Didn't have a single clue last night. It was the same bloke both halves - they didn't swap over.

It's one thing getting close-call offsides right (or wrong) - errare humanes est and all that, but this fuckwit didn't even understand the sodding rules in the first place.

First, he was giving offsides against players who weren't interfering with play, gave some shocking he-was-three-yards-behind-the-player offside, but the one that really made me stopped being fellated by a 90 year-old nun was when the ball was played up to Nathan Elder, who was in an offside position. If he'd received it, he would quite rigtly been flagged offside. However, the defender intercepted it on his chest, passed it to his team-mate 10 yards away, who was about to pass when Nathan came back and challenged him for it. THEN the linesman put his flag up for offside.

Stone the bloody crows.

To be fair, he was equally hopeless for both sides.

He would have been the junior lino for last night as the senior will run the line in front of the benches. Will still be a least a Level 2 Referee. So will ref the middle of Conference football and line at football league. So one would guess he would know the offside law.

You'd like to think so. It wasn't that obvious though.

This was the lino in front of the benches.

He also missed a handball (or at least Forster and I thought it was) and the two footed lunge on Kuipers. Very poor.

I'm not doubting his refereeing qualifications.

I am doubting his parentage.

Can his parentage be doubted for being a wanker?

They're not supposed to "swap over" otherwise they'd be running the line for the same team the whole game.

It's down to the referee on the night. If he asks them to swap over then they have to

I have to say that Surrey Seagull does normally talk utter twaddle! No doubt we will have to put up with this from about 5am at Gatwick tomorrow morning and all day in Austria ;-)

I have to say that the lino last night was dreadful. He gave several clearly wrong decisions, flagging our players offside on at least 3 occasions, that were beyond belief. Just after that Forster was put through and he was a good 3 yards offside and he waved play on!!!!

The other shocking display last night was from Uncle Buck. He blamed all the rumblings and odours on the Thai curry he has just eaten.

The other shocking display was the effing steward who didn't want to let me, my 8 year old son, my mate and my 2 nephews (aged 10 and 9) in the ground as we were about 25 minutes late and then when we saw someone else had sat in our seats in Stand E, I said fair enough, we'd go and sit somewhere else and the reply was "it doesn't work like that". Bit of a jobsworth.
