Tend to agree with PB on this. the team didnt play well, but decisions certainly went against us. Unfortunately though these are the games we should be winning if we have aspirations to go up. To only get 2 points from Daggers, Newport and Mansfield is poor, but in hindsight we could easily have lost all three. that paints a bigger picture for me. We are stumbling at just the wrong time.

Hopefully just enough about us to stumble over the line into the lottery of the playoffs at least.

After this we got Hooper at the play off finals and he made a right feck up of that.

Today ManC experienced his dire performance with blowing for a foul when Grealish was clear thru on goal.
Bloke has not improved in 9 years it seems but gets top games.
I do hope he isn't going to go to Euro 24.

The bald buffoon consistently got things wrong throughout todays match .

He was also ref during the Spurs v Liverpool game where that VAR goal was incorrectly not given.

We really need to let go of this one.

 

[Magnum PI]

He was brilliant today …. Well for 90 minutes anyway, then back to his usual self..

 

[Swiss Tony]

Awful ref but the players behaviour is my concern, embarrassing to say the least.

Mike Dean on Sky Sports reporting on Sheff U v Liverpool. Goal, o-1, supposed odd goal which has Dean saying "it looked a foul but Simon Hooper has given it".

How the feck does he get games?

I bet Klopp isn't going mental about that one.

I bet Klopp isn't going mental about that one.

No more the fact that almost every corner United defenders held or pushed there man it would be good if VAR could do something positive and punish the offenders so they could defend properly.
