dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted May 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2023 Another Hillsborough horror show for the officials...... A pen for a foul made outside the box An equaliser in the 8th minute of 6 added on An stone wall red card for denying a goal scoring opportunity not even given as a foul  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody would think you didn't want Wednesday to win I think we all accept that refereeing is inconsistent, especially at lower levels, but that shouldn't take away from a fabulous tie.

No more than other teams do but obviously 2 - 3 minutes extra was right for the time wasting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS50 Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 How was the football match allowed to go on for so long? I thought there was a sports curfew in the area. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You comment proves my point. You say it started after 2 minutes. In which case standard added time should've been 15 minutes and not 6...... Boro were atrocious and in many ways got what they deserved. Timid and negative when a bold attacking approach may well have seen them triumph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve55 Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 Don't know why they don't adopt the Rugby Union system of time keeping. When there is a stoppage in play for an injury or substitution, just stop the clock (fourth official could do it and it could be on show to everyone in the stadium), that's if the fourth official isn't being abused by one of the managers or his staff! Everyone could then see when 45 and 90 minutes are up and the ref blows the whistle, unless a penalty is being taken! That's it. It would stop all the bo11ocks of players going down feigning injuries, cramp etc., and if a team are well infront and are obviously time wasting, like goal keepers catching the ball and diving to floor where they then lay for anything up to 30 seconds at a time, they get a card - they'd only do it once or they're off! The timing of football games at present is a joke, what with substitutions, goal celebrations and supposed injuries it's anyones guess as to how they calculate added time! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The timing of football games at present is a joke, what with substitutions, goal celebrations and supposed injuries it's anyones guess as to how they calculate added time! When I played Saturday football it was 30 seconds added in per goal - thatâs 3 minutes for staters for the 6 goals. I think it was also the same for subs being introduced. most, as usual.  are forgetting the board indicated a MINIMUM amount of time to added on - for those slow at the back thatâs a a MINIMUM amount of time! If it says 6 minutes thatâs the very minimum the ref needs to add on the rest is entirely at his discretion as he and he alone controls that game.  for the record footballing wise I couldnât give a monkies about either side - but at least understand the rules properly and all footballers know this stuff as itâs drummed into them - fans is another matter of course Edited May 20, 2023 by GeneralMelchett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
