Just booked Eccles for shooting and Hurst does exactly the same?
What’s the rationale??

Total disgrace that ref. Ok Ipswich was the better team but hurst should have gone and we would’ve won .

Absolute joke of a decision by the ref to not send of Hirst. Just another consistently, inconsistent official. After that decision, every other time someone kicks the ball away they got booked. Their keeper was MOTM, boy we missed BTA, Saka & Torp.

Pete we cant blame the ref for today , we were poor and comfortably beaten second half
It was a poor decision but ultimately we didnt get it and we just werent good enough

We would have won if he’d been consistent the whistle went ages before the shot it’s just not ok

You aren't going to win games if refs constantly give decisions against us.
We got away with it last week against Charlton when the ref decided to miss a red card and a penalty against MVE.

Well the ref potentially cost us the game, not that we were that good and the ref potentially cost us the game against Wrexham with off sides etc...

We will hopefully get a decision our way soon.

It's up there as one of the worst decisions I have seen in a Coventry City game in recent times.
Oddly enough, the one that I remember the most in recent times was another "Premier League referee" Anthony Taylor away at our good friends Preston. Fadz tries, and misses, to pull down the Preston striker going through on goal. The striker misses the chance, and Taylor brings it back for a penalty and doesn't red card Fadz even though he was last man and did not make a genuine attempt to play the ball.
I think this one is worst, because I would argue it wasn't even subjective. It was the exact same situation as Eccles, the one Ipswich players were screaming at the referee to give. It's just beyond comprehension because there is literally no "I can see why the referee did x" perspective.

We were not poor in the first half best team easy for 40 minutes he stays on and scores the crucial 2nd goal.We were poor 2nd half chasing the game after they scored the 2nd.

We've had blatant penalties turned down and that disgrace today do you think theres a bias starting against us?

Let’s not start blaming the ref for defending shit and being miles off it, yes it was a second yellow but we need to look at ourselves

@Sky Blue Pete thinks we played excellent, and then he sobered up

No one is, they just want to know why simple decisions go against us every week.
I agree with this. Our squad is being stretched and we lost to someone with a better depth. That’s where our focus should be.

One of those times I wish we could hear his explanation, but of course we'll never get the luxury of that. He'll probably offer a lip service explanation to Lampard or one of the coaching staff, then sod off home feeling really pleased with himself for a job well done and that'll be that.
Was he the only reason we lost today? No. Poor defending cost us, and we can't keep having to rescue games like we are at the minute because it's going to catch up with yoy eventually. But that doesn't mean the ref should be allowed to get away with such disgraceful inconsistency, especially when there are examples of it at this level pretty much every week now.

It’s a bias in favor of Ipswich. It’s always been there.

Every week the referee is accused of bias and gives decisions against us - we’ve lost only 2!

We got away with it last week. Today we had no chance against that officiating.

Thought considering the circumstances we matched them , don’t think they were anything special , fine margins because he booked Eccles by his own standards Hurst is off .. wasn’t a 3-0 game some sloppy defending let us down , thought Rudoni wasn’t his usual self today

I don’t like to blame ref’s but thought some of the decisions today were poor, Hurst not getting a second yellow for the same offence as Eccles was unbelievable and it didn’t look like a free kick against EMC in the lead up to the first goal, I could be wrong as I didn’t see it back.
I also didn’t see if the keeper handling outside the box would’ve prevented an obvious goal scoring opportunity, but given where the free kick ended up taking place I am assuming not, so a yellow is right. Unless anyone has a still of the hand ball?

1. Yes it should have been a 2nd yellow based only on consistency. Ipswich fans are saying he didn’t hear the whistle over the crowd but he clearly pulled up before kicking it away.
2. Yes we (probably) would have won if there was a red card.
3. I can’t be bothered looking up the wording of “deliberate” handball but possibly a red missed there as well.
4. No complaints about the loss. Once there was no red we had lots of time to regroup but were outplayed although the final result was flattering to Ipswich.
I don’t want games to be decided by red cards for either of those “minor” offences but rules are rules and the ref had a stinker (again)

The club should put in an official complaint. And the incompetent knob should be suspended. And made to watch Leicester every week..

So in relation to handball, it’s only deemed a red if it prevents a clear and obvious goal scoring opportunity.

Rules says deliberate handball is a red card offence! It doesn't say if you think it is!
