We’ve had some raw deals this season, and I’ve questioned even the integrity of officials at times.
But today, those cheats asked for three pens, that was their game plan… and fair play, he could have… but he didn’t.

Yep, have to say I was surprised he didn’t buckle.

None of them were pens. Cheating twats Preston throwing themselves to the floor. But agree he did well not to bow to pressure and give a soft one.

I always watch the officials having been one myself (a long time ago)
The Ref today did OK especially with the Pen appeals.
I did think the booking of Burger was harsh.
We have had some awfully bad guys over the last few seasons but today's was not to bad.😊

Preston fans were moaning about him leaving the ground, but we had 23 shots & corners to their 6. They lost because we were better in every department, the ref was incidental.

He didn’t have to book Burger, he did nothing wrong despite what some have said on here about picking the ball up. |

Second penalty shout was beyond pathetic, has to book him for diving, it was a shocker
The first one the guy trod on the ball lost his balance and tried to turn it into a dive
If you are going to dive at least be good at it

I didn't think Burger should have been booked but their player should for being aggressive with the push so think he booker Burger for causing the push |

Thats what he did wrong, picked the ball up Yellow card Didn't book Whiteman for picking it up & jogging away with it early second half? ( which would have been his second yellow) Says it all really that we are praising an official for not giving pens that were not pens doesn't it |

Thats what he did wrong, picked the ball up Yellow card Well if it’s a yellow card offence then book everyone that does it, the reaction of their player to push him over resulting in a booking for Burger shows that the ref is as weak as piss. If it’s a rule (and I’m not aware of the rule) it needs to be equal for everyone. You’re a knowledgeable football man, do you think it “should” be a yellow and would you advocate that every player that does it should be booked? I personally think it’s farcical. Fair enough if they’re holding on and deliberately keeping the ball from the opposition for a long period but he had it for around two seconds and was looking to throw it back as their player stood in front of him. It was shithousery from their player. |

The pen decisions would have been waved away by Stevie Wonder they were that pathetic |

DJ got booked for it first couple of games of the season, when time wasting was against the rules for a fortnight, seem to recall we got summat like 5 bookings in one game for similar things that you see up & down the country every single time the whistle is blown Refs love to apply the letter of the law to Stoke, have done for years, whilst letting anything & everything the opposition does pass them by, it seems to be a bit of a badge of honor for them to show they wont be intimidated by big bad mean old stoke ( something we haven't been for as good while) |

I think at least one of their playacting attempts to get a penalty deserved a yellow, but it wasn't given in any of the cases.  |

Just read on internet that Preston have apparently received an apology from the PGMOL (referee body) because they weren't awarded a definite penalty against Hull last week. I really hope they get another one in the next few days too about Saturday's game. Good to see a referee decline 3 penalty appeals in one game, especially when they were for the home team and against Stoke. They're not all against us after all.

They don't half love to strut and make a point that they're not intimidated at Stoke. |

I think anyone shown to dive looking for a pen (no contact/shameless rolling around) should be sent off and banned for 3 games. It’s pure cheating. Other sports go nuclear when players cheat. We just thank our stars the ref didn’t get conned.

The ref obviously thought that by Burger picking up the ball he was deliberately delaying the restart of play, although that’s debatable given the short length of time he held it. You’re right though re the inconsistencies. |

The problem I have is that it only seems to apply when Stoke players do it. It happens numerous times in every game ever played and players aren’t booked. Why this one? Unless of course he was gobbing off at the same time. He does like to share his opinion with the ref does Wouter. |
