Ref tomorrow (4 Viewers)

John Busby

I can't remember anything controversial with him, either good or bad so I take that as a good thing.

The games this season were us willing 3-0 at home v Bklackburn and losing 2-0 away at WBA.

Our overall record not great with him (P17, W5, D4, L8), but he has overseen the last game v Boro in 22/23 when we drew 1-1 with them directly before the play-offs and the 5-4 win up at Sunderland.

On Tuesday we have a Premiership ref, not sure which one.

Is it a new thing that we have threads on referees every week? And what does such a thread offer?

 

[torchomatic]

Was the Barnsley game the one where Vik missed the pen. Did Brad save it?

Nothing wrong with stats, stats and more stats.

Perhaps an insight into what we can expect eg if they issue lots of reds or penalties. Tbf I've not seen one for other games but as these are quite crucial I thought others may be interested as I was.

I'm really sorry that you had to open the thread, read and post. Completely my fault, please accept my heartfelt apology.

Hadn't noticed that, I think it probably was. Certainly an early season game and away.

something to talk about i guess.

 

[False9]

The linesman for the Bristol v sheffield first leg is a cov fan

No issue my end. Was just asking the question.

Had no idea you were so passionate about ref statistics. Completely my fault, my apologies.

 

[Domo]

can you now both kiss now or what?

 

[rob9872]

No tongues, but if he bends over I'll dry bum him

 

[blunted]

We need strong refs in all the games now.
We have suffered some bad game changing decisions recently.
I have never subscribed to the idea that decisions even out over the season.

Andy Madley on Tuesday.

 

[AJB1983]

busby also did sheff Wednesday away which disallowed the first simms goal cos of a ‘foul’ on keeper, but allowed the last minute winner.

 

[Captain Dart]

A chance to have a good old moan (usually).

 

[Potbellypig]

Is it a new thing that we have threads on referees every week? And what does such a thread offer?

It's a discussion board.

Yep-Andy Fox. Have been on a few games with him over the years.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Believe he was in the year above me at school

 

[honestken]

Was the Barnsley game the one where Vik missed the pen. Did Brad save it?

Yes and yes.

 

[Mcbean]

Because if we get be of the muppets we had recently we may as well resign ourselves to loosing

 

[harvey098]

Yes and yes.

I remember Gyok being crucified on here after that miss. Would love to see some of the reaction back now, knowing what he went on to become

He must have been diving out the way and low and behold it hit him
