    Reds Manager Keith Hill received a phone call from Carl Boyeson apologising for Tuesday night's decision to disallow Matty Done's goal

    Read More from the official site...


    NOTE: The number of page impressions the club get on the official site also improves the ammount of money going into the club coffers. We all know we need every penny we get our hands on so if you'd got out of the habit of visiting the club site then could I suggest you visit it more frequently?
    The club are aware of the short comings of the site and plans are in place to rectify these.

    And no mention of one of the most blatant penalties never to be given ....... Hill says he's a good referee, not from what I saw on Tuesday night he isn't

    Exactly.

    It was a truly, truly awful mistake. I can't honestly fathom how he could've even comprehended that Done was offside. It's from when the ball is kicked, not when it arrives at his feet!

    Damned if they do and damned if they don't though.

    No, it doesn't change anything, but too often refs hide and pretend they got it spot on when the rest of the world knows that they've made a ****-up. At the end of the day the officials are human and mistakes will happen. It was a horrendous error (though surely the linesman has to take the majority of the responsibility?) so fair play to the ref for admitting it. Most wouldn't from what I've seen.

    Means nowt to me. He's apologised for being incompetent on just ONE issue. Why has he not apologised or explained why he decided it wasn't a penalty when we had a player chopped in two? Why has he not explained the OTHER offside?

    An hollow apology is just that. Hollow

    But he HAS hid and pretended he got other decisions spot on.

    Admitting to every mistake could open up a right can of worms.
