I don't like to critisise the referee and it's officals as I always look to witness how Charlton are doing but tonight was a complete joke.
I would've accepted (got annoyed with it though) if the Linesman
flagged it straight away and got it wrong but it took the Blackpool
players to protest. The Lincoln game was a similar incident as well...so do Charlton need to protest more to get their own way? Absolute madness this is turning out to be and it's a typical EFL failure!

Both red cards correct
And thought overall he didn't get many wrong. A lot better than the rest this season personally.
Ref as we go, or one of the managers half heartedly hanging around in one corner giving 70 yard decisions?
The officials should be viewed like the weather, sometimes good, sometimes bad, sometimes OK.
The referees come under the Football Association, not the English Football League.
If you want to guarantee promotion for Charlton, let me referee every game.
Agree about the red cards but if the Linesman was sure Bogle touched it why did'nt he flag it up straight away?
I mean we are due Mr Kettle at some point this season aren't we!!
I miss Darren Deadman when we won every game when he was referee! 😂
"...preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision..."
Given how nuanced the law is it's not unreasonable to let the assistant consider it for a couple of seconds before raising the flag.
The only quibble I've got with the ref, is that when he went over to the linesman he allowed players from both sides to be far too close to the discussion. He should have told them all to piss off and only then ask the linesman if he was really sure.
The commentators were told that it was disallowed because Bogle touched it. That wasn't possible to tell from the Valley Pass replay, but was clear was that Bogle didn't obstruct the goalie's line of vision, except in the sense of having been beaten by Inniss header he might not have had a clear view of it hitting the back of the net.
You would only look in wonder at the left wing and abuse anyone in the centre or right wing until they walked off.
6 games played and we have had 2 BIG decisions go against us. Both times the lino making it up as he goes along. Just not good enough & tonight it was clear he was bullied by Maxwell.
Last season after the restart we had Chuks goal wrongly ruled out & Forster-Cakey denied a certain penalty. Either one of those could have kept us up.
Think James had good game both reds cards are right got foul by Watson wrong but think his angle was different to ours on stream. Makes a lot of difference. Not wrong with Watson booking either that’s every game now.
Good point about not getting players away when talking to lino I thought same.
If there is a need for a discussion then they are not 100% sure. The ball ended up in the net so it's a goal.
Why are the officials scared of the players hearing their indecision ? Perhaps we should all hear what they are saying.
I thought straight away that Bogle who didn't understand the offside rule all night attempted to touch the ball after the great header from Innes: I have no idea if he did have the faintest of touches but it looked like he was trying to claim it. If Bogle brain was in gear he would have pointed to Innes, saying your goal. The wind up was the Lino only putting his flag up after being berated by Maxwell, 10 seconds later. No VAR so why did the Lino wait if he thought Bogle touched the ball ?
The angle from the Ass refs side would make it look like Bogle was interfering with play also.
After the nonsense with the Penalty offside which wasn't ruled out we are not getting the rub of the green.
That is why Lee Bowyer went straight down the tunnel as he would've told the lino where to put his flag.
