I thought it was a pen for them,

BUT

My grandson informed me  in todays game you should allow the keeper to play the ball,

So the ref was right  in given us a free kick

The game has changed since I played.

I though it was stupid of McKeown but ultimately the decision that was made was correct.

The referee should have blown for a free kick to Town for obstruction - but he didn't - causing himself a problem, when McKeown took the law in to his own hands - but the ref then picked the ball up and slyly (in the end) gave us a free kick (long after he should have given it in the first place) and getting himself off the hook with his assessor.

I'm sure this rule was brought in many years ago.

I remember being threatened with a booking when I did just what their player did today and that was donkeys years ago.

Most blatant penny ever was when one of our players was pushed over (two hands in the back near the penalty spot (couldn't see who but could see the blue arms push him.)


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

As mentions nee no free kick had been given despite the 1st offence. Idiocy of Macca to push him over.

Quoted from Doctor Sanchez
I thought the ref was the best I can remember seeing since we've been in the conference.  


Certainly sounded like it given JT's compliments during the broadcast on radio - and JT was the most upbeat I have heard him in a while. Alan connel wasn't bad as a knowledgeable co commentator either.

Reason was being a twit, no doubt about it. Macca probably shouldn't have pushed him but I can understand why he did, as he did attempt to move round him to take the shot and Reason would not back off. And why did Reason fall over from a shove if only to look to make it worse than it was? Prat.

Credit to the ref last night. One of the best I've seen in years refereeing a town game. Weighed up every challenge fairly, no drama at all and made plenty of reasonable decisions. Eastleigh fans didn't seem to agree as I did hear a 'The referee's a w*nker' chant on one occasion. No complaints from me though.

The law which states a player cannot impede a goalkeeper releasing the ball was in fashion when I was refereeing. I stopped reffing about 7 years ago... the referee  ( I assume ) didnt blow because he thought the player was only trying to wind Macca up and would eventually let him release the ball.  But the player was a knob-end and didnt . A lesser referee would have given a penalty , but fortunately this one had his mind and eye on what went on and gave the correct decision , very good refereeing. It is dangerous play because the keeper could  a) hurt himself with his kick follow thru on the player , or b) damage the player thru no fault of his own...  good refereeing and nice to see for a change.

Note to Macca :  be careful next time... we might have Joyce.....
