Fucking Stoke, though.

I mean, we should win, because we are significantly better than them. Annoyingly, that's also been true for a decent number of the other times we've faced them there, too.

The only positive I can see about this draw is that it will be good to give Woolfenden and Andrews 90 against a decent team. It really is an uninspiring draw, isn't it.

That's as boring a draw as we could have hoped for.

I haven't watched them yet, but if you're voting against Simms at Middlesbrough, then I'm afraid I am judging you.

Agree with this. Today's was inexcusable, though. It wasn't misinterpretation of an incident or getting a 50/50 wrong, it was not treating a bookable offence with a booking purely because the player had already been booked. Even that, in itself, wouldn't be an issue, as it was hardly serious...

From here it absolutely would be.

All of the teams are below us. It's inevitable two of them would win. I don't care about other teams' results; we have enough of a cushion that only ours matter.

Get a proper reaction on Tuesday, and this result doesn't matter.

Whatever else you say about this performance and result, ultimately, the outcome has been decided by the referee's inability to do his job.

I entirely agree with you. He's not up to the job.

He didn't want to send someone off for kicking the ball away. That's all. That means that he's not fit to do the job, but it's the explanation.

He just didn't have the guts to do his job properly. That's almost worse.

The statements that we are conceding too many and the referee has cost us through ineptitude are not mutually exclusive. It doesn't matter if you need to tighten up a bit or not, every team has the right to expect better refereeing than that, and referees' performances should not affect the...

Shut up.

Absolute fucking c**t. That's shocking. The referee has determined the result due to not having the guts to do his job properly. I'm absolutely raging about that. Raging.

Hang on, has he booked Kitching for kicking the ball away?

That's not anywhere close to a true reflection of how the game's going. That's extremely frustrating. I can accept refereeing errors when it's because they've not seen something, but when they've just bottled it like that, that's not acceptable. You can't give a card for something, and then...

Fuck's sake. Fucked over by shit refereeing here.

If you give a yellow for that offence once, you have to again. It doesn't matter if he's on a yellow. That's his problem, he should have thought of that. Very, very poor refereeing.
