Calculus Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 ...not great by any means, but he got a lot more right than the crowd around me in the Dolman. Some people just have to moan.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City Rocker Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 How is the result relevant? He got a lot of decisions badly wrong. Apparently his Championship debut today. Must do better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldlandReddies Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Says it all when a team wins a game and still boo the ref off the pitch. He was clueless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelRobartes Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 He was abysmal, only reffing one team and ignoring all the pushing and shoving they were doing. Yet as soon as our lads even thought about touching them they invariably went down and won a free kick. I felt sorry for Baldock, at one point their centre half tried to enter him and he still didn't get a free kick, poor lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aizoon Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I wasn't there so I can only guess. Was he one of those who is so determined to prove that he's "brave" and "not a homer" by giving everything to the away side? Having done quite a bit of umpiring, I do recognise the temptation, particularly when you're starting out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Bad, gave them loads, but linesman in front of the Dolman was far, far worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke_bristol Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 looked very fat and unfit!! well of the pace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_Hart Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 His assistant was worse, he didn't get anything right all game apart from a few offsides. I could tell at the start of the game when the referee was walking around the pitch, after his warm up, as if he was gods gift and that showed in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashtonphil Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Was worried he'd give a bad decision that might cost us. He didn't deal with the physical elements of the game well at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Compared to many Championship refs he was exceptionally lenient and although that was frustrating at times it was refreshing to see. Its a mans game after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC101 Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 To be fair there were some decisions, such as the Davies dive, that he managed to get right where some other refs might have got wrong, but there was a lot more wrong decisions than right (Cunningham was never a foul, let alone a yellow card, and the Orr handball which I saw from the EE but he didn't from a few yards away).

Red-Robbo Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 One of the worst I've seen at AG for ages. Add his name to the role of shame along with D'Urso, Rennie and Kettle. What part of Ipswich do you think he grew up in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedUn Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Bad, gave them loads, but linesman in front of the Dolman was far, far worse. Bloke within earshot of me said it was like having the three blind mice in charge. Very poor, especially second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Cunningham's was definitely a foul, he clipped the player which caused the ball to come loose, with it being not far from the box its understandable why a yellow was also awarded.

The Humble Realist Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Think the ref was not keen to give free kicks to the attacking side A couple of times players pushed n shoved and ending up fouling each other...ref decided no one fouled at all!

Yeah could be the case, from where I was stood in the EE it looked like he cleanly got the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
