added time

[mrb85]

In the second half there were 5 substitutions for which refs are told to add 30 seconds on for each; and there 3 lengthy second half delays for treatment. Adding to this the fact that the keeper was taking 5 or more seconds longer than necessary over his goal kicks (something recognised by the ref and for which he was warned twice), then how come there was only 3 minutes added time?

The referee was pretty abysmal in general today, mate.

But yeeah 3 mins was deffo a joke.

Because the referee was a [Poor language removed] I think, mate.

I think you have it, Azzurri....although personally I thought he was a complete [Poor language removed].

 

[St Domingos 1878]

Laughable. Should have been 5 mins. Could've made a difference today...

Mannone loved to time waste

Probert is an arse off a referee, he loves the sound of his own whistle.

Doesn't actually do anything like book people, just blows up when contact is 'near'

It always happens with the opposition keeper at Goodison. Then when we take the lead Howard does it once and gets booked. Like last season when there'd be 4 or 5 bad fouls then as soon as Felli touched someone he'd be booked. Referees are terrible in this country.

 

[Azzurri]

To be fair he was quite bad both ways. There was one where Oviedo fell over then just threw himself across their player (good on ya lid) and he waved play on. Plus one which looked a lot like Lukaku shanked in straight out of play on the by line which was given as a corner.

The first of the five subs ( Barkley ) came on before the 2nd half kicked off so there were really only 4 lots of 30 seconds to add. It was going to be either 3 or 4 mins. Mannone's time wasting was clever. He took his time over everything and soon sussed out that the ref wasn't going to warn him about it so just carried on doing the same.

Ref was poor though. As was the guy running the line along the main stand.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Absolute **** of a referee today. From about two minutes in I realised we'd get nothing. At one point in the first half he completely guessed and awarded a corner to them when the linesman gave a goal kick. Laughable.

5 easily but today we cant hold the ref to blame for the loss, just a day when it just dosen't go your way

Precisely this. The ref made many bad decisions, but the penalty/redcard decision was spot on. The fact is we simply weren't good enough, I'm not certain we would have scored even with 2 more minutes.

Pienaar got away with a penalty call for them.
