Baffled by the Ref. 17:18 - Feb 3 with 3758 views | Hooping_Mad | Booked Sinclair for being kicked, gave a pull back on him against more than once. Seemed to give almost everything against him. Even the home commentary couldn't believe where 10mins time came from at the end. Utterly baffling display. We still won though, so there is that. [Post edited 3 Feb 17:21]

Baffled by the Ref. on 17:42 - Feb 3 with 3421 views | QPsyR | The ridiculous Sinclair decision totally changed the course of the game, I genuinely think we would have won 3 or 4 nil if that hadn't happened. I didn't think he was that great in the first half either. Didn't give two clear fouls against Willock (one when geezer jumped on his back - Sinton commented) and even worse didn't give a clear advantage when Willock still got past his man after literally having his shirt ripped off him. Anyway we still won :-) | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Baffled by the Ref. on 18:07 - Feb 3 with 3261 views | NZR | Yeah the Armstrong foul didn't make any sense. The attacker had the ball and was brought down. I thought the ref was going to get a card out as Armstrong was through - but instead he gave the foul the other way and we ended up conceding as a result. | ![](/images/avatars/20470.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Baffled by the Ref. on 20:19 - Feb 3 with 2784 views | BrianMcCarthy | He gave a free on the half-way line. It might have looked to all of us as if it was against the wrong player. But we have no idea if he saw something that we didn't e.g. a shirt pull by Armstrong a second or two prior. Let's face it, our man is no angel. It's why we like him. It's possible that he fouled first. Anyway, and all that, the free was on the half-way line. We had many, many chances to stop that ball before it finally found its way through and over our entire team and into a small net in a far and distant land. | ![](/images/avatars/1570.gif) |

Baffled by the Ref. on 20:23 - Feb 3 with 2756 views | mart_Goblin | Even the guys doing the Blackburn commentary couldn’t believe he gave that decision against Armstrong . They were also guessing the injury time at 4 or 5 mins so couldn’t believe he added 10 mins .

They certainly were. I thought up till the Blackburn goal he had been a good referee, but I didn't understand some of the decisions after that! The Armstrong caution looked correct to me, but Gallagher should have also been cautioned a few minutes later for the same type of challenge. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Thought that would have been harsh . The Blackburn player didn’t go down like a sack of spuds and Try’d to regain the ball which helped Colbacks cause. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Baffled by the Ref. on 20:54 - Feb 3 with 2633 views | derbyhoop | He wasnt bad until the last 30. Armstrong was late on the defender he fouled. Bit harsh but understandable. Late on there seemed to be a lot of fouls on Rangers players that were ignored. | ![](/images/avatars/1276.gif) |

He is because he lets the game flow and lets a lot go. However, on Saturday he was a bit too lenient at times and then he messed up the Willock advantage. The Armstrong caution, I thought was correct but the half way line incident seemed wrong but, as Brian mentioned, he could have seen something we couldn't. We have a fairly atrocious record with him results wise but he has generally reffed us well. I am happy that the trend was reversed on this occasion.😁 | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Baffled by the Ref. on 10:46 - Feb 5 with 1688 views | Watford_Ranger | Think it’s fair to say Sinclair doesn’t get the rub of the green more often than not with refs though part of his improvement is being making better choices about when to use his physical advantage. That foul that led to their goal was nonsense though. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Great post its happening time after time Armstrong is a bull and he never gets the rub of the green on 50/50 battlesplus he does go in late more often when he is pissed off . Watch that play again it looked like he pulled the defender back to get posession and the ref was way behind so just guessed. As usual the linesman were pretty poor but like someone posted if they were any good they would be in the PL I am still angry that the same dildo lino who flagged Austin offside in the cup tie did not see the Hudersfield player clearly off before they went ahead . No consistancy and we appear to suffer more than most. | ![](/images/avatars/24928.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
