How on earth has he only found 2 mins added time
They time wasted from the 10th minute onwards
I was expecting around 8 mins

[Dare to dream!]

i think 4 would have been fair but 2 was ridiculous

[PaulRover08]

I’ve never seen 2 minutes at the end of a game ever, let alone one that had so much time wasted, 3 subs and a goal.

It’s never ever 2 at the end of the game never mind a game where every available minute was wasted

[StocktonRover]

Let’s not overlook the 50 seconds he wasted for them delaying our free kick and then measuring out 10 yards when the nearest opposition player was 20 yards away.......

[mushRTID]

I guessed 4 or 5 min then when I saw grant going mental I knew it was bad news.

He did this at least twice

[dickos1]

I’ve never seen 2 at end of a game
Never mind a game like that

[eastender]

Only 1 sub in second half = 30 secs , so he probably added  90+ secs for time wasting.

[roversdude]

I’ve never seen anyone unbooked and rarely 2 minutes at the end of a game - warning after warning to get on with it and then just turns his back

That was just unbelievable...

After 50 years, I can put up bad results and even shit performances against a team of cloggers but the tipping point is fast approaching when I repeatedly see idiots like this ruining football matches.
 Is it honestly worth spending hard-earned cash to come out talking about another referee who can't even get the basics rights and thinks people are coming to watch him pace out ten yards to a non-existent wall? He did this not once but three times. Don't even get me started on the two minutes stoppage time - yet another clown in ref's clothing!

Did he actually unhook him or was he threatening him with a second yellow?

[RoversAlias]

The referee was a complete jobsworth tosspot. Embarrassing and it is making me angry now how bad the referees are. We spend our time and money to come and watch professional football and it is getting constantly spoiled by inept, unfit jobsworths week after week.

Unbooked him cause Anderson was injured
Their player didn’t have a clue he was injured

[PDX_Rover]

He was poor. How there wasn’t a min of 4 minutes at the end was funny if it wasn’t so f**king tragic.

Whatever though, we should never have been in the position we were in in that game.

I don’t know what GM was trying to do.the second half team has to start the next game, assuming Copps is injured.

Regarding the two minutes added on, yes this is rare.  Looking at second half stoppages, there was only one sub for Accrington and none for us, as they were made at half time.  That means 30 seconds is added on.  There is never time allowed for a goal being scored unless there is excessive time wasted before the restart, which there wasn’t as it was Rovers who scored.  The trainer never came onto the pitch at all in the second half, so the ref did actually allow some added time for Accrington time wasting.  He did actually play three minutes in the end. 
It wasn’t the refs fault that we lost the game, we are all just a bit frustrated that we didn’t turn up in the first half.

Are you having a laugh?
They time wasted everytime the ball went out of play, he spoke to their captain about it, he spoke to two players for kicking the ball away, he booked a player for time wasting,

You are right, 1 sub. Still should have been 5 minimum added. Pretty sure it’s 30 seconds per goal no matter what.

I posted this 3 days ago - to me NO SURPRISE whatsoever tonight



WARNING +++ WARNING +++ WARNING +++

Woolmer has gone and along comes HIM

Most of you will remember this game as well I bet

[StocksArmy]

Weve just conjured up that shower of sh!t of a performance and this is a big deal? Wowzers!

[BillyStubbsTears]

He indicated 2 minutes before we scored. There should have been time added on for the delay in restarting. Then the trainer was on for a minute when Sadlier was booked. And he played 3 minutes.

And that's ignoring the constant time wasting throughout the match.

Shocking display by him and that arsing about with pacing out the 10 yards for a non-existent wall was the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen from a ref.

Doesn't change the fact that we were appalling, mind.

We were pushing at the end tbf and might have nicked something if an appropriate amount of time had been added.

I’ve maintained the same stance on officials all season, that we tend to forget the lucky breaks we get and things that go for us, and that they generally even out the times when we get the shitty end of the stick. But tonight the balance has tipped for me... where do the EFL keep getting these f**king clowns from, and why are they being foisted on us week after week?!

[elmsallrover]

Could have put 3 days of extra time on the board and we still wouldn't score

[dickos1]

We hit woodwork twice
We were w**k tonight but if they’d played 6/7 mins added on I would’ve thought we would’ve had a couple more chances

[bobbymax]

Disagree, they were out on their feet in the last 10 minutes - hence the even more pronounced time-waiting.

[roversdude]

Took them an age to restart after we scored

[ck-rtid]

There is no set time added on for subs or goals

[Pliskin]

The way Accrington were time wasting I'd have been disappointed with only 4 minutes added.

But to add only 2 minutes, it felt like the officials were just trolling us at that point. Honestly unbelievable. Oblivious t**ts!

[The Red Baron]

This is the same referee we had at Oxford last season. At the end of 90 minutes he added on five, which seemed excessive because there had been no major stoppages and any time wasting wasn't on the scale of tonight. Oxford scored the winner in the 7th minute of added time.
