On the strength of today's performance, and I don't mean just the joke penalty, he would struggle to control a park match. The man should be immediately suspended and re-trained. But will it happen? Of course not!

Simon Hooper- referee, cheat or just an incompetent buffoon?

About right and should only be allowed to take charge of Sunday morning games - total ****wit
Eddie Howe commented words to the effect of "that apart from getting the penalty decision wrong, the ref had a decent game as he normally does when he has our games" in his interview after the game.
Just got a decision wrong today, as human beings are liable to do.

It was never a penalty as Calde clearly won the ball, and from where the referee was standing he couldn't have been 100% sure either way! But the player was going nowhere and calde shouldn't have given the opportunity to the ref to even think about giving the penalty, was a stupid challenge.
There were a couple of fouls on your players which were so blatant it genuinely had a few around me in laughter when they weren't given.
The penalty, he was the only person in the ground that thought it.
The inability to stop your lot time wasting, which started 24 minutes in, was also pretty shocking.

Incompetent should be knocked down to League 2.

The linesman closet to the north stand was poor to. It's like they are only there to make offside calls.
If we could finish, the decision would have been irrelevant.
We have all had poor games, sadly today the referee had his.
The penalty was such a bad decision, that you sometimes wonder whether there is an argument for video review (never thought I'd say that).

A referee has to concentrate fully for around about 100 minutes with a 15 minute break. Making a major mistake as he dId today is inexusable.

Well ulloa caught the ball with his hands in the 47th minute.
Also, they should have been given a pen close to the end of the first half.

Anybody who trys to defend the ref for giving a penalty for that either needs laser eye surgery or nurse ratchett .

Seeing the highlights on SSN just now , I can recommend that Simon Hooper needs to go to Specsavers.

They should have had a penalty in the first half, that was a spot on one and right in front of the lino too

This. And this thread wouldn't have seen the light of day!
OK he wasn't the best ref, but we should look at ourselves rather than a poor decision which was given so early in the match that we could/should have pulled it around. Although the woodwork didn't help.
