IlsonDerby Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 blaming the ref for yesterday? I know it's not everyone but it's a fair few. Jumping on the fact it's the same ref who sent Martin off v Burnley. The penalty was a bit dubious but they didn't score from it. He could/should of given Keogh his second booking for the melee at the end of the game but didn't. We were made to look like a youth team yesterday, we were bullied and had no response to it. I use 'bullied' lightly though because that doesn't do Wigan justice. They came with a game plan to get in our faces and not give us a second and it worked. Their fitness levels were phenomenal, to press for the whole game must have been exhausting. Occasionally there'll be games when we are not good enough and yesterday was one of them. McClaren had no plan B and our players had no composure under pressure (which is unusual for us) I was shocked before kick off when Hendrick had been put back to the bench, very naive I thought considering Wigan are a very big side. These contributed to our downfall a lot more than a referee. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/17086-can-we-stop/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted McMinn Football Genius Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I thought only Neil Warnock blamed the ref each and every time his side lost. We had a bad day is all. Have to agree with Illson. We have to be able to cope with teams coming at us like Wigan yesterday, we are top of the league and there to be shot at by everyone else in the division. Let's be realistic, we had to lose sooner or later. What's to say we can't start another 10 game run, we dust ourselves down and crack on. When we end up winning the league we can look back at the matches where we got some ropey decisions and some went against us. That's Football, confusing/frustrating and that's why we love it.

Tombo Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Don't blame the ref but I'm now 100% sure that Robert Madley absolutely fcking hates us. He can't stand us for some reason. But yeah, there were plenty of other reasons why we lost. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/17086-can-we-stop/#findComment-720830 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Wake up call yesterday. Wigan had Premiership players with a good level of experience in some key positions yesterday. QPR, Burnley and Leicester all in bottom four today. Three wins form 27 matches between them.17 points from 81 between them. Championship is avery tough league but Premiership can be rock hard without quality strikers.

Dai Capp Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Yep, that ref is a particularly spectacular lemon, but we were poor yesterday. We were out thought and out worked - it's a long time since I've said that...

Leicester Ram Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I don't blame the ref, at all, he didn't have a spectacular effect on the game; I just find Madeley's style extremely irritating.

uttoxram75 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 We didn't deserve to beat Wigan so i won't blame the ref. Although a stint in non-league would not do Mr. Madley any harm..... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-29772988 A non league football match was abandoned after the referee was hit by a bottle thrown from the crowd, it has been claimed. Banbury United said the official called off its Southern League Premiergame with Slough Town at half time. Thames Valley Police attended Spencer Stadium at about 16:00 BST and said it was investigating after a bottle was thrown onto the pitch. Reports on social media have suggested the bottle hit the referee. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/17086-can-we-stop/#findComment-721133 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashz09 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I didn't really blame the ref he was awful for both sides. I liked there managers comments thoe that they were playing high up the pitch and changed some squad members just for the energy levels so we couldn't play it out from the back. I think half the time they were the passing team of this division lol. I just hope other teams don't follow his tatics.. To be fair then we'll have to think of different ways to play it out.

PistoldPete2 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 ref was average yesterday - but done blame him Keogh (although the first yellow was harsh) was lucky to stay on the pitch at the end Ref was not average he was absolutely sh1te, and the fact that but land saved the dodgy peno shouldn't let him off the hook. This guy should never referee a football match again, and certainly not a game that derby play in. Sure derby were sh1te too and deserved to lose. But that doesn't stop me saying this is one of the worst refs ever. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/17086-can-we-stop/#findComment-721546 Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkshireRam Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I saw a few comments in a few threads suggesting it was the ref.. I actually thought he had a fairly decent game, apart from the penalty decision. We've had worse referees recently. Luckily his one poor decision didn't lead to Wigan taking any advantage so we can't really blame him for the defeat.
