As I posted on the match thread, Tharme had his arms all around their no.9 so both were fouling.


So you are saying, that it was a foul one way or another which clearly occurred before the (not) handball and the referee therefore had a decision to make - a penalty to them or a FK to us, and as Tondeur always says "In those situations the ref always awards the free kick."

It doesn't matter who fouled whom, your version of events erases the penalty decison of the lino.

Quoted from Yossarian


You may pay money to go to a restaurant and eat a meal but it doesn't meal that if the waiter dropped a plate or the food was poor that you would stand on the table and start shouting at the person.





If a waiter makes an innocent mistake and drops a customer’s food, then you’re right, he doesn’t deserve to be shouted at. If on the other hand he deliberately throws your food on the floor because of an earlier complaint that your starter was cold, then maybe he gets what he deserves.

Bizarre analogy - you must have been drinking to come up with that nonsense

Quoted from WOZOFGRIMSBY
Rather than be negative about 2 points dropped I personally thought the performance was superb. Even more so given that they’d allowed stampeding wildebeest have a holiday on the pitch. Still baffled by the decision to award the penalty but, I don’t want that to detract from what was a good all round performance by players, management and fans.

The back 3 seemed to have more confidence. But, can’t think of one player that had a bad game and I’d imagine they feel as gutted as everyone else this morning. 5 points in a week am sure many would’ve been pleased with and the confidence starting to emerge is great to see.

Lastly, how great was it to see obikwu grab his first professional goal of his career.

Bring on the Franchise Bast@rds on Tuesday


Broadly agree with this, especially regarding Obikwu who, apart from scoring, was a real handful for their defenders. What might not be appreciated by some is that looking at their league performances in 2024, they have not lost any game by more than one goal and in 2024 have also drawn 5 games including Mansfield, Barrow and Walsall and beaten Notts County.

To concede in the bizarre circumstances we did should not take away from our overall good performance and finally, I hope I don’t ever need to go back there again.

So .... the referee saw nothing from 5 yards away, whilst the lino saw something through a melee of players from 50 yards away, and he was so eagle-eyed that he missed a blatant offside 2 minutes later?  I hadn't realised it was in the melee until I saw one of our fans vlog where it became obvious that the bloke raised his flag immediately the ball ping-ponged around in the goalmouth.

The linesman flagged earlier for a foul, the ref verbally belated him for diong so, but had no option but to give it. The ref obviously didn't want the linesman to flag a foul again, but he did and the ref again had a go at him, and did not give the free kick. So this was the linesman getting his own back onthe ref by flagging a penalty. I was obvious that the ref did not want to give it, but the linesman stood firm giving the ref no option. The linesman refused to shake the refs hand at the end of the game.

Would love to read the assesors report.


P.S. we where sat right in the corner and saw everything.

The club need to submit a statement to the EFL and ask them to make some sort of judgement on the pair. It won’t change the outcome or the result so no real point getting our knickers in a twist any longer, but this kind of ludicrous, egotistical power struggle officiating is unprofessional, incompetent and could potentially be pivotal to outcomes for lots of people. It might mean jack in the end, but you can’t have this. Some ego trip back and forth tussle between officials. Pathetic and disgraceful and shouldn’t be allowed to recur.

You would get your meal replaced so what’s the point of kicking off . We won’t get our 2 points back that they stole
