I want to know what the difference was between the foul against us for that and the non foul for a similar one on our player in their penalty area beforehand. I said at the time if that was out of the area, he’d give a free kick and sure enough he did!Giving that shoulder barge as a foul was odd.
Poor , bottled what was a penalty and possible red card.Didn’t get to grips with their time wasting and failed to punish a couple of their players for blatant fouls.
Disagree, it actually usually means the refs are poor.I was always think people saying refs are poor have unconscious bias about boro, it normally stems from a chip on their shoulder mentality.
Usually that happens when every agrees they are poor. Few have said he was one of the better oneDisagree, it actually usually means the refs are poor.
Very good point, he added an extra minute on in reality, most matches last season got 5 minutes extra.The new time wasting tactic of going down till the ref stops the game and then not having treatment so they don’t have to go off the pitch is a joke. He fell foul of this possibly 4 times.
If a ref has to stop the game for someone who is supposedly injured then they should be forced to leave the field of play wether they have treatment or not.
