Ref was good. That was the lino’s Call that. To be fair multiple slow motion replays were required before it was stated that he was definitely offside.

Of course he was good, we won. The ref in the Reading match was slated because he took two seconds to use technology to confirm we had equalised. People on here saying he was'nt going to allow the goal etc. If we had lost yesterday to the same goal we scored, this forum would have been full of how the ref was a disgrace and should never be allowed to ref again. Only happens when we lose, if the decisions work in our favour those same fans who would be calling for the officials to be moved to the lower leagues are always silent.
As long as we keep winning, the ref won't be mentioned. Wait until the next time we drop points and watch the outrage at the decisions made by the ref.

Refs today just cannot tell the difference between a foul and a good tackle, the old adage about the ref being blind is very apt today, just look at the SW v Wolves game
Some really terrible decisions there. I don't know why refs are getting worse, but they definitely are

I agree we see some bad decisions and some refs are worse than others. What I'm saying is whenever we drop points invariably there will be numerous comments on here stating it was the ref's fault irrespective of how good or poor he was. If we win, he will rarely get a mention even if he has a terrible game. Yesterday's goal was 100% offside, and imagine the outrage on this forum if that goal had been scored by Hull. Because we scored it there has been no mention of the ref (apart from by me), and I am trying to prove a point I previously made that some you win some you lose. It all evens itself out over the course of a season. When we lose, it is usually because we deserve to lose and not because of other factors. We had a bit of luck last night, but although Hull fans may complain, they lost because we were the better team on the night.
I'm not sure if refs are getting worse, you may well be right. What I do know is there is far more cheating going on in the modern game, and the way some players go to ground when they are caught by a slight breeze that would barely be enough to move a feather is laughable.

Been a while since i saw a city team give everything and as a fan thats what i demand and we a getting it so im happy. Not a great game but 3 points clean sheet.
Lee tomlin ran his back side off when clearly hes not fit produced a man of the match performance in my book for that good touch to.
Enjoyed it we have a good team there good manager it looks good with all those players to come back to.
And the sol bamba song was sang brilliantly was great to.

It's difficult to fault this team, as they are giving everything and that is all most city fans have ever asked for. The rest, as they say, is a pleasant bonus!
