Referee blocks goalbound shot - this is the sort of thing that normally happens to us!!

This must be one of the only things left on the list of bizarre ways we've managed to not score a certain goal.

Although in our case, the ref would probably throw himself in front of the shot and make a brilliant fingertip save.

I love seeing things like this. I feel for the ref- busted a gut to keep up with the action. Solid block.

Ref at fault here, I can't see the need for them ever to be in the box

The ref is part of the pitch, I don't know what the players expected the ref to do?

First player is at fault for missing
Second player is at fault for hitting the Ref
Ref shouldn't need to be in the box, but he's got a right to be there if he wishes, and he's got a right to have legs
