Another piss poor performance from the ref,could have cost us again :angry:
Martin Atkinson another big team charlie, never gives us anything the cheating bent barsteward.
i’ve only seen the game on motd but if you’re on about the 3 penalty claims the ref got them all spot on. well the 3rd one may have been a foul at apush but it was outside the box
should also say that from motd’s highlights that was a great performance. well done to bobby and t’boysi’ve only seen the game on motd but if you’re on about the 3 penalty claims the ref got them all spot on. well the 3rd one may have been a foul at apush but it was outside the box

Why?Er, go on then, I’ll have a stab. Because he brought his arms in front of his body and it hit his arm. Seen em given, seen ’em not.
Bet it would have been given against us at Stamford Bridge.

Correct. Had he not moved then it wouldn’t have been, but he moved his arms TOWARDS the ball.
Anyone notice the penelty blackburn should of had tonight by the same ref ?
The one where he got legged up in the area not sure who fouled him though

I’ll be perfectly honest & say that I can’t ever recall seeing a penalty given in such circumstances.
Yes he moved his arms, but he moved him arms away from his side to deliberately try & avoid them being hit by the ball. The later movement of his body was an instinctive movement that virtually everybody makes when about to be struck by an object in order to make the area of impact on your body smaller.
There was nothing deliberate about the contact of his arm on the ball & had his arm not been there it would have hit his body anyway & had the same result i.e. blocking the shot. Had his arms been away from his body & then blocked the shot then yep its a pen but not in the circumstances that happened on SaturdayIt’s only conjecture but I doubt that any ref at any ground involving any teams would have given that as a handball
The one last night was nailed on though

That’s why everyone thinks you refs are all w@nkers ;)
I maintain it would have been given at Stamford Bridge – or indeed, at the other end of the pitch on Saturday

Since I stepped up to run the line in the contrib leagues this season I’ve had plenty of supporters vocally expressing that opinion to me – Runcorn Linnets fans in particular!!!
For your benefit Griff I’ve asked on the referees association forum what other refs would have given & I’ll let you know the feedback.
I maintain it wouldn’t have been given at Stamford Bridge – or indeed, at the other end of the pitch on Saturday. Us refs are as honest as the day is long
