[Albion] Ref

[kevo]

I never want to see Darren England ref a Brighton match again. Blew for everything, outrageous decision in the first half to stop a clear attack on goal for no reason, did nothing to stop their incessant, appalling time wasting and hilariously only added on five mins at the end. Absolutely shocking.

He was f***ing TERRIBLE

Truly shocking

Nail head, with feckin great big cow bells.
terrible blatant time wasting, I’d be embarrassed if I was their manager.
glad we never went for him when Potter left, imagine watching that week in week out…

He could have added 90mins at the end we still wouldn’t have scored

 

[Swansman]

He didn't have a great day. Wasn't the easiest of games though.

 

[A1X]

He bought everything from Forest

 

[Cotton Socks]

The lino put up the flag our way, the ref who was miles away pointed the other way after seeing the lino's flag, so the lino changed it! It was very odd & that's without the rest of the timewasting & major injuries to the Forest players on the pitch.

 

[Gazwag]

Wrote a new rule where players dont need to go off after being treated

 

[Telboy]

Didn't even play the full 5 minutes of added on time

 

[Icy Gull]

Shit ref and the booking of Mac was outrageous as was the shove on March down in the corner when he had the ball, right in front of the linesman, who then gave a goal kick.

Just five minutes injury time after 8 subs, a few injuries and blatant time wasting from Forest was criminal

 

[Eeyore]

Apart from a bewildering stoppage to the game and the foul on March (which really was for the linesman to flag) I didn't see any problems. It's noticeable that all the comments relate to decisions that didn't go our way. There were one or two Albion challenges that went unpunished.

Had forgotten about the Mac booking. That was laughable too.

Players don’t need to go off after treatment if the player who caused the injury is booked. I can only remember a player not leaving the field after the high challenge on their player by Caicedo, who was booked for the challenge.

Aww bless let’s hope the poor chap gets a nice easy game to ref next time out

 

[Bozza]

He was completely mugged off by Forest.

We didn't win because we couldn't bloody score, but a refereeing performance like that makes the whole thing feel ten times worse.

Forest came for a draw and a key component was blatant, consistent timewasting at every opportunity. He bought it every time.

And we have a new blight on our game. It was once diving / simulation; it is now feigning serious injury after losing possession. This is now rife in the Premier League with Brentford and Forest being particularly guilty.

No he didn't. An injured player that receives medical attention from a foul and the other player receives either a caution or is sent off does not have to leave the pitch unless the treatment is considered too lengthy

Saying that the ref was shocking. His inaction killed the game stone dead. It had f*** all to do with any main decisions it's about the running of the game and the desire to keep it moving. Trossard just sat there for ages yet no medical staff came on and the ref didn't react to him just sitting there. A decent ref would have turned to the player with the ball on told him to the f***ing game restarted. This ref stood there motionless.

Awful shit game in which we were pathetic at our slow build up crap against a non footballing team who were shocking, backed up by a useless ref.

Isn’t that natural?

Oh and personally I think you are being rather generous as to his performance

Indeed.

When Johnson (was it Johnson?) went down for the second time in short succession, I thought his race was run - he'd got s serious enough injury to put him out of the game. But, no, he was soon back on his feet able to run at full pelt. Tosser.
