It was like subconsciously the Forrest ground affected his every decision. Guy is a joke of a referee. I sincerely hope I never see him officiate another Preston match in his hopefully short career. Supposedly a premiership ref. I would have him referee my wife’s baking contest.

Referee wasn't the problem. We didn't turn up. Simple.

 

[MrBoomBoom]

He’s not the reason we lost 3-zip.

 

[Staffordwhite]

He could easily have sent Storey off twice towards the end.

Did any of you guys commenting watch the game? Or listen? I ask because it would appear that you’ve perhaps been listening

I was there. 🙁

He had a poor game which isn't unusual given the poor standard at the moment.

However, he wasn't to blame for our defeat.

I didn't attend today. But, on one of my previous visits to the City Ground, I witnessed a refereeing performance to rank alongside the worst of all time. Step forward Barry Knight(mare). Hooper can't have been worse than that incompetent prick.

 

[Doyler]

Yeah he was a proper cunt

 

[Soapy]

Far more concerned with our lack of imagination and creativity.

 

[BPIG]

He was shite but got the only major decision of the game right when he gave them a penalty. Didn’t think ours was a pen in the first half but I was pretty much on the front row so was hard to tell

Pneintervention is simply saying that this ref was extremely poor and made no reference to PNE's ineptitude.

Thanks! Was waiting for someone to point that out. The responses are like I was trying to insinuate that we played great by saying the ref was a ‘homer’ and gave weak decisions to pander to a partisan hone support.

 

[Sid Snot]

I didn't like his smily little chinwag with Grabban; too chummy for my liking and not professional.

 

[Deleted member 15792]

He wasn't to blame, but he definitely contributed. He definitely didn't come across as a neutral professional ref to me.

 

[Tino]

He was rubbish and like Jon Moss gives a lot of free kicks because he struggles to get around the pitch.

 

[Final Stand]

Yeah he was a proper cunt

Can’t argue wit that. 🤣
