... with such inept officiating? Football fans are being seriously short-changed by these incompetent, arrogant referees. The FA appeals system needs a signed confession & a smoking gun before they even pause before turning the appeal down.
Makes you wonder why we all bother. |  |

Totally agree. The standard of refs at the moment is shocking and they are supposed to be professional? |  | | |

We'll be debating crap decisions this time next Year and the year after that and beyond.
All the video evidence is right there at pitch side.
It cost the average everyday football fan a small fortune supporting his team and It can cost his club millions of pounds with dreadful decisions.
Don't tell anyone at the FA though, they're all to busy snorting bastard cocaine and laughing at us poor bastards, one day they might actually win us a world cup bid. |  |

I can accept referees making mistakes. They are not infallible.
What I find difficult to accept is that none of them nor their employers. the FA, are prepared to acknowledge that fact.
For whatever reasons, the FA upheld Derry's red card, did nothing about Ashley Young's blatant cheating (giving him free rein to repeat it today), nor Balotelli's assault on Song. And they demand RESPECT!!!!
You don't get respect when you condone cheating and thuggery. But it's OK for the same organisation to appeal Rooney's kick at a Montenegran defender. |  |

You can name the good refs on the hand of a Naaaarch supporter.
1. Howard Webb
2. Mark Clattenberg
3. Chris Foy
4. Michael Jones
5. Phil Dowd
6. Andre Marriner
7. Jon Moss
The rest are so dire that they need replacing. If rugby and cricket use technology, why can't football?
Put the Spanish Inquisition on that cheating bastard Ashley Young and there's a chance a few things might get sorted.

Mistakes are inevitable. But Mr Atkinson is beyond mistakes. He denied our goal because he couldn't see the ball cross the line. Wonder what he saw today then. | |

Actually, I do not have seven fingers. I have just the usual five, plus my thumb.
Anyway, I would have to take Andre Marriner off your list of competent officials, as he is truly inept. |  | | |

Now being totally crap at biology at school I thought that we had 4 fingers and a thumb, but then again you being a Norwich supporter could explain the extra finger!! |  | | |

Atkinson was the ref at bolton, but the decision was made by stevie wonder with the flag. Perhaps that influenced yesterdays decision. At least he admitted he got it wrong. No compensatiom for spurs but It's a step in the right direction. | |

I've even had opposition fans at work sympathising about poor refereeing recently towards us.
Going down is fine, been there before but to go down because of inept decisions leaves a very bitter taste, like when you put your roll-up out in your black coffee and not notice until you take a mouthful. 
Apart from shite performances obviously but if that West Brom goal had been allowed... |  |

While the Ashley Young five was disgraceful, i actually think the Atkinson 'ghost goal' for Chelsea was worse because he simply guessed!
Being conned by a cheating player is one thing, but surely giving a decision based on guesswork rather than what you've actually seen is absolutely unacceptable?
Anyway i doubt Ashley Young will be receiving any more soft penalties this season after the last week's coverage. | | | |

Clattenberg ?!

Clattenburg did Norwich away and Wolves at home, and I thought he was faultless in both games. Just gets on it without guessing decisions | |

We'll see tonight, Canary, your favourite ref is doing Arse vs Wigging.
Hopefully five reds and a couple of dodgy pens. | |

Atkinsons been involved in 3 massive contreverseys iin little over a month, it's time he stepped down (or was stepped down).
Assume he'll be booked for the Cup Final now (UNless he's done it) |  | | |
