MATCHWATCH : Lincoln City (a)

[AthleticoSpizz]

Oh goody

[Hound]

Of course ref gives that one - disgraceful

[AthleticoSpizz]

Oh goody

[Pepe the Horseman]

oxf*rd off ref. No different to the penalty.

[Ascotexgunner]

F*cking refs.

[skipper]

So we're denied a penalty and now we've had a player sent off.

What a sh*t show.

[Sutekh]

He’s no Mark Holzman though is he?

[Bristol Paul]

second half of the season is gonna be bad.....

[Sutekh]

So current big lump centre forward gets nothing out of this ref yet the club’s former big lump centre forward does.

[ILoveMoonPig]

Have to admit, I did not think we would crumble this quickly after Selles left.

[skipper]

I've always thought that in the event of being reduced to 10 men a team should revert to 441. Your attack is slightly less potent, but the rest of your set up is still solid.

[Who Moved The Goalposts?]

So current big lump centre forward gets nothing out of this ref yet the club’s former big lump centre forward does.

It's almost incredible just how bad the referees are in the UK. Two very similar incidents treated in two very different ways. Who is assessing these idiots?

[Hound]

Had many performances just like this under Selles tbf

We were actually doing ok in the game again til the refs screw up

Not that I have high hopes for this game or the season to come

It’s actually as angry as I’ve been about a ref’s performance for a very long time. Utterly unacceptable

[Ascotexgunner]

Pressings gone, defence looks lost, lots of tippy tappy on the wings.....I'm not sure what Hunts tactics are.

[Snowflake Royal]

Hackett is destroying us.

[bloody Volvo driver]

Smith simply has to stop his theatrics, refs talk and he has to be top or near the top of “league one shithouses refwatch”.

[Pepe the Horseman]

Fine margins. Last week we miss an open goal and then go behind a couple of mins later. This week denied a clear pen, then down to 10 a couple of mins later.

[WestYorksRoyal]

Best team winning like the best team won last week. But it would be nice just to lose to the opposition and not the ref as well.

[Snowflake Royal]

The difference between the two incidents is the Lincoln player stays on his feet and goes in to Smith's upper body with a shoulder, giving the ref the chance to decide it's shoulder to shoulder (it wasn't) and a dive (it wasn't). Made all the easier because Smith goesover easy all the time and pisses refs off.

Compared to Holzman who goes to ground from behind taking out the Lincoln player's legs. Nailed on red card.

One gives the ref the option to bottle it the other doesn't
