    The fight before the goal

    Sad to hear that, your story will be one of thousands similar unfortunately. The FA really need to clamp down on referee abuse but they're happy to let it continue as they just keep coining it in with fines etc.

    The fight before the goal

    Also, most decisions are very subjective. A referee has 1 view & 1 moment to make a decision based on what he saw. Add to that, as mentioned before, the overwhelming majority of people calling out what they believe to be "mistakes" don't know or understand the Laws of the Game. Fwiw I hate VAR...

    The fight before the goal

    The fight before the goal

    He tracks Tella to the near post, nowhere near the flight of the ball. Tbh, there's not much in it anyway & it's pretty telling that Bidwell nor any other player makes any kind of complaint about it.

    The fight before the goal

    I don't disagree that general officiating standards aren't brilliant at the moment but the reasons for this are obvious to anyone who has ever been involved. Ask @Adge or @Sky Blue Pete for their experiences. What people fail to understand is the general standard of refereeing is declining...

    The fight before the goal

    Could just be that referees have an incredibly difficult job, simply call what they see & are human meaning they sometimes make mistakes (probably less than the average player in any given game).

    The fight before the goal

    Thought the ref had a good game personally. He potentially could have seen that incident differently but to my eyes Wilson wasn't completely innocent & a yellow each seemed fair enough. The foul on Bidwell from the resulting corner, yes possibly but didn't effect the goal in any way.

    Correct decision in law but the law is an ass.

    They both lose their man (Gyok v Taylor & Dabo v Beyer) but it goes over Taylor & headed in by Beyer. Not great from either of them.

    Much improved but totally lost his man for the goal.

    Considering the stick he bizarrely gets on here for a supposed lack of tactical acumen, Robins has absolutely done a number on them here.

    Allen should probably do better with both those chances.

    Mad decision. It's either a foul by Gyok or a corner, how could it possibly be a goalkick!? 🤣
