That last free, he didn't blow for the 'first' foul, blew for the obvious round the neck free, spoke to linesman, free then given for first free (which you can't do) and thankfully he missed

What is it there that the ref can't do?

Would blowing for the second foul not constitute a break in play during which the linesman could alert the ref to the first foul?

0.04 pts and 1.04pts from play not a great return over 75 odd mins.

Some cracking games so far this year...and then there's games like this.

I think everyone should think that not every game will be a 4-19 to 3-20 scoreline.

I look at it, like every other sport, there'll be good and bad games.  That's sport.

Flew to Oz once, delayed honeymoon. Pilot announced "this is an emergency descent" when we were over the Indian
Ocean. We were fine, but for a few mins I thought it would end up differently.

There was over 20000 foreigners armed to the teeth in the north for years don't remember any of these far right groups about then.

Most people assumed SF/IRA were nationalist. Turns out not to have been so.

Would have liked a win but happy enough.  We were massive underdogs and near had it.  Lav is still building and we are going in the right direction. Progresss is slow but progress all the same!

Awful spectacle, but good strategy from Lavery, nearly pulled of the shock of the season. The final free was a long-shot; did the ref tell hime he had to score direct?

Late goal/winner for Chelsea disallowed. Pochettino thinks the decision was unbelievable but the ref missed a push in the back in the lead up to the goal and for me the correct decision in the end.

Is that 'foul' a penalty at the other end?

Push a forward out of the way as he's about to shoot or create a chance in area then yes it should be a penalty.

But the ref had a curry in Birmingham recently and had to 'ignore' it due to his affliction to curry's
