WITTON v Gateshead (League Game)

the ref was just as bad as he was then wasn’t he.

Be fair lads, it was a penalty when Pritch roughed up their striker in the first half. Refs are human(just) and they all do it because they love the game. They make mistakes, but without them we have no game. Believe me, Rugby Union refs are as bad, if not worse, at giving wrong decisions, but in Rugby (both codes) the players just get on with it so it is not as noticaeable.

Rubbish - Have you watched the highlights on NLP TV the ref was correct - it was not a penalty.

So he has improved since his last visit to WP. Rather than sending off our players, he decided just not to give them the corners they should have won ::slight_smile: ::slight_smile: ::slight_smile:

If you make contact with a player in the box and don’t make contact with the ball first, it is a penalty, end of comment. Mind you, I do agree he got an awful lot wrong!!
