Seen some bad ones in this league but he was by far the worst I've ever seen.

Diabolical refereeing.

But even worse miss from Harris in 93rd minute.
Just maybe we overeated.

It's happened before

He wasn't good enough to reach mediocrity.
Not saying it's his fault we lost, but the 2nd yellow wasn't a foul and it was right in front of the lino who appeared to say feck all to him (he didn't flag for a foul). The ref and same lino missed a clear handball in the box with the defenders hand way above his head. The same lino again, and the ref both missed a blatant pull back on Nolan when we had a 3 on 2 break.
Generally, it looks like every official has been told to allow shirt pulling all over the pitch.

Correction it was Nolan.

If Clarky keeps turning a blind eye to our midfield he will be sacked yet again.

He looked like an overweight bank clerk who’d won a competition to referee a football match and whose only interest in sport was wheelchair croquet ….
