    Barnsley and Referees

    IMO it isn’t a coincidence that we are getting a raw deal from referees game after game - and the average age of this young squad.

    Relatively inexperienced players that are not that great at playing the ref.
    The players need to start making more noice about these ridiculous decisions that’s going against them.
    Something else Collins needs to get a grip on.

    Not sure Orient played the ref , it was just a ridiculous decision on this occasion .

    To tell the truth I don't think our fan base want us to be the club you want us to be .

    Very Corinthian our fan base in my opinion .

    I ain’t a clue what you just said.

    But I’m not just talking about the penalty.
    There’s also the Cole penalty claim and the two yellow cards for Cosgrove and neither of them were fouls.
    Plus the general trend of Barnsley not getting any referee decisions in their favour.
    I don’t usually comment about refs but it’s getting ridiculous now.
    The commentators discussed it and Collins spoke about it after the match.

    Plus making more noise or goading the ref is a bookable offence

    There is nothing Collins can do about it , if you remember last season Duff spoke to Hackett & other ref officials on several occasions for explanations but it did not make a jot of difference , Collins may have question marks but you cannot blame him for rank bad officials , they are third rate same as the league we play in .
