[Pyro Pete 1,907]

Referees in this country are incompetent. Pure and simple.

We witness it regularly in the Premier League, where every decision is double checked by VAR in slow-motion, using state of the art technology, by a team of four VAR officials.

And they still get it wrong.

Rowe taken off?

Wagner not looking for three points, then…..

 

[The Real Buh 3,446]

I’ve just taken another look at it and, I’m sorry, you can just tell the ref has run this situation in his head before. He 100% has rehearsed this situation before he’s made that decision. He’s wanted to do that for a while. 

This tin tin looking jobsworth has been up late listening to linkin park and clenching his fist.

Keep your eyes peeled everyone, this one’s got an absolute clanger of a decision in him, I can feel it.

[GRB2 34]

Sky sports website says he was gesturing to the referee that a WBA player should have been booked too? Either way, it’s soft from all angles and it’s just made the afternoon harder.

With you in charge it would be just a couple of players on each side by the end!

I'd have no problem with that if the refs were being consistent.

[unique 435]

Nunez doesn’t know where the back of the net is….Rowe does.

Will be amazed if the substitutions pay off….

I didn't see the West Brom player do it, but if he did, then he obviously should've been booked as well. 

Quite - inconsistent refereeing within a game is one of my bugbears. Players can’t possibly know where they stand.

[daz 72]

Rowe and Barnes off batth and Hanley on, fml 😑😑 park bus time. 

[Jim Smith 2,325]

So we take off all attacking threat. Great. 

[Capt. Pants 4,262]

Wagner was never going to be right whatever subs, but they look sensible.

Great to see Hanley back.

[Pyro Pete 1,907]

WBA score.

[cambridgeshire canary 6,756]

Sainz off, rowe off and losing.

 

Game over

[unique 435]

Well what a surprise……

[GodlyOtsemobor 2,333]

The changes helped us hold out then... Now 90% of our attacking threat is off so who's going to drag us back into it!!??

[littleyellowbirdie 2,563]

I'm switching off. If w*nker referees are going to kill the game like this then there's no point.

[TheGunnShow 5,957]

Great, that rearrangement didn't work.

And as soon as you say this..

 

I said it was not the right game for his return. Rusty as a bucket in the rain.

[king canary 7,632]

3 big central defenders, can't deal with a simple cross into the box.

Dreadful decisions by Wagner yet agaim.

No two events on a football pitch are the same, and every referee has a different level of tolerance for dissent and backchat. It's literally impossible for rules to objectively be applied consistently. Of course you can find inconsistencies even in the same referee's decisions in the same game, because they have to analyse things in a split second and then make the 'right' call.

Unfortunately the partiality of supporters coupled with the the human brain's negativity bias and the importance of every key decision mean that the average fan will always think referees are sh*t/biased/inconsistent.

[Capt. Pants 4,262]

Pathetic from McCallum and Stacey there.

Game over.

[Michael Starr 519]

This could get ugly now. Sainz is such a fool

[Dean Coneys boots 1,400]

It’s going to be a long second half and, I predict, no joy in it 

[unique 435]

All those centre halves, and not one could get their f’g head on the ball…..

[Spillay 180]

Well that was a complete waste of an hour. Feel for the City fans there today 😞 

[daz 72]

 bye bye wags,  papering over the cracks vs crap teams. 

[Jim Smith 2,325]

How much more time are we going to waste on this retarded t**t of a coach. Really does my head in. Such a waste.

They've got discretion at the end of the day. He made an extreme decision he didn't have to. W*nker of a referee. To hell with him,.

The manager is a plank.
