The Mirror describes the incident:
“N’Zogbia put the head on Wilshere off the ball” :shock: :shock: :shock:As for “he’s been a free agent since Summer” – you obviously haven’t followed the story. There have been major wranglings about his contract a la Bosman and that Scottish guy we signed but who was eminently forgettable (Watson was it?).
Their shirts used to be very similar to ours or am I thinking of someone else !!
Where’s Moreno !! ha ha ha ;)
I think we’re confusing what “making the decision” means.
The 4th official sees something and reports it to the referee. He has no decision to make – he is reporting facts.
The referee then makes a decision what to do about it – in this case actually very little to decide.
4th official reports facts – referee makes decision. Simples.
Apparently punning is a dying art – youngsters just don’t get it.

Explains a lot.
The referee makes the decision, but his team of officials assist him.
They are called “assistant referees”.
What exactly do you think their job is? :roll: :roll:
There is always one team from the top half that drop like a lead balloon from around Jan / Feb time.Liverpool?
Tuesday 20th October 1987. Wigan Athletic 3 Brighton 3.What a first game, no wonder I’ve been hooked ever since!!
Mark Hilditch scored 2, then rattled the cross bar in the last minute. Chris Thompson knocked in the rebound to equalize.I was a 12 year old, and sat in The Phoenix Stand.
The team was:
1. Nigel Adkins
2. John Bitler
3. Barry Knowles
4. David Hamilton
5. Paul Beesley
6. Andy Holden
7. David Thompson
8. Chris Thompson
9. Bobby Campbell
10. Paul Jewell
11. Marco Van Hilditch
Sub. Stuart Storer
Sub. Andy AinscowAtt: 2,392
Can anyone confirm that Nigel Adkins went off injured with one of the subs (Storer or Ainscow) going in goal?
Seem to remember something really random happening.Nigel Adkins certainly was substituted in th egame, but whether it was Ainscow (who came on for him) or Storer who went in nets the record is silent.
