Not the worst ref we've had at KMS but on today's performance along way from being the best

Dreadful performance.  West Side linesman no better.  How do these people stay in a job?

Disagree - he HAD A clue - just wait for the Ref to decide on Throw ins etc and then agree with him !

Typical Graham Salisbury performance. I gave him 1 for turning up.

The West Stand lino was so inept that a person picked at random from the crowd would probably have done a better job.

The thing that really got me about Salisbury was his leniency regarding tackles from behind, to which several Peterborough players were partial. The first one, on Marquis, he waved play on because the ball had been played, ignoring the fact that the tackler had played Marquis's ankle with the other leg. Then he gave a free kick for one on Copps that was also a nailed on booking - but no card. That sort of tackle was outlawed a decade ago. Maybe that's the last time he studied the laws.

Typical Graham Salisbury performance..

Maybe that's the last time he studied the laws.

Maybe thats the last time he applied any of them correctly

As you say the tackles from behind were dreadful - but it was his sheer inconsistencty that stuck in my craw.

Example 1 He pulled up Tommy Rowe after about 5 minutes (correctly imo) for a shirt pull. He gestured "a pull"
Second half in exactly that same spot and with him in the same spot our Player (I had a feeling it was Rowe but probably wrong) was yanked back by twice as much shirt AND had an arm round his neck NOTHING given

Example 2 He gave them a Throw in when Garrett ? stole about 10 yards when taking a throw. I wish they would all take such action
So what happened when their 11 did that funny backheel into touch which took a Rovers touch on the way out. Their bloke made a full 20 yards downfield . From 10 yards in his own half to 10 yards into our half. What happened ? Bugger all

And what the hell was going on with the Substitutions ? Muppetry of the highest order

Would love to know who voted him at 3 or 4. Must've been at a different game to me.
