Has been changed to an even bigger C£%t then! Cannot believe he got Saka & Frank mixed up for the foul and booked Saka! Ref must have heightism aside that he is bloody useless

That isnt what happened

These sky pricks are gutted

Important signing for us really wasnt it the defensive presence and reading of the game second to none atm

 

[Finham]

Until sky play it 590000 times but don't mention the ones against us on Monday.

Luckily there can be no retrospective as it was seen and punished at the time (albeit ref punished the wrong player).

 

[Johnnythespider]

Tbf Onyeka challenge probably a red

Yellow for me

Ref so inconsistent. No protection for tats. Misses the possible red for Onyeka but gives tats yellow. Books Thomas for shirt pull (fair enough) but then ignores 3 or 4 clear ones from them.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Albion crowd is as toxic as I’ve seen for quite a while.

The players look scared to do anything to avoid pissing them off.

 

[Tile Hill Phil]

Got to turn our away form around at some point and if we can’t do it against the team in 21st we never will, this is the game we’ll do it 4-1 cov

Great to be 2-0 up, but the talking point has to be the awful referee...what on earth is he doing ?
Tats booking-incorrect.
Rudoni pull back-incorrect.
...and many, many more

Yep bit worried about the bookings we’re racking up think there will be a few subs soon

 

[Finham]

Yellow for me

It was the classic filthy "studs down the back of the shin". Viciously enjoyable, like something from Mean Machine.

 

[Nick]

It's not conspiracy to point that out

 

[SkyblueTexan]

I was reading Eric Ramsay’s lips in the dugout saying “Fuck… still down 2 even after paying off the ref..damn what will it take?”

 

[mark82]

That isnt what happened

I'm not actually sure what he booked him for. Not sure there was a foul. Maybe dissent. I know I made a joke about it, but genuinely don't think it can be a mistaken identity thing.

 

[mark82]

Yellow for me

What did you do?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

I'm not actually sure what he booked him for. Not sure there was a foul. Maybe dissent. I know I made a joke about it, but genuinely don't think it can be a mistaken identity thing.

It looked like Tats tried to pull him down after he lost the ball

 

[Shannerz]

He already has.

Tbf, the MvE and Thomas bookings were tghe right decisions. Both professional fouls to prevent a break.

Saka's wasn't soft, it was an unfathomable case of mistaken identity. There's no question at all that Onyeka deserved a yellow.

 

[Nick]

It wasn't dissent as the ref pointed back to the other side of the pitch when booking him.

 

[SkyBlueAussie]

This idiot is going to send someone off, and it will probably be the wrong one.

 

[Nick]

It looked like Tats tried to pull him down after he lost the ball

Just like their player did to rudoni?

 

[Joe King]

I'm not normally one to moan about the refs, but this one is so one-sided! He's been dreadful!

 

[PVA]

What a difference Onyeka has made

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Just like their player did to rudoni?

Just saying what he got booked for

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The referee is the biggest threat to our lead in this game.

 

[Paul Anthony]

That isnt what happened

When he booked him, he pointed towards where the tackle happened.

 

[AJB1983]

These sky pricks are gutted

Michael Brown - what a prick.
Apparently nothing wrong with the shoulder barge to the head that nearly knocked out Tats.

 

[duffer]

Game management?

Twenty minutes or so in with just one goal? It's all about opinions mate, and I respect people differ, but personally I'd rather go for the throat whilst they're rattled than let them settle back down or even bring them onto us.

Just mho obviously, but I'd rather save the game management for the last ten or fifteen, when we're coasting four nil up.

 

[no_loyalty]

I'm not normally one to moan about the refs, but this one is so one-sided! He's been dreadful!

Same ref who sent Thomas off at Blues, he’s absolutely dreadful.

 

[shmmeee]

Nice early goal and finish the game off then everyone on a yellow or at all tired off.

 

[Great_Expectations]

Sakamoto is targeted every single game - and never, ever gets any protection from the ref.

 

[Nick]

 

[Otis]

Strange half.

Lots of sloppy passing from us, especially long balls from the back. WBA have really been giving it everything in terms of energy and passion, but have been so powerpuff up front.

Onyeka has been excellent and Rudoni, very dangerous.

Feel sorry for Saka because they have been very physical with him .

Need to make sure Albion don't pull one back, as it's very scrappy at times.

 

[covcity4life]

It's not conspiracy to point that out

Of course it is

They dedicated first 20 mins of show to cov

It's clear prutten loves us too

Sky do not hate us. They kiss arse of whoever the top teams are every season and now it's our turn to be the main guys.

 

[Nick]

Nothing silly now

I was on about half time. Even rudonis goal it was all about wba

 

[Paul Anthony]

Fancy coming out for the second half, lads?
