“The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they do not know the game.”

not surprised tbh the way they acted at qpr during the match at the weekend was utterly unprofessional. chelski have always had a thing about surrounding the ref which goes back to the time mourinho was in charge of the club. |

Before the QPR game Villas-Boas has come across as a very cool character, assured and calm but he let himself down massively with his comments against Foy. To claim Foy got 2 decisions right and the rest wrong is pathetic and instead he should look at the behavior of his players. They ran around like they simply deserved to win. The ref wasn't great, none of them seem to be these days but it was his players mistakes that lost the game. I'm a fan of AVB but he is already starting to show signs of pressure after his outburst. |

yeah uwe, there is a lot of inconsistency were the refs are concerned so far this season. i know different refs have different views on each situation but a lot of them seem to not be using their common sense. |

I think its pressure mate. PL games have so many cameras the ref doesn't stand a chance. Sometimes the media replay a decision over and over from 2, 3 or 4 angles just to prove a man who made judgement at full speed without the benefit of a replay. I'd never be a ref cos i'd probably end up doing a Cantona

i know that feeling fella, i would end up smacking a player or something ![]() if their feeling the pressure, then the need for the video ref is more crucial. at least it would ease the pressure on them a bit |

You think you get it bad? Tonight at Rugby Park the ref waved play on to a tackle (East Fife fwd swung at ball and caught McKeown) and Killie kicked the ball out for McKeown to recieve treatment. Our Captain complained to the ref as it should have been a free kick and got booked for his protest, amazingly the ref then went and sent of the East Fife fwd for a second bookable offence Even as a Killie fan I was left scratching my head. The ref and lino clearly never seen the incident but went on a crowd shout and opposition captains complaint to decide to send the player off. It really ruined the game for them as they are only a 2nd div club and it was a chance for them to get to a cup semi, |

AVB was wrong......... and right! He was wrong to say what he did in public, but he was right that Foy was shocking! |
| Trying to get an accurate picture of reality, even when that's unpleasant or inconvenient! | |

I was listening to talk sport on the way to football yesterday and they where saying that QPR have put a complaint in to the FA about an article on chelsea's website that basically labels them as a championship side. Has anyone got the article? also why would you complain? There is no better way of getting your players motivated then by showing them that article. |

That's the problem. Refs expect respect, but IMO it has to be earned and for me all they would have to do is come out and admit they're wrong. Even if they put it down to being human, not seeing it etc. I'd certainly respect them a lot more for admitting faults. |

I'm not sure they are always allowed to have interviews about the game mate? I agree respect should be earned but players should try earning it too. They fall over, pretend to be injured, scream at ref, swear, intimidate and hussle refs from start to finish then after the game the manager takes over! Then after that its the media. Refs dont stand a chance apology or not. You might respect them more for an apology but the people in the game dont give a fork as long as they get the decisions they want by almost any means including cheating. I'm not completely siding with refs and will no doubt be complaining about one soon myself but respect has to start somewhere and for me it should start with the people in the game....not the man in the middle. |

Referees are terrible at the end of the day! always get a lot decisions wrong yet when the managers are asked what they thought of the game they are punished for telling the truth! That said Terry and Lampard are probably the worst players for surrounding the refs!

I agree about the players and that's why I think 99% are winkers I've said it loads on here the 'gentlemen' of football are a dying breed.I'm not sure, but I know the refs used to come out from time to time and admit why they made a decision. Paul Durkin that fella who went and played as Gimli in LOTR was on TV earlier on Premier league years (03/04 iirc) and they asked him about his decision - he said something along the lines of where he was he couldn't give decision A as if your not sure you shouldn't give it. He also explained why he made another decision which was of a dissallowed goal. I know they're only human and can make mistakes like everyone does but admitting you're wrong would show you're the bigger man generally and I honestly think they would be respected so much more. It's very rare a refs decision isn't a major talking point in any game, even uf they came out and did a Wenger "I didn't see it to justify said decision being made" I think the grief they get would be reduced by any level headed person. Media are nothing but whores 99% of the time and write controversial shite because they know the frenzy it causes makes people read. Look at rugby for a mutual respect, if a foul is made only the captain can question the decision and even then the ref explains why he gave it and such. If football took a more mutual respect look of things rather than the ref is the boss and he is not at fault regardless stubborn approach I personally, perhaps naively believe things would change. |

I agree Sicillian, footie could learn a lot from rugby. At the moment refs are gagged from talking to the media which is wrong, Id make it compulsory for ref and assts to do the first post match interview together. |
