A Horse With No Name Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 After the women's WC I thought refs were going to add on extra time for pretty much anything resulting in 8,9,10 minutes extra. Today we had 9 second half subs, at least 2 injuries where the physio came on and we had 4 minutes added on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 Think it has been a bit low in general at home for us this season. Even though there was a stoppage for injury first half, just 2 minutes there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the clampdown on simulation and the one on holding at set pieces? Because the officials soon forgot and went back to their old ways. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elhombrecito Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 As usual, at the start of the season they'll announce with great fanfare all the things they are going to "solve" this season. Five games in, without fail, it's always completely forgotten. As predictable as night following day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 Ive looked around a few games. Some major numbers but a definite drop-off..still ours has felt lower than the new average this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winsaw Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 To be fair I thought the ref let the game flow very well today not very many unnecessary stoppages, made the whole match more enjoyable to watch so was not surprised when only 4 went up as really didn't feel like the game had been stopped that long, one of the better refs we seen down the gate 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtongreight Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 Other championship games today had up to 20 minutes added. I think it’s more to do with deliberate time wasting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right but that doesn't mean you shouldn't add on the appropriate time for other stoppages. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoystonFoote'snephew Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 Thankfully we don't have VAR so extra time doesn't need to be added after the plonker in the VAR booth took 6+minutes to arrive at an incorrect decision.

Silvio Dante Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 I think outside of the subs, the ball was in play a lot. As an example the incident early in the second half where we got two advantages in a row from (I think) fouls on James then Pring that could (certainly for the latter) have been yellows, the game continued with no stoppages for about five minutes. The ref let the game flow a lot and didn’t pull up minor infringements - That really helped the game flow. The overall stoppage number didn’t shock me and was reflective of a pretty good referee performance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The overall stoppage number didn’t shock me and was reflective of a pretty good referee performance. Fully agree with this. We didn't actually kick off until about 3.02 as the Lisa Fillingham tribute (which was beautifully done) started late then over ran. I thought the ref only added 2 mins to not let the game run too late. But yes he let a lot of tackles go and didn't stop the game unneccessarily.

They’re not that sort of team anyway. Reason most games against them are entertaining & relatively easy to referee. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markthehorn Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 They don’t seem to bother that much adding time on in the first half but do at the end . Birmingham probably wish there wasn’t any at all ! Mind you not as much as Sheff U - clearly their manager thought it was very harsh .

Silvio Dante Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 As an aside, when checking the scores at our Fulltime Villa were 1-0 Down and 5000-1 to win in live play. With the additional minutes that are being played there definitely seems to be a gamble on for games that prior seemed a lost cause at 89… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocking Red Cyril Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 (edited) The standard of the referee and linesmen is generally clueless and inept. Why should we expect the time keeping official to have any idea and be better ? I must add thought the officials today where better than the normal dross.

TV Tom Posted September 17, 2023 Report Share Posted September 17, 2023 To be fair you could see both teams were trying to win the game so there wasn’t any time-wasting tactics, I thought four minutes was about spot on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
