Duckworth watch

[BIG_BERTHA_3]

At Carlisle tonight

 

[poolfc]

Hopefully send off the whole Barnsley team and then wave play on

 

[tigger]

He should be sent back to the nobber Sunday league

 

[Costero Poderoso]

difficult to believe that after the performance on saturday he's actually been given another game so soon.

 

[BIG_BERTHA_3]

I thought he would have been demoted.

 

[Wilburrabbit]

Surely the important thing is that given he is from Preston and showed his bias he should be excluded from ever being allocated a Blackpool match again in the future.

Club needs to refuse him ever refereeing us again.
I wouldn’t trust him to serve the half-time pies

 

[poolfc]

I don't think there was bias. Just didn't look ready or in control to me. Portsmouth had as many complaints about not being able to trust his judgement as we did. They made a half time sub to take a potential second yellow card out of it. And it became a bit of a lawless state in the second half.

Yeah I agree, he was just bad across the board, unfortunately the game changing clanger hit us.

I got exactly the same reply at lunchtime

He certainly should not be refereeing this week. That's awful.

I don't think he could be trusted to find his mouth to eat a half time pie,

 

[Wilburrabbit]

There seems to be a complete lack of understanding rivalries. If you are from Ipswich you don’t referee Norwich games or vice versa same with Portsmouth and Southampton, Newcastle and Sunderland, Blackburn and Burnley etc.

Surely it’s not impossible to impose that restriction to avoid sabotage.

Lump on 5 plus cards

Proving bias is exceptionally difficult but a really stupid appointment by the EFL

Just been on the Barnsley forum all complaining about him - dished out 3 yellows to their players last night but none to Carlisle who were not the most pleasant to play against!
