Just look at the Welling bully in photos 19 and 20.

19 wasnt even deemed a free kick, that was the point of yesterday, challenges by us were free kicks if 50/50 or players colliding and yet they could go in late, hold us, go over the top or make a back and and he waved play on. Getting the referee at it was part of their gameplan, the dives and squeals were oscar worthy, it worked ... well done to them but they are dressing it up as a deserved win. What we were doing for their first is questionable i think out defence and midfield were shopping at lakeside, the second was offside, hes interfering end of story.

Once we never asserted after being dominant for 25 mins and trying to play football, they stopped us/broke us up and got the ref at it.

To say it was a deserved win, is frankly laughable. I would concede they got their aims and their gameplan of getting away with fouls, diving and conning the ref worked a treat.

Number five would have enjoyed the game a lot more had there been no ball on the pitch.

Not sure what it is but we never get fair refs at Thurrock. I don't know why.

You could see how our team pulled away from fair challenges because they knew the ref would blow up for a foul and more likely get booked. The ref also stopped play several times when advantage was obvious.

The thing we should ask ourselves is...... if it was a different ref in charge would we have had 6 bookings and lost the game? I don't think so. The influence refs can have is huge, many don't really influence matches that much but yesterday he did.

In my opinion he was a disgrace, not just to us but to the game of football.

Can't help but notice that there is still no sponsor on our shirts. Access Cars won't be too happy about that! When will it appear on the shirts?

In Slow Mo just for you Russ, Highlights should be up just after 745. to keep them below an hour just stuck to the goals and aussie rules tackles and joao carlos award winning attempts plus bookings, you will see what i mean about parky booked only after their player got at the ref. Bodkins early foul surely a red card the way the ref booked us?



EDIT highlights around 845 Youtube spewed it and rejected it so another 28 mins to reupload it.

I was actually referring to the foul at 8:30 where the carthorse managed to go through two players' backs and handball without so much as a free kick being awarded.
