Handball against Yiadom when he was tripped whilst lining a shot up, causing him to fall onto the ball.
Agreed that was an appalling decision. Closely followed by the guy who took out Scowen getting a yellow. Ref initially went for his red but then changed his mind whilst he was being treated but it was as clear a red card challenge as you can see. We all just laughed at the Bree offside one
I just laugh now. I know nothing's going to be done about the referees so they're just a bit of entertainment for me. The court jester if you like.
I was in agreement that the Yiadom one was a handball, he fell and grabbed it as clear as day from where I was sitting. Bree being offside and the yellow for the challenge on Scowen were crackers decisions though.
Can't top the referee at my daughter's under 18 game yesterday morning. The Ref was, shall we say, in his senior years. He could barely see, and was wandering around the pitch in his comedy bobble hat. We all thought he might actually die before full time, he looked that frail. After several fiesty challenges going in all over the pitch, the ref's whistle finally went, as the ball was being passed by one player to another across midfield. All the players stopped. Nobody knew what he'd blown for. He gave no signal, and as people started to ask what the whistle was for, he looked a bit lost. I think he'd actually forgotten why he's blown the whistle. His decision? Give the ball to the goalkeeper to kick from her hands.
