Exeter boss not happy with referee, sore looser or has he got a point? (No he did not get a point, we got 3)

Not the first time they have complained about Devon based referee Bret Huxtable.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

Cant say he had a bad game tbh but missed a blatant penalty for them which the linesman should have seen from where he was

Sounds almost Cowleyesque in his pathetic attempt to influence whoever referees their game tomorrow?
Also trying to deflect attention from his own inadequacy. They never stand up and say credit to them, we were well beaten, it's always someone else's fault

If he took the ref to court in Scotland he could possibly get the game replayed however long it took them to win - seems fair to me

I suppose he's only doing his job. Taking the emphasis and flak away from his team and onto the ref. He was complimentary about us before we played.

It's easier to be magnanimous when you're 7th...

Did the fourth official not spot it either? Well I am surprised....

Am I missing something?

QUOTE:
The City chief was unhappy with the nature of Grimsby's first goal when City were on the counter-attack and Archie Collins was fouled, with referee Brett Huxtable waving play on.

To be fair to Huxtable, it was a good call, but as City failed to make the most of the advantage played, Grimsby won the ball back, countered themselves and won a corner kick.

Huxtable then showed the yellow card to Liam Gibson, for his foul on Collins, who needed treatment. But he told Collins to leave the field prior to Grimsby taking the corner, from which Ethan Robson scored to put the Mariners in front.
UNQUOTE:

What is wrong with that?

We were 3-0 up at the time, so even if it had been given, I doubt it would have changed the result of the game really.

Having said that, he must have been the porkiest ref I've seen for a long time.
