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.

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...  8)

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

Swings and roundabouts loser!

Am I missing something?

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.

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.

Apple dumplings and clotted cream-a speciality in Devon.

I suspect he wanted play to be brought back which also depends how long they had the advantage.

Rule changed a few years ago so that if a player requires treatment after a foul and the offending player received a card then the player does not need to stay off the pitch IF the assessment and/or treatment is completed quickly.

In this instance the player received a lengthy treatment to an apparent shoulder injury and the referee was correct to make the player leave the field despite Gibson receiving a yellow card.

First goal is obviously very important, but we were full value for the win otherwise. The third goal was a thing of beauty. Swings and roundabouts. We got done at Salford in weird circumstances.

No we didn’t.

Not at all.
Exeter was a convincing win & obvious diversion tactics  from the manager to the press.
Personally I have no interest after the game has finished in the what the opposition manager has to say.

You win some you lose some take a leaf out of jolly’s book and get on with it .

It's tough at the top Exeter especially when little ole Grimsby topple you off your pedestal lol.

I love to hear opposing managers whining... means we given them a spanking 😂👍

If Slade did referees..

Who?

Wot a male private
He could have had 20 Players on the pitch and they wouldn’t have stop Robson’s first goal
Come on Town!! Build on last weeks fantastic result
