StefanAVFC Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Absolute joke. Everything about it. The performance, the officiating, the commentary, their fans. Absurd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 I haven't seen the Mings first booking (sounds wrong?) but, otherwise, the ref is just being picky, surely? Penalty against us was correct. Second booking for Mings is correct. Booking Smith for leaving his technical area is probably correct. Has he really been that bad? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talldarkandransome Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 So Smith was booked for leaving his technical area I assume. Never seen any coach do that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacbuddies Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Pathetic effort. Our play off rivals must be pissing themselves with us losing to the mighty Rotherham! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Well that was a bit shit. Players weren’t at it from the start and we brought that on ourselves for poor play. Didnt see mings first booking but can see why he got the second. That being said this referee has been nothing short of disgraceful and seems to be revelling in winding the players up.

Hourihane scores goals, what's your point ? My point is that Hourihane doesn't impact on games. Grealish does. Without Hourihane in the starting eleven, we've looked a lot better. Today, he's come back in and we've looked poor. Not sure what you're not getting? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was literally nothing in the Mings one, and at least a couple of their players ought to be in the book. And they don't seem to know about the offside rule. Other than that, they've been grand.

Think Smith's booking was a bit harsh but other than that.... he's got most of it right. We have no one to blame but ourselves. If Mings tripped their player out of frustration for the first booking then that probably should have been a yellow too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 If a less popular player got two yellows for the same thing Mings has he'd be getting slaughtered. He's had an absolute shocker there. He's stuck his arm towards the ball and it's connected - there's really nothing to complain about there in terms of the ref's decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see if Smith can come up with a plan b. Still not convinced (I'll take all the flak you want).

M_Afro Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 It was clear from the start that this was going to happen. They just don’t look like they want to be there. We only have ourselves to blame. To be honest, Rotherham are do poor that we could still get something here if we actually make an effort. The performance of Tammy was nothing short of disgraceful. I would bring Big Davis on at HT and go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjaacckk91 Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Reminding me of the QPR game, the ref is killing us. Admittedly Rotherham aren't being as twatish as QPR were, but they are getting away with bad and persistent could because the ref isn't punishing them, yet we've had cards for nothing (including the manager) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante_Lockhart Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Rotherham are playing physical football and we don’t seem to be able to retaliate. Shocking officiating. Mings first yellow was soft as hell considering he got kicked first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
