Google Bot 3,929 Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) Mr Stroud misses the handball and now puts a complaint in about us?! What a class A ****. Same idiot who dished out 6 cards to us vs stoke earlier in the season. 5 at the weekend... Loves to make himself known.

Branston Pickle 4,149 Posted February 9, 2023 Is that from our non-penalty? If so that is pretty outrageous - the reaction looked pretty muted by comparison to some we’ve seen, particularly when it was a blatant miss from the ref. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 8,034 Posted February 9, 2023 Just to repeat what I have said for years. A ref makes a bad error and players pay the penalty. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 10,762 Posted February 9, 2023 Really wasn't anything bad from our players - certainly no worse than any big club getting a decision against them in the Prem every single week. Stroud is a p*ss poor ref and maybe this is a way of covering for his continuous failure to do his job even vaguely well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
It's Character Forming 1,204 Posted February 9, 2023 Wow, that takes some front to argue. It puts the penalty decision in the spotlight, which they'd probably have been better not doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HazzaJet 267 Posted February 9, 2023 If it’s for the incident where we should have had a penalty but were only given a corner then I think they should look at it on the replay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canarydan23 4,761 Posted February 9, 2023 He kissed the ball. Honestly. Professional referees are less competent that Conservative politicians. Every one of then needs sacking. Replace them with a randomly selected group of people and officiating would improve. It's an embarrassment. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For the future 84 Posted February 9, 2023 I hope the club challenges this as this was a hand ball that’s why the players complained to the referee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Satriales 993 Posted February 10, 2023 Wagner said in this mornings presser that the EFL confirmed we should have been awarded a penalty. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 4,149 Posted February 10, 2023 It does seem it’s one of those where we’ll accept the charge, however ridiculous. The efl confirmed it’s a pen, everyone knows it was, the protest was muted in comparison to many, yet the charge is still there. DW’s quote says it all - before answering the question about it he said “I have to give myself a second before I answer, so I look serious….” ie he/we think the charge is just taking the ****. The annoying aspect is that at 0-3 it probably made no difference, but ‘could’ have done…who knows with 1/4 of the game to go the fillip of scoring might have reinvigorated the team (remember Forest). Of course back on planet earth we’d have probably missed…. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBaldOne66 768 Posted February 10, 2023 Stroud didn’t even last one season on the Premier League list as he was so bad! Tells you all you need to know, and to make matters worse the EFL even confirmed he got the decision WRONG, but no charge for him is there? Shows how stupid the people actually running football are sadly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Angry 2,016 Posted February 10, 2023 Whether the referee was right or wrong should be completely immaterial as to whether the club will be found or guilty or not-the decision should be based purely on the action of the players in confronting the referee. In the replays I’ve seen, there doesn’t seem to be anything out of the ordinary so I would be surprised if the club was found guilty-but if that was the case I doubt they would have made the charge in the first place.

shefcanary 2,950 Posted February 10, 2023 Unfortunately My Angry is right. It doesn't matter if the decision being complained about is right or wrong, it is the actions of the players thereafter that are the subject of the charge, which they will look at in isolation of the original decision. I know this is one of a few subjects I bore people with, but this is where a strong leader would have taken control of this matter. Hanley in his own meek way did not, now the club will have to pay for his lack of leadership! It's another area of the game where he doesn't do enough (getting in the refs faces). Referees do not have a problem discussing their decisions with the captain, however vociferously that debate may be (Keane was quite good at this at ManUre). Such a shame our captain is Hanley ...

Branston Pickle 4,149 Posted February 10, 2023 It’s quite right that the ‘rights and wrongs’ of the refereeing decision are irrelevant, the players are meant to behave professionally whatever. I think what is irksome is that it definitely didn’t feel they went anything like over the top in their protestations - I’ve seen far, far worse. The way of things is that we’ll probably admit to it and get a small fine, even though it’s garbage. In another point, I think that’s an astonishing number of clear-cut penalties not given to us this season, starting with Max vs Wigan, where he was lucky not to have his leg snapped. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
