After that 2nd half I dont fear any team in this league or in the play offs if need be.However I do fear the refs !!

Agree… shocking refereeing again. Definitely a penalty to them first half, but yet again, Langstaff is virtually garrotted in the second half and… nothing.

Soft penalty to us… Ref swayed by the crowd. Loved it when it was 1-1 and their players are collapsing all over the pitch but once we took the lead, they looked like they had a hot poker shoved up their arse! Fastest substitution in history.

The bad refereeing and inconsistency at this level is a real concern of mine going into the last eight games.

With so much riding on games they really do need to step up. It’s the same with the linesman and fourth official.

The game against Wrexham is massive. The eyes of the footballing world will be watching that game. They cannot be sucked into the Hollywood hype machine.

The National league have got to look at that fixture and put a referee in that’s capable of dealing with the occasion as it’s essentially a cup final. We should have a league one standard referee at least for that game. I won’t hold my breath though.

To many refs have already been sucked into the Hollywood hype machine, that has given them the extra points to be above us
