Referees and Everton 2022/2023

[peteblue]

I don’t think I’ve witnessed a game that was refereed so bad, from all the officials. We’ve had games with awful decisions, but even the basics he got wrong

And how did the linesman even think that Gordon was offside.

The linesman should be sacked for that tbh. I watched it on the tv and saw he wasn‘t even before a replay….

Ref lost total control of the game today

What in the name of everything that's holy was that linesman thinking. It absolutely beggers belief.

And var took about two minutes on it ?

Ref lost total control of the game today

He had plenty of opportunities to book their players after 3/4 fouls. Would have kept a grasp on it if he'd done the right thing. Farcical at times.

We have had some terrible decisions from refs all season and that carried on today. They definitely shouldn’t have had all 11 on the pitch at the end but…. the two dropped balls today were correct.

For the first one the ball was in the area so is dropped to the goalkeeper regardless of who has possession, the second one is outside the area so dropped to the team in possession or who touched it last when play was stopped. The ball is dropped where that final touch happened. (Law 8.2)

Ref today was atrocious.

Wait - you mean all these people complaining that the ref got it wrong don't know the laws of the game and the ref actually got it right?

Overall I thought the ref had a good game, he did lose control a bit in the second half, but he was trying hard to just keep the game going and not stop it for every tackle. Unfortunately some players see that as an opportunity to go in even harder, resulting in some brutish tackles.

The linesman flagging our goal offside - he also wrongly flagged Zaha offside in the first half - that is a couple of obvious errors he made.

Also, I thought that the game needed to be stopped if a second ball was on the pitch?

He’s just telling players to boot it out the utter tit

Remember the other week when the man utd injured player was allowed to stay on the pitch,ridiculous rule I think but it is a ruling to go off?

Oh yeah... what was all that about? Only minor, but was there a justification for allowing him to stay on in that particular incident?

 

[Thomasc]

He warned Ayew his next foul was a booking...

.... Then didnt book him when he made another foul.

Just saw that, how the hell was Ayew not booked yesterday?

and the foul he warned him for shou;d have been a booking,

 

[MikeH72]

The linesman that flagged that second goal should be sacked. And Zaha should’ve been sent off for going through the back of Gordon’s neck.

 

[McBain]

Just saw that, how the hell was Ayew not booked yesterday?

He ran up, pointed to three different fouls he committed and didn’t book him when he did it again. Hooper reffing out of his hoop again.

On these occasions where you’re not sounding bitter because you won, the manager should highlight the poor decisions in this match.
