3pointsPepe the Horseman Cox came off so we could tighten up the midfield and see out the game.
Apart from the fact it didn't really work imo
Other than the fact that we saw the game out you mean?

P!ssed Off Awful penalty.
Not quite as awful as the linesman's offside flag for McCleary.
He was so blatantly onside! I think there needs to be some sort of retrospective punishment for linesmen wrongly ruling out goals for offside. It might encourage them to actually follow the rules for a change and give the attacker the benefit of the doubt.

He didnt rule out a goal for offside. The ref saw the flag, and blew the whistle before McCleary took his shot. Van Persie got a second yellow and a sending off at Barcelona for Arsenal for doing exactly that.
The assistant referees (as they are actually called) don't follow the rules, they follow the laws of football. In every game they will probably make a 100 decisions. They get paid about £300. What punishment would you give for one wrong decision? Nathaniel Chalobah gets paid £30,000 a week and he made a few wrong decisions today, so I assume you'll include that in your thinking about the punishment to the bloke getting 1% of that.
How would you judge that the "mistake" was worthy of whatever punishment it was decided upon - for example, how many slow motion replays would be required? And would that need to be done for every single decision? Would they get a bonus for the decision that was right, even though some pillock was screaming that they got it wrong? Would it only apply to decisions that were absolutely right or wrong, rather than those where different people have different opinions? Given that every ref and assistant ref will make a mistake in a game - either as a matter of fact, or according to some pillock's opinion - do you think that punishing them, lets say by dropping them altogether or removing the match fee for one mistake will a) lead to no referees at all and therefore no football or b) lead to no referees at all and therefore no football.

bcubed Not sure punishing is the answer. How about
improve the standards, pay them more and use technology. It would take 5 seconds to check an offside

Just seen it on the Football League Show. McCleary was onside, but Cox was at least two yards offside and I think the lino flagged for him

RoyalBluemarlowuk I didn't see much improvement in Robson-Kanu today and his penalty attempt was dreadful. He scored - luckily in my opinion - with a similar penalty against Norwich earlier in the season. Rolling the ball gently along the ground into the centre of the goal only works if the goalie dives one way or the other!! Today Ruddy stood his ground!
Which really shouldn't have made much difference given he wasn't playing in goal!

The linesman's flag and the referees whistle did not affect the play. The same event would have transpired had the linesman correctly kept his flag down. Ergo: the goal was ruled out for offside.
Chalobah's pay/ job performance, is completely irrelevant to that of a match official.
And are we really supposed to feel sorry for match officials only getting paid "about £300" for 90 minutes work? That sounds like quite a good rate to me.
And what do we require of them for this £300? An understanding of the rules of the game, a bit of fitness, and that they not spoil the match for the observers.
The benefit of the doubt is supposed to be given to the attacker. The linesman (I couldn't give a oxf*rd what his official name is you bellend!) can only stick his flag up if he is certain a player is offside. If he's looking down the line and is certain that a player is offside when he's a yard onside, then he's in the wrong profession. Likewise if he's too fat to keep up with the play, like our referee today, then he's in the wrong profession.
As for your 2nd paragraph: I didn't bother reading it. No doubt it was yet more drivel.

Y21 Was it just their strip, or were Wednesdays players some of the heaviest to visit the Madejski? Obviously their no.9 was a proper old school unit, but a few of the others looked as though they had been enjoying the pies.
