I dont like the amount of times i've had to say it this season, but we have truly had some ***** this season. Where do they get them from? Do the away team bring them on the coach with them from wherever they are travelling from?</p> For him to allow the 2nd goal was a complete joke. How the hell were we gonna keep it out when the keeper was flat out on the floor? Im not sure if it was a foul or not, but if the keeper goes to ground from a challenge, it can result in a drop ball.</p> Also for us to get 2 yellow cards, and for them not to get one was ridiculous. I thought there could have been 8 minutes of stoppage-time alone for the time their keeper wasted, the *****.</p> Ooh im angry today after that ( but not at all with the players, I personally think we did ok. But they are far from being a good team - well, on that display anyway. Sunderland are a mile ahead of them.</p>
agree It was quite clear ref wasnt giving us owt when he let their players do what they wanted how that Fagan didnt get booked late challenge on Hecky first half, deliberate handball then his reaction when Hecky was late challenging him and Hecky gets booked, consistency eh?
exactly mate Its decisions like that that infuriate fans more than anything. We all know they have a thankless job, and that mistakes DO happen. Even the odd big blunder here and there can be forgiven - but when referee's are blatantly favouring one side (which IMO he did today) I have no sympathy for them when they get abuse.
That's what I said to me mate, there has'nt been a better team than Sunderland at Oakwell. Anyway the ref was a joke. reid should have broke net an like every game we missed are chances and it has cost us dearly. Or well roll on Ipswitch. 5 hour on coach going to be a right laugh. COME ON YOU REDS.
At the time I thought the goal should have stood... As there was no foul by their bloke. However, play should have stopped immediately as he'd suffered a head injury. So in theory, it shouldn't have stood.
RE: At the time I thought the goal should have stood... but the referee couldnt have seen that the injury was serious in the amount of time he had before the ball went into the net so the goal shouldve stood.
RE: At the time I thought the goal should have stood... The referee couldn't see anything. Full stop.
Scott Mathieson Is an abysmal referee. First I remember of him was in 2001/02 at Bramall Lane when he gave EVERYTHING to Sheffield United until the end when he gave us a few free-kicks in nothing areas. Every time I've seen him since he's been abysmal.
