  1. And Edozie is holding the Norwich player's shirt. Half a dozen of each.
  2. Because my judgement wasn't wrong.
  3. Why because he was offside and ran towards the ball???
  4. Mistakes? Six points is a lot. And all down to just the one player. Wow. Any in particular tgat you'd care to share? Conveniently ignored the points that he gained for us, of course. Personally I think that five at the back was significantly more significant.
  5. I agree. The high kick was surprising. Difficult to see how close it was from my position and angle but but usually you would try to nip that sort of behaviour in the bud. I think he tried too hard to keep the game flowing but sometimes a few quick free kicks are needed to let the players know where the tolerance level is set. A referee needs to sense early on when the games should be allowed to flow and when a touch on the brakes is needed. This judgement comes with experience but as the saying goes, "Good judgment comes from experience; experience comes from bad judgment"
  6. Indeed they are wonderful, but the National Trust is ridiculously expensive.
  7. "is in play when it is kicked and clearly moves"
  8. Only a couple of incidents there that might have been punished but nothing egregious. There are also a couple of cases of our players flinging themselves to the ground in the hope of winning a foul. Manning is a serial offender and would be a much better player if he concentrated on staying on his feet.
  9. You need to consider what happened between them immediately before that incident. Where two players are holding their own tug of war contest it's a difficult choice for a referee. Usually six of one and half a dozen of the other.
  10. Whether you consider them mistakes or not depends on which side you support.
  11. That wasn't a penalty. Edozie threw himself to the ground.
  12. Not as good as we needed but not actually shite. However, why keep harping on about him? I see that McCarthy doesn't get a mention. Nor should he.
  13. As things stand we're eight points behind Millwall and Ipswich (who have a game in hand) and ten points behind Middlesbrough and we have eight games to play. Can't see it myself but this is one hell of a run that we're having.
  14. Peretz is just what we needed. He has a habit of being in the right place to save snapshots that are fired at him. Has a tendency to spill the occasional shot though but usually makes amends for it. One brainfart last night where he passed to a team member in our own crowded penalty area. Luckily the opposition were even more surprised that we were. Worth holding on to. I won't comment on Baz at the moment for the reasons that I gave in an earlier post. He's injured, he's not even at the club and I doubt that we shall see him here again. Why bring up his name?
  15. 'Goal' was a comfortable offside. Edozie threw himself to the ground.
