Portland Bill

There are basically two hand ball laws nowadays, one in the penalty area, and one on the rest of the pitch. Personally I’m not convinced yesterdays was hand ball, but there is far more chance of that being given in the box, it would never have been given anywhere else on the pitch though.

The week before last I watched Cribbs v Melksham, then BMF v Evesham, both as a neutral. Watching Cribbs was a really hard watch, very ‘up and at them’ football, and possibly the worst game I’ve watched all season. Even though Melksham did try to play some football. Watching BMF was very enjoyable though, they play football the right way ( imo ), was a really enjoyable watch. In my view, BMF and Cribbs just how playing styles of teams can be so different, give me BMF every day of the week. I hope they can get the promotion they want. Finally, it’s such a nice feel at BMF, from the music they play, to the good atmosphere and friendliness of the people.

Job for Warnock!.

The biggest issue I have with GJ is the mess he left when he went. He did exactly the same at Yeovil second time round. Zero foundations.

Just put the game on my fire stick. They have about 100 there!!

The ref is clueless, but you know everything…ok!. Perhaps you should carry a whistle and referee from the Dolman!.

Cheating by whom, the players. You want every foul to be a yellow card then. I’m sure referees would like to oblige, but then you would say the ref spoilt the game when it’s 8 v 8.

“He was useless” ok mate When will you be showing us show it’s done then?. Seriously, what do you want out of the officials, other than giving every decision City’s way. It’s boring now seeing the officials slagged off continuously. If you think you could do better, then go for it, get your black kit on, then tell us when you do your first game!.

Committing a foul is not always a yellow card offence. I didn’t see any particular foul that they were “getting away” with and not getting carded. Both teams received 2 yellows each, which seemed fine imo. I watched it on tv thanks. Do you referee often ?.

A referee will ( when he can ) talk to players on first name terms, it’s all about building up a rapport with the players. As for the Vyner challenge that earned him a yellow, a close up camera angle showed he didn’t actually touch him. Did the referee get this close up camera view… no, but because people on here did, then they blame the referee. There are so many experts at officiating on here, that I’m amazed we have a referee shortage in this country….

Great performance, 6 wouldn’t have flattered us tonight. We were so wasteful with the final ball at times, especially in the first half. Second half we were far more composed and relaxed on the ball. Which goes to show the players can still improve immensely.

City look far the better side, going forward time and time again. Simply zero thought or composure going into the final ball though. I honestly cannot remember City ever wasting so many opportunities of finding players in the box. Sam Bell really needs a lesson in relaxing on the ball.

Our approach play at times is fantastic, our final ball, shocking.

No, I haven’t witnessed any of that. All I hear is the other players telling their team mate what he pxxk he was, for getting sin binned.
