Can we keep assuming incompetence or is this something more sinister? I hope it is incompetence but even away from Wanderers, why does Zullo not get his second yellow card with that challenge? With the send off look who is there yelling at the ref about a lash out that didn't exist, its Brosque, ref falls for it and sends him off. For teams like us and Jets when you aren't scoring enough to take the poor decisions out of the equation they become massive game changers is the issue. KGJ that is a different story, he has a bias against some Clubs and we are one of them, there is simply no other explanation for his inconsistency on like calls.

I just wrote a comment in response to Bozza's article (which I didn't copy anywhere ) and posted it but it didn't appear. Would they take a while to check it...or should it have appeared instantly? Anyone?? Link to comment

Was just checking to see if much reaction had been generated over Bozza's article, and found that the "Like" function related to the comments has been disabled. 7 good comments, probably by some of our forumites, I suspect (I recognise at least one name I know for sure) - and I'd would have "Liked" them all if I'd been able to - fwiw.

What he said is stating what actually happened - we all saw that take place. Wilson needs to tell us whether he agrees with what happened and why. Every man and his dog saw that Davidson did commit an offside offence and yet the referees and var ignored the clear and obvious and decided the opposite. Biased bastards. I’d go one step further, he needs to say if the decision is correct or wrong, then to say how it should have been interpreted. Decisions aren’t explained, rather they are described. We all know what happened and the end result. Waste of his time & a waste of our time too. The referees aren’t held to Account, you can make mistakes week in week out & there are no consequences. How are we supposed attract new fans to take this league seriously when this is what they serve up. wendybr, Wanderboy, SomeGuy1977 and 1 other 4 Link to comment
Prydzopolis Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Funnily enough, Chris Beath was in action last night in the Iran vs Oman game as an AAR. A penalty was given, it was contentious to say the least On the replays it showed referee was in a bad position (bit harsh but couldn’t see properly through a sea of bodies). I’m almost certain that the call was made by Beath as AAR. Link to comment

But the mexican does! And he was poor again. Thailand were awarded a penalty and there should have been a red for dogso but gave a yellow instead. Then he awarded a later penalty against Thailand which was 100% a fair, clean tackle. Edit - I've mixed things up a bit there I think but can't check as I've deleted everything Link to comment

Have to give the CONCACAF exchange ref a go, especially if he as bad as our guys. Link to comment
