What planet was Saturdays referees on? Two absolutely shocking decisions which cost us two points. I have not seen such an obvious penalty not given in years and as for the non red card incident, just as bad. I can accept decisions which do not go our way when there perhaps is a little doubt but those two, incredible. I defy anybody to stand up and agree with the referee.
Totally agree with the decisions. That said Heggebo needs to be quicker rather than trying to walk the ball in the net - one touch then bang!
Nailed on penalty. They dont come more obvious.
Dermot Gallagher on Ref Watch: ?That is a penalty?
And Sky Sports pundit Jay Bothroyd has branded the call not to give the home side a spot kick 'ridiculous', as Connor Ogilvie challenged the Norwegian striker in the box.
Elliot Bell?s calls were under the microscope on Ref Watch today, with West Brom boss Ryan Mason dismissed for his protestations over them not going in his team?s favour.
Gallagher was clear in his view Mason and West Brom could justifiably feel hard done by.
The shirt pulling was so blatant it was untrue. What were the lino's doing to assist.
A lesson learnt on both the officials and Portsmouth.
What is the disciplinary process regarding abysmal refereeing decisions ?
Does the Referees Association have a review panel covering blatant errors ?
Is there a post match marking assessment, as with the Amateur game ?
What is the corrective action the RA take to improve their members’ performances ?
Is there any transparency - and to whom ?
We do seem to get the raw end of the deal with ref's. I read recently the last red card that an opposing player had against us in the 90 mins (not after FT) was boxing day 2023. That's an incredible stat considering it feels like we've had a few red's in that time.
Ref got it badly wrong on Saturday and hard to see how he could have missed either. Having said that, I'd still rather this system than VAR.
