    Yet again a Premier League ref gives the 'big' club the decisions against us and probably cost us 2pts today. How theirs was a penner and ours wasn't is beyond bewildering.

    Owls had one shot on target all game, gifted by the ref. Stinks.

    Doesn’t mean they aren’t poor refs though

    I agree, but........

    We had:
    60% possession
    6 versus 1 shots on target.

    We have to be more ruthless!

    It's not always the fault of others.

    Having not been there, I am guessing TB shot(s) were very weak, but on target?
    Just a guess!

    Im not saying we don't have to improve in our conversion rate but today was another example where we weren't given a fair crack of the whip by the officials and its far from an isolated incident hence my post!

    Yes it can.
    But so. Can our ability not to convert the possession we have into goals.

    Correct but ref single handedly determining a team that had no shots on target should given a goal start really does not help

    How the **** did he only come up with 3 minutes added time. The Wednesday kid was down for 5 minutes, minute 75-80. I watched the clock throughout.

    I also hate the constant excuses we make against the officials, when we've dominated and still failed to take our chances and see off a genuinely poor team.
    No it doesn't help when the officials give an appalling pen against us and even worse, they refuse to give us what looked like a more obvious one. But WE are still our own worst enemy here, not the officials.
