Worst referee performance I have ever seen

[terryberry1]

I honestly thought he had sent their player off. I actually thought it was a 50-50 challenge, worst case scenario, Barnes at fault but when he was manhandled, is that not retaliation?

I was in the South and even the Burnley fans thought it was their player who got red. They were pissing their pants when they realised it was barnes

Just seen replays of key moments, courtesy of club. The issue not so much why the Albion players saw red as why Burnley duo escaped.

This.

If ours were both sending offs then their players should also have seen red.

Their player was mixing it with Vincelot - both should have a got a telling off and at worse a yellow each.

The guy tackling Barnes should have been red carded Barnes a yellow for possibly falling dangerously on the bloke tackling him.

Just before that tackle they comitted a similar tackle in front of the west on the half way line and were not booked.

Ref and the linesman were awful.

He was a bit ropey, but you can't argue that he got the two big decisions right.

No doubt of it the ref was enjoying the abuse he was getting. At half time he took forever to leave the pitch- arrogantly he held his head high thus winding up the fans even more. Same at the end. Incompetent twat.

 

[Lethargic]

True, but unless I missed a punch or something extremely aggressive, he did nothing more than get in Barnes' face and let him know what he thought of the tackle in a fairly lively way. I certainly didn't see it as violent conduct, which is what it needs to be to be a red. I honestly can't believe so many people are happy to overlook the fact we have a player who is stupid enough to make that tackle when we are already down to ten men and blame the Burnley player for getting a little bit excited in his response.

So you don't want our players to tackle, you think grabbing someone round the neck is right, you think its acceptable for their player to go in two footed and you are willing to ignore all the poor decisions both ways. Are you sure you are at the right end of the A23?

He was definitely one of those refs that seemed to think 20,000 people had paid their admission fee to watch him.

TCB in attention sheeking shocker....

Exactly and at the same time ruining everyones afternoon.

Not there today but again referee decisions determined the game. How many games like that? Saints game the other obvious example. As for worst ever, well I was at Selhurst over easter in the 80s when Kelvin Morton contrived to give them penalty after penalty, after penalty , after penalty and I think he also sent one of ours off. Despite this, palace just about limped to a 2-1 win in front of a huge crowd for palace, I think was about 14,500 in their souless tip, with 3000 plus BHA there as well.

The tackle was a 50/50, both players went diving in. Barnes just made a bit more contact. I still think he was trying to pull out of the challenge. The sensible thing would have been to give them both yellow cards. Barnes for the tackle and their player for his assault. I'm not saying we didn't deserve a red card, If Vincelot punched someone then he should be off but the Barnes to me was very harsh. With 10 men i think we would have won comfortably. Burnley were rubbish. How they beat West Ham at Upton Park i will never know

Clearly a tackle from behind!

It looked a lot more than "getting in his face". The bloke had both hands on Barnes' chest/throat. It was enought to earn him a booking at the very least.

This. How many time have you heard "You raise your hands and your have to go"? The Burnley player fcae palmed El-Abd and should have gone. The foul on Noone was blatant and the ref waved paly on. I am sad to said that Prosser has now lost the title of the worst ever person to referee a BHA home game since the Goldstone. Mr Prosser - RIP!

yes he got them both dead right, oh no wait a minute, did he send both of the Burnley players off? Did he send the Burnley player who manhandled El-Abd, Did he give a free kick for Noone when he was through? Did he give a penalty when Noone was bought down? Did he give Greer's goal. Did he give a goal kick when El-Abd kicked it out? I could go on but you are clearly blind deluded and an idiot!

And it is ok to deliberately try to handball the ball into the net. Burnley would be good in a basketball league.

Two footed challenge from behind = red card

Hands round neck & push = red card

If a player handles on the line to stop a goal he would be sent off. The same thing should happen if an attacking player tries to punch the ball into the net.

The way I see that after looking at it a few times is this.

At first, at the game I was shocked and fuming at the ref.

First time I saw it on TV, thought the ref may have been right.

Now, including seeing that, I think Barnes went to go in strongly but fairly for the ball. Saw the Burnley player come flying in and kept his feet in the air to avoid having his leg brocken only to land on their player, who I can only imagine thought Barnes was trying to stamp on him.

Ref sees that reaction and comes to the same, but incorrect conclusion.

Sent from my Nexus S using TapaTalk while bashing one out.

Are The complete badger and hustpierpoint one and the same?
I thought our lads battled valiantly and the crowd were magnificent today. I won't comment any further about the dickhea.....oops I mean ref, as enough has been said already.
