Kenedy's red, gave Hayden a red for nothing, then didn't give Arter a red for a worse tackle than Hayden's, then gave us a penalty for a handball outside the area.

 

Fair to say this one isn't bent or malicious, just really incompetent.

It wasn't a tackle or even an attempt to tackle, it was just a kick out at a player.

Aye I know. Just think players get away with those a lot more than ones with studs up

Ritchie getting booked for a foul committed by a Cardiff player on his team mate was the catalyst to the refereeing shitshow.

Probably right. Wasn't there a similar tackle last season where the ref sent them off? Loved the suggestion on TFR that for those 'taking one for the team' tackles, that instead of a yellow card or being sent off, that they punish them with an enforced substitution of the player that does it. All fantastical obviously but I liked the thinking behind it.

Gaelic football does that, refs are terrible at judging it though

Thing is it wasn't like he pulled him back or clipped his heels, it was a kick out, as violent as Kenedys which will get a 3 match ban.

Jesus

Isn't going to get into bother for that ?

[ToonArmy1892]

Is the dog thing just made up then?

[LRD]

If it was real and had been in the public domain at one point, it would have gone viral already.

VAR please.
