v Coventry City (a) - 4/10/2023

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

Need a replay but was surprised it was given at the time!

[Blow-in]

We would be crying like bitches if we conceded like that. But still!!!!!

[BankEnd Rover]

Just our luck. Coventry win this now.

[Sweaty Gussets]

Robbed again. If we didn't have bad luck we wouldn't have any. 

[Displaced Rover]

In real time I was surprised it was given but once it was how has he allowed the AR (who is about 4 times the distance away) to overrule him?!!

[CD_93]

We'll have scored and still lose 0-2.

[Mark Atkins' Bald Patch]

Anyone know what happened to Wharton? 

[Guest]

We've been cheated there. No flag from the assistant, and the ref gives the goal. After being goaded by the Coventry players he goes to the assistant who somehow  now has a different view. CHEATS!!

 

[BigBar]

You couldn't fucking make that up. Officials bottled it. Fuck off.

[booth]

It wasn't in his hands when Moran kicked it. Once again on the wrong end of a decision.

[Dan]

Never a foul. Where the fuck was the referees assistant when their goalie hand balled it last season. Twats.

Looked a groin strain/pull.

I was surprised in real time too, but replay shows ball was there to be won.

Besides, since when do refs do their own 1 min debate to come to a decision. 

Certainly never happens when we're getting robbed.

Bugger... I'm for Loftus road on Saturday, first rovers match in ages and was really looking forward to seeing Wharton in action.

[Miller11]

Nothing wrong with that goal.

[BigBar]

Can't help but feel morons reaction may have put doubt in the refs mind. Looked straight at him after he put it in.

[duckson]

If hte goalkeeper has a hand on it its classed as gathered.

[DE.]

Cowardly from the officials there. Got it right initially and then caved to pressure.

Really. Even the lightest of touches with one hand.

I genuinely don't know the rule.

I  have a replay. Keeper did not have it under control 

[martonrover]

It didn’t look right, but the ref clearly saw nothing wrong and, presumably, the asst referee didn’t flag.

The ref bottled it.

[Mercer]

Think right decision to rule 'goal' out.

As soon as happened I thought 'foul'.

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

The refs in this league are all absolute cunts, to a man. 

[Bethnal]

I’d be livid if it was given against us, is the thing.

We need to permanently make space for Hill, he’s adding a lot of security.

Arbitro will know, but I thought both hands have to be on the ball and have it under control
