Matt Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 Maybe we should just have a sticky thread dedicated to the subject of referee's we seem to discuss the referee every week for one reason or another. Although not seen anyone mention anything about the referee yet, strange that when we lose the first thing blamed it the referee, coincidence? Anyway, In Peltier's interview he said the referee apologised for disallowing it after, and the referee admitted maybe he should have played advantage. All I can say is it's a good job we did win, if we'd have drew or lost I don't think an apology to the player would have sufficed.
Mack Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 Another joke ref. He can shove his apology up his jacksey. Absolutely shocking decision, and having seen it back on SSN it's even worse than it looked in real time.
m00nie Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 yea stuff his apology.. had leicester to win by 2 goals @ 6/1
somebum Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 Maybe he tried leveling it out by sending a Brighton player off.
Father Ted Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 He was so inconsistent as well. In the second half CMS kicked the ball away - nothing. Vassell kicks the ball away - yellow card. There were some identical fouls, some ended up in cards and others nothing. The reffing just gets worse.
Craig Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 What else could he do but apologise. Even it up with another dodgy decision? He made a mistake and he held his hands up and apologised. Very few even do that. We won, it doesn't matter. Let's move on.
Mike the Metal Ed Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 He did have a crap game, but people would clearly rather think more positively after a win.
Corky Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 He got away with it thanks to Yuki. At least he managed to get some control over Brighton's cynical play.
Stand UP... Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 In the second half CMS kicked the ball away - nothing. Vassell kicks the ball away - yellow card. That was unbelievable
nuttytimmy Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 That was unbelievable It's this sort of inconsistency that is so frustrating. Surely all referees are trained the same and to the same set of rules, so what makes simple decision-making so difficult? (kicking the ball away = yellow card, no judgement or inference needed)
Stand UP... Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 the fact that the brighton lad blasted it in frustration (it seemed) and never got booked when it was clear the wistle went, then vassell litterally tapped it and got booked is beyond beleif
acooling08 Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 I think if you are losing and kick the ball away then you don't get yellow carded because you are wasting your own teams time to equalise. If you are winning however then it's different.

Craig Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 what was it with there goalkeeper keeping the ball for over 1 minute, that was discraceful and surely a booking? IT WAS OPEN ****ING PLAY.

Craig is correct. In open play, he could have stood there for as long as he wanted. We really should have challenged him quicker.
Stand UP... Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 IT WAS OPEN ****ING PLAY. Still discraceful
davieG Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 IT WAS OPEN ****ING PLAY. It really is amazing how many fans don't realise this there were loads around me screaming for the ref to book him
thybluefox Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 IT WAS OPEN ****ING PLAY. couldn't stop laughing at people wanting him booked for that. He can stand there for as long as he wanted, and tbh just showed that we were disrupting their play perfectly.
Guest ttfn Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 IT WAS OPEN ****ING PLAY. I was one of those screaming for a booking. Is it not time-wasting? Regardless of whether the ball was in play or not? Having a quick read of the laws of the game, as you do, the referee could (and arguably should) have booked the keeper for "Acting in a manner which shows a lack of respect for the game" I did not realise the ball had to be out of play for it to be time-wasting; my bad. The keeper was still a c*nt.

The keeper was still a c*nt. I'd be amazed if that qualified as that. The ball was in play and he could have been tackled at any time. It's no different from keeping the ball in corner wasting time.
Stand UP... Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 despite me thinking it should have been a booking, admitedly it was in play..however i think most of the reaction of the crowd was angered at the time wasting and unsportsmanship shown, it was 0-0 at the time after all with 15 minutes to go till half time. Its just wrong.

Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 What really annoys me is that there seems to be some unwritten rule that says if a player who is on the cureent losing team kicks the ball away, the ref will do nothing. But if your team is winning you must be time wasting so they must be booked.
Freeman's Wharfer Posted 17 September 2011 Posted 17 September 2011 I think if you are losing and kick the ball away then you don't get yellow carded because you are wasting your own teams time to equalise. If you are winning however then it's different. It doesn't matter if you're winning or losing, time wasting is a booking regardless. By your logic what would happen if a team that was 1-0 down was time wasting and then in the last minute got an equaliser for a point they were very happy with? The time that the team originally winning would have to try and get another goal would have been wasted prior to the equaliser. Time wasting is about BOTH teams not having a full 90 minutes of competitive action. Craig is correct. In open play, he could have stood there for as long as he wanted. We really should have challenged him quicker. I think with the Ankengren thing it didn't deserve a booking but it was certainly not conducive to football being played in the right spirit. I think we got it spot on at that moment though because the first 20 minutes Brighton were taking the mick as an away side with the way they were passing from the back. By holding that shape when the keeper had it were stopping them playing form their full backs and centre backs (something we maintained largely in the second half) and when they were forced to knock it long they weren't even half as effective as before.
