Referees/Officials

[Blue Mist]

Think the linesman gave the Sterling decision. Dean nowhere near as bad as Mason or Taylor who I hope never referee us again. There really was no need to book him. It's getting ridiculous this thing with Sterling and referees.

So isnt it time the club spoke out ? It is getting beyond a joke.

Posted much the same in the MDT. I thought Dean was looking over to the lino to see if it was pen, but to call it a dive is just making a clear decision on the basis of doubt. Dean was aa far away as the lino and had as good a view. I think Dean was thinking of a pen, and the lino could easily have said just no. How many forwards has Dean booked this season for simulation where he hasn't given a pen but the forward has gone sprawling?

Paul Clement raging about the circumstances leading up to our winner; all events which took place deep in our half. Dean not popular anywhere.

He was fine when the camera caught him and the linesman laughing with each other just after Sterling got a yellow card so fuck him.

Do wish the interviewers would have a bit more bite. Clement is waffling on about Swansea being the better side in the second half and deserving to have taken something from the game: 'we equalise in the 81st minute and you're hoping we can hold out for the draw.' So, despite apparently being the better team they had no interest in pushing on for a winner; got what they deserved then.

Another shit performance from another shit ref. Rinse and repeat.

 

[Leto]

Ref was appallingly bad today.

We're in a war with the authorities and refereeing is one of the battlegrounds. We will win the war but there are going to be casualties.

Thought Dean did ok today. Sterling booking was assistants call and I thought he got most things right. I certainly wasn't sat there raging at him, anyway.

 

[mat]

It's hard enough for Pep having to work out the opposition tactics, then the refs come in and break up our play with failures to play advantage and dubious yellow cards other clubs get fuck all for.

 

[abu13]

What pisses me off with the Sterling incident today was that on each of the replays I have seen there is nothing to suggest that he even appealed for a penalty.

Rank bad referee decisions.

 

[simmo]

All we want is consistency. Earlier in the season holding in the area was clamped down and a pen. Today the same assusrant saw 2 incidents, ignored the one which was played on big screen. The second he believes sterling dived.

The first one Jesus was being held round his waist. Sometimes feels like the assistants know there on TV and are selective. Surely Fer should have got a yellow for dissent for slamming the ball a few occasions.

Ok? MCFC won in spite of what the FA wanted today. Sterling yellow decision - WRONG (again). Swansea goal - WRONG, offside doesn't count if against MCFC or benefits Manure.

I do wish you would/could elaborate mate.

 

[waspish]

No, Jesus went down too easy and looking for it, did that a fair bit in Brazil and should get it out of his game in England.

Good all our players should go down when breathed on like every other fcuking team we play against! We get fcuk all for being honest.

You thought KDB getting booked for a foul that was nowhere near as bad as the two Swansea fouls that preceded it (with no cards in sight) was OK then?

It was on the far side from me, so didn't really have a view on it and not privy to a replay obviously. Thought Yaya got away with one and Zabba certainly did, but that doesn't really fit the narrative I suppose.

Each to their own, but I thought he had a shocker.

But tell me, after that first half do you really think two yellows for us and none for them fairly reflects the game?

Yup he should stay up when getting kicked left and right.

Quite probably not. To be honest I didn't think there needed to be any yellows in the first half but, as I said, I didn't see the KDB challenge and still haven't. Once the assistant insisted on saying Sterling had dived, Dean didn't really have much choice.

 

[IWasHere]

Actually didn't think Dean was that bad overall, just the Sterling booking was a rubbish decision.
