Was the referee on Tuesday who wrongly sent off Indi a decision which was unprecedentedly (for us anyway) rescinded.
His punishment for this potentially game affecting error (and an all round generally poor performance)?
He gets to referee top of the table Norwich away at Wigan where he has given a penalty to Wigan which was never a penalty in a million years.
Another error which may affect the outcome of the game and potentially the promotion race.
He'll be in the Prem next week you'd expect.
PS Danny Higginbottom is a massive weapon.

The Norwich players reaction, holding his face when it never touched his face, was enough reason to give the penalty for me - the player clearly knew it had hit his hand and thought the best thing to do was to pretend and try & con the official. |

I have a lot of sympathy for referees, who have a difficult job, made harder by cheating players, yet some of their decisions are truly confusing...and they never seem to get 'punished' for it. A couple of weeks "suspension" coupled with some retraining might have more effect that dropping down a division where they can inflict their incompetence on some other poor side (Roger East - this means you!) I thought the officials yesterday were particularly poor...although more competent than our 4 centre backs at defending corners and throw ins  |

The ref yesterday was guessing decisions throughout the game. At one point in front of where I was sitting he turned to see a Rotherham player on the ground and assumed there was a foul and blew his whistle.

Both waited for the ref to make the decision before raising their flag on every occasion. I haven't seen it back but can anyone confirm their second was offside? It certainly looked that way. |

Their “back room” staff got a message through on a headset a couple of minutes or so later and turned to the others on the bench and said “ he was offside” so I guess he was, not seen it myself though |

I thought exactly that at the time. The fucker should be banned. I don't think it was a pen but immediately felt glad he'd given it for that reason. |

Unless there was someone out of shot playing him on. Not a difficult one to spot either head down from a throw. |

I thought the officials yesterday were particularly poor...although more competent than our 4 centre backs at defending corners and throw ins I've just plucked up the courage to watch the highlights. And don't get me wrong we were so shite we didn't even deserve a point but we should actually have got all three. Both their goals were offside. The second one was as clear as day (and even looked off from block 29). He was at least a yard off and it's gross incompetence by the lino. The first is a bit more difficult but from the corner there is a Rotherham player standing in front of Butland blocking him off. When Vaulkes heads the ball goalward the player in front of Butland is in an offside position and interfering because he is both blocking Jack's view and movement. Both should have been disallowed. Same Lino, same shite. |

For their second goal from the throw the ball is headed forward but then deflects off Shawcross' head into the path of the goalscorer.
I stopped pretending to fully understand offside rules a long time ago, but maybe the fact it came off Shawcross is a factor in the goal standing.

I,ve watched it again mate and when he heads it fprward the goalscorer is offside at that point. It does deflect off Ryan's head but the lad was in an offside position at the point it was headed goalward. |

But I thought that nowadays the ‘offside player’ was only offside when he played the ball, rather than at the point it was headed to him, so as technically it was headed to him by Ryan, he’s not actually offside. I’m probably wrong. To be honest, I’m almost past caring these days.  |

But it does highlight how cack the offside rule is and or the incompetent interpretation by officials. |
