It could have been worse but it could have been a lot better. Might be a TV game though. As the draw is fairly crap bar 2 ties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longlostfan Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 For nearly all the 700 odd teams that enter the FA Cup each year it ends in disappointment. You either get spanked, get unlucky, or put on a show and still lose. If it goes well you have a game or day out or two to remember. Most when they calm down will reflect on two tricky aways at new grounds with a injury time winner, a massive day out beating a premier league side and a competitive defeat to a side near the top of the division above. All things considered that's not bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All things considered that's not bad. It's not bad, but decisions like the one that ultimately cost us never seem to go our way. The odd game here in the Cup also is the least we deserve after what seems like an eternity of shit seasons in the league. I thought these things were supposed to even themselves out??

Longlostfan Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 It doesn't feel like they even out though does it. The was a piece in the times around the 3rd round weekend that rated the sides left by 'how lucky they were' They included if you played higher division opposition and if you were drawn home or away- I think it was over 60 years IIRC we were about the third least lucky. Sometimes it feels that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the side of the pitch of the linesman who had an uninterrupted view of it and did nothing. As Dave says, the player should be banned, so should the incompetent officials.

I'm convinced Refs just tells the lino's to "just give throw-ins and off-sides", hence they don't get involved in much else, which in view of Saturday's debacle is probably about right !

It's pretty rare that they actually give throw ins now. They just wait for the ref to indicate and then put the flag in the same direction.

Kusunga_Is_God Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 Referees, every single one of them, are sub-human scum. Just make it fully automated. Every referee is just a chancer who was never good enough to be a player and evidently has issues. Every single one of them want to make games about them. They are scum and a disgrace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
