Im not criticising him.. Far from it. Players do have the ability to shut up but dont. What I am saying is that some refs will argue back and whilst they get away with what they could say, players say something and will ultimately get a card. In this game, the ref seemed to invite confrontation...

As much as I agree with you (I did add in my post that the players were stupid if calling him out so to speak), the red on the field was during a conversation with the player. I imagine his own tone of voice spiked the players reaction further. He welcomed the confrontation and showed a red card...

Happened twice in the Liverpool vs Brentford game. Salah going off first. Then Robertson. No guard of honour but with Salah especially it was clap all 4 sides. Stand and look up emotionally, kneel down and kiss the turf. Hug every player he could see... It was ridiculous. Slowed the game...

Ref has lost control of this game in the 70th minute by giving a penalty that is so unbelievably weak. In my opinion its not a penalty. He seemingly sent off 3 players now saying things out of turn, I guess, and they shouldn't have but I feel they have every right to feel aggrieved. Several...

I saw his recent fixtures and didnt see any PL games so I stand corrected. Probably why he got this game too then (because of the experience).

Is it not odd that Josh Smith what got the Play Off final for League One having also, most recently, done a League One semi final (obviously involving one of the finalists)? I get PL have a final day of fixtures so lots of PL refs unavailable but he does not have VAR experience and they are...

Oh you can see it now... As these will be implemented at the world cup too, sometime during game round 1 on a social network page full of armchair refs, I bring you "that should be a 2nd yellow. [Insert player/team] was affected on some random date in March with a 2nd yellow. Its just a...

Sounds highly like the situation where Celtic scored their 2nd goal. If not, have a look at that goal and you should get a good feel for this law.

That may be true but he didnt signal that time was up. It was extremely clear on all available clocks that a minute was still to be played based on the board that says minimum amount. They'll have coms recorded so hopefully we will know the truth soon. Whatever happens, the SFA have not come...

Id argue VAR drawing the lines here and broadcasting it, showing onside (even though we know the affected player was onside), is worse. Its created an opportunity for theorists to claim corruption.

Mines £95 this season. £65 to local and £30 to national (unless paid late then it goes to £45). As mentioned, I can do two games to cover that with the fees involved but the reason the fees shot up is because they took travelling fee away. This particular youth league has sent me in the past 30...

I do wonder, using the statement as guideline for this post im about to make (sorry its about the Villa game from tonight but hear me out)... The statement mentions about media, management, players, fans etc all calling out refs decisions yet in the Villa match I can almost guarantee you'll see...

Hope this works.... https://www.facebook.com/share/1E74DTFyrz/ This is the actual article by The Herald link. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1Co7uhiRA8/

Got to love "referees" coming out on social media, claiming to be referees at least, and adding, in caps, fun facts and being so incredibly wrong.

My considerable gripe with some decisions (lately 2 pen calls in 2 games this very week) is that they're both on the side of the AR who have clear unobstructed views of it all. How these assistants can't seemingly have an input (not saying they don't) but a head injury in the Tottenham game and...

This 2nd leg is looking like a Red Card is waiting to happen.

Dare comment myself but I always thought that getting the ball first was never in the laws. Its how you get the ball that is the fault if any. From behind/side like that its a foul anywhere else on the pitch.

I dont think it was a corner though. Not 100% sure Leeds player even touched it but I definitely thought I saw a touch after the challenge by Spurs player before it went out.

Trust me Ross, ive got nothing against him/her/they/them. See a report has been made about me. Id like a laugh and see a copy of it. A non referee on a referee forum picking and choosing what they reply to and getting upset when its called out.

Not at all. I dont notice you talk in other posts for me to reply. But it is now two threads where youve replied to my posts and completely ignored what was actually being said. Its not a criticism.. its not correcting. Its pointing out that you missed literally the whole point of what you are...
