    Tried to stay level and rarely berate officials, tough job and one I wouldn’t want, but this referee is incompetent, illogical and intellectually challenged. He should not be allowed to continue in a job in which his shortcomings are not only cruelly exposed but also impact thousands of people.

    Macnamara probably just saying you gave me a yellow for a little tug on someone’s shoulder and hes just been taken out. What a truly awful day of football for us, terrible performance make no bones about it but one of the worst refs I’ve seen on a pitch.

    How the fuck is that a 2nd yellow. What's going on 
    What did he say to the ref?
    D-Mac is a Spanner so it was probably along the lines of:

    "I say, Bobby old chap, I don't mean to be a bother to you but are you sure that shouldn't be a yellow card for their player?"

    Couldn’t get back to sleep. Checked the app, and now we’re a man down too. Am I actually asleep and having a nightmare?

    And the funny thing is - they look average! Genuinely sounds crazy to say but they must be wondering how they are 4 up

    On the bright side this is probably the worst match we will have this season. Things can only get better 
    Don't count on it - we clearly have a very soft underbelly 
    That's the spirit...🤦‍♂️

    I look forward to someone coming onto the post match thread to say that every decision this ref's made has been correct.

    We know that isn't the case but they haven't all been wrong either.
    Danny shouldn't have shown the imaginary card when on a booking. 

    As I said anything that could go wrong is going wrong but some of it is self inflicted.

    Head loss / brain dead whatever but come on the refs having a stinker,
    going over and waving an imaginary card just after getting a yellow is ridiculous.

    Who said after the penalty the ref will even it up? Seems he's doubled down instead

    Leaburn bundled down off the ball and then penalised for getting up

    Nathan Jones should excuse himself from post match interviews and send out someone  else. 

    He should also just shake the refs hand and say nothing at all. 

    That will send the same message as any rant and avoid any repurcussions.

    Just a reminder we lost 5-1 to Southampton with Docherty in the team.

    “Just like Chris Solly”.  Maybe let’s wait a few games to judge .

    These Stoke players know the ref is on one and they're trying their best to get us some second yellows here

    Take Miles off before he gets another card.

    We are going to struggle to keep 9 players on the field at this rate.

    Can you bet on managers get sent off?

    Remortgaging the house and putting it all on a NJ red card at FT.

    Can we do the same for Ouma?

    Very soft penalty,  but ok IF the referee is consistent. 
    And that's been the issue today. Two ridiculous non yellows for Stoke players, including the one which led to the Danny red.

    Ahh yeah well spotted dog shagger! Yellow for Coventry 
  • Of course the first DM yellow doesn't happen if the corner is given. Unreal.

    Are we just trying to pick up yellows now? What was that from Conor

    Yeah, let's wait to see if MacNamara refuses to play for the club at any stage, he's nothing like Chris Solly until he does that
