[The Red Baron]

bump

[Filo]

He can have one point for awarding the penalty, but he failed to give at least two red cards in the second half

[Monkcaster_Rover]

Thought he had a good game. Didn’t see those 2 challenges where we were baying for blood. We’ve had a lot worse.

[roversdude]

Probably a 1.5 so I’ve rounded it up to a 2. Much better this time round….but, there were a couple of shocking challenges from Orient players that were worthy of a red, he seemed to have been having a real go at Zander when he went down too.
Quite a calm performance took his time with a few decisions including the pelanty

Got to agree ,  the stamp on Sterry and 2 others in.2nd half.

And what is it with 4th Officials and their ability to see Tom Anderson  v Chesterfield in South Pen area supposedly elbowing a Chessie player

Thats 60 yards ish with a crowd of players in his way yet he must have called the Ref because he stopped play with Chessie attacking and sent Anderson off

Yet today the 4th Official had a clear view of 4 incidents / dangerous tackles but only alerted Ref of the tamest one a shove on.Gotts who fell almost into the Technical Area

Sterry and one other were bad fouls and not 10 yards from him. Inconsistency AGAIN


NIL again Woods.

[TheFunk]

He also missed the punch to Frankie's stomach just before half time right in front of the 4th official who refused to get involved.
