Ref on Saturday

[cerbera45]

1.) Made us wear our away kit because he wanted to wear black.
2.) Told Goater to hurry up and leave the field when he was subbed.
3.) Did not clap Goater off the field despite it being his last ever appearance.

On your first point, we wore our away kit because the players threw their Home shirts into the crowd at Swansea, and the club is fresh out of home shirts, so they had to play in away. Nothing to do with the Ref.

Wrong. Looked at his watch to know how much time to add on. That was it. At no point did he usher him along.

I did see him give a couple of claps. Not overly enthusiastic but there you go.

I also saw him clapping the Goat off once he realised the entire crowd - all 3 sets of supporters and both benches were applauding....

Must agree with the Flying Scotsman.

The ref could've carded Goater for taking so long. I thought it was a great gesture to allow goater to say goodbye everybody.

Shame he had something in his eye as he walked off.

What a legend.

"Luv it Luv it...... !"

I thought he was a **** for bearly giving us a decision all match, not for the three points above.

I would personally thank the ref if he had demanded we wore the white shirts...anything to avoid having to watch Bristol City in their flesh/naked away strip - has to be the worst kit since Coventry's brown away strip in the early 80's

What about Hull's "Tiger" shirt recently featured in 442? Looked truely awful...

Is it not actually a very strange shade of gold?

If it is gold then you are right - it is a very strange shade.

makes the players look like subbuteo players pre painting.
