Game level at 1-1 until an amazing decision from the referee to award a goal from his position on the centre circle. This despite running 40 yards to the assistant who told him that he couldn't see whether the ball crossed the line.
Absolutely gutted for the lads.
Fair play to Town, who didn't have any claimant for the winning 'goal' and were extremely embarrassed by the result. We'll probably get fined for only having two scorers names on the teamsheet!"
I cannot understand why this official keeps getting games- he's becoming an embarassment to the league
Brian - If people continue to mark him at the level I know we did for the Stocksfield game away at the start of the season then surely he must get to a point where he does not meet the criteria (minimum score) to officiate.
Just found this tripe about a match official I suppose the old adage about people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. As an avid Northern Alliance fan who has watched many a Carlisle City match and heard the abuse they have hurled at many many match officials it is no wonder they are fined so much! I'm surprised they have enough money to pay all the fines...and I'm suprised that referees and linesman get paid so little to put up with their stupid non league egos
Sad that you are still checking too we both must have sad lives then amaziing. I suppose you have lots of time to read with your players as you are suspended so many times for your poor verbal discipline.
It's always easy to put forward views under an anonymous heading and yet curious how they seem to know so much- maybe we should have a guess the poster quiz
