Carey 6 Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Ref that missed John Terry’s hand ball at the gate season before last. He was also the ref that sent off Flint when he ruffled Cunninghams hair, although Cunninghams reaction didn’t help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that might be hard to believe, but Eltringham is awful. Stroud is a mini-Hitler. Eltringham just cannot get any decisions right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

97Red Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 For me this season, I'm watching out for a certain Darren Bond. His performance last season at home to Derby, in what was a crucial game for both clubs, was not great IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Army 75 Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I personally find the standard of refereeing really poor in general in the championship. The names already mentioned plus Scott Duncan and one I really don’t like Gavin Ward IMO we will be getting a poor referee regularly. As for the linesman . Well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendyredredrobin Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Not sure about the Birmingham game but I remember the Preston game very well. He was a joke, allowed Preston to professional foul every time we got the ball and waste heaps of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well At this level, the “assistant referees” are pretty useless. Rarely get offsides right, and don’t see any foul play, even if it’s only 5 yards in front of them. I appreciate that officiating can be a thankless task at the best of times, but some of the performances that we see in the Championship really don’t help either players or fans to show them much respect.

AppyDAZE Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Good reffing today. Didn't bottle that ridiculous JA tackle decision (red all day) and didn't let the crowd get to him at all. The only slight thing maybe was booking our player for kicking the ball away but letting their players do the same thing all first half. Well done, referee today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 60's & 70's we used to have Mr Toseland from Kettering. Whether home or away he continually gave 50/50 decisions and some 60/40 decisions against not just City, but Rovers also when he reffed them.

Well done, referee today Most importantly he didn't fall for Stoke's attempts to level it up 10 v 10, with the crowd yelling for a red card every challenge. Notably Ince after Bentley beat him in the air, flat out holding his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
