Just wow. Anyone defending that performance needs shooting
He was by far the worst this season and it’s a low bar

Cannot understand the lino not flagging for the pen. What actually is his job?

Are there any decent refs in this league? It was terrible.

I was talking to a local ref recently who spent time with some more higher level league refs.

He said when mic'd up, the ref makes nearly all of the calls and tells the linos to raise their flag or not. The lino will tell the ref over the mic, what he's seen but will not raise his flag until the ref agrees and tells him too. That is why it takes so long for offside flags to go up.

Didn't the same lino also miss a Charlton offside ?
Commentary said he was about 5 yards offside.

This also avoids the ref and linesman going against each other on a decision. Ref as the ultimate call, will defer to the linesman if needed.

He was about 10 yards behind play. Utterly fucking useless.

Edit - that was the other lino

The penalty call alone was so bad, that questions should be asked about his capability. Not that any of the officials seemed up to scratch today.

It's embarrassing. The quality of officiating at this level overall is so bad, everyone knows it, and yet nothing ever gets done.

The penalty call was huge mistake, that said, in general I don't think he was that bad. I liked it when the Charlton keeper went down injured and he stopped the physio from coming on.

I still think the Norwich ref Gavin Ward was the worst. Shocking.
He was nowhere near that bad.

that penalty first half was a shocker but again don’t know how the Lino doesn’t help him out.

The one from Tuesday certainly was okay. He made mistakes, sure. But not on the level of some of them.

Anyone got a replay of the pen?

I thought it was a foul but Milan seemed to want to get a pen rather than take the shot.

Yes you can; double jeopardy only applies if the foul is made when attempting to play the ball (e.g. missed slide tackle). Pulling someone back would still be a red if it's DOGSO.

Surely that can't be right? The ref won't be in a position to determine whether someone's offside or not. That's bonkers.

Nah that’s bollocks you can see he’s trying to get around the ball and is pulled over. Lorna whatsit tried to claim that as well which should tell you how good an opinion it is

All three of them were useless today for both teams. Not biased just bad officials.

It's the refs call as to whether the player, in an offside position, is actual active in the phase of play. They wait for as long as possible to let the game continue without stoppage as much as possible.

I think the lino was the only person on that side of the ground that didn’t see it come off Simms (the crowd laughing almost gave it away).
Did Simms then score from that corner or is that my mind playing tricks?

No she didn’t! She said maybe that’s what the ref was thinking, even said after she didn’t think that.

It was a terrible call, he gets dragged, you could see the movement from miles away. No excuse for the ref.

Definitely a theme at this level. Watching the Stoke game earlier and Hull weren’t given a nailed on penalty too. And then one of the strangest offside decisions I’ve ever seen.
