Also, as my mind likes to see bigger pictures, given only the ref in question was there at the time, like another poster said, I am yet to see this occurance, either observing or officiating, at numerous levels. Of course that does not mean it cannot happen twice in someone elses game
I would be thinking though, if this is happening, combined with " the pitch was awful", are we now in the ' farce " situation where we might not have a suitable pitch?
Whether that be through bumps or winds, if something obscure was happening, it can of course simply just be so. It also can be down to other factors,
