if you had a blue shirt on. gave us nothing. we've had some **** but that was the most one-sided referee i think i've ever seen. the only decision that went our way was in the second half and he got that wrong.
I maintain my thoughts that in a few years there'll be stories coming out about bribed referees. No doubt in my mind
Morsy down with an head injury, play on while Brum have the ball. Stop play when we're attacking 3 on 2
Absolute cretin of a referree, clueless, totally biased against the Tykes. He wants pensioning off. Total clown.
It can't just be down to poor standards, bad luck and a lack of technology that we keep getting these berks. Absolutely atrocious again today and so inconsistent it calls their ability to honestly officiate the game into question.
He gave us a few easy ones at the end. He wasn't biased. e.g. Yiadom practically caught it in our penalty area once. But the whistle went for summat else.
You're absolutely right in my opinion. They aren't paid much, have very little accountability when they have a shocker (like today) and they are in charge of matches worth millions of pounds in betting. Completely ripe for corruption. Personally feel that the referee for matches shouldn't be announced until the day before. Limit opportunities for corruption.
The linesman failed to flag owt all match. Constantly looking to the ref to make the decision for him.
Whilst I don't defend his performance over 93 minutes , which was undoubtedly beyond a joke , in that particular incident I think he saw the head wound and had to stop the game .
The one piece of sympathy i can have with referees at all levels is that they are having to deal with more and more player CHEATING every week.
Ref has to stop play for a head injury. If a player goes down holding his head he should stop play straight away not after a min when the attacking team loses the ball. He was happy to play on while brum had it
Exactly. Is there anywhere we coyote write to, the FA, the match day officials or anything to register our disgust ?????
I agree GR but surely they should have already become wise to all these tricks. It's obvious thatthey just don't give a ****. ...
If they reffed as they should very few games would finish, I think if one team is down to 6 players the game is abandoned.
When you think about it, everyone's in it together. Players, staff, fans. All part of this great game regardless who you support. Officials? I don't see them in the same light. They just seem to want to row against the tide and come across as wanting to affect games. I wouldn't be surprised to hear them having a good laugh at our expense when they get together.

Just a power trip for some of them. I doubt they are being bribed to influence matches. But whats stopping them having a bet before a game in their wives name or a few of them getting together each week and having an accumulator
Always blame the ref on here. Yes he wasn't great but had we won the match comfortably like we should have done and not thrown away a clear lead he'd not be getting mentioned as much. Easy to attack the ref after throwing away two points that we should never have done.
