I doubt any manager will really state what they think but it was a poor performance.

Her sex has nothing to do with it, she is either ready for the championship or not, and on today's evidence she believes cards are the way to control games.

She isn't the worst we have had by any shot, but she wasn't the advert the advocates relish.

We didn't lose because of her, our inability to hold onto the ball up top and not track a runner was responsible for that

Any idea what the Ralls booking was about, did he speak to her and the drop ball when they kicked the corner straight out, what was that about ?

The problem with fast-tracking is they lack experience but how do they get experience if they are not tried? She shouldn't get many more championship games, but there are a few bald, middle-aged men ahead of her in that queue as well.

100% agree. I really wanted her to have a good match today as we need more women in the game officiating but she was had a poor game and on this evidence is not worthy of being in the Championship

Thought she did ok, there'll always be 50/50 calls, not help by linesmen either. 7/10

What happened when they put a corner kick straight into the side netting,seemed a lot of confusion and looked like nobody new what she had given.
Hopeless referee performance

I didn’t see it but someone around me said Ralls was booked for kicking the ball away after she had blown the whistle for the free kick she gave against him.

Raquel Welch would have done a better job.

Not the worst referee we've had this season but then if she'd brought a guide dog and white stick on the pitch she'd still have been better than that cheating prick Bobby Madley.

However she made a major mistake in not giving a penalty for the foul on Bowler.

Her sex is everything to do with it.
Fast tracked to our game Why?
She hogged the midfield more than the players.
Linemens didn't help.I was right in line pen and 3rd goal. Shame the linesmen weren't.
Kevin McNughton had the idea kick them into the grandstand.
Keep women out of mens football

Booked Ralls, when it was not a foul, didn't give a penalty when looked a foul, missed the guy climbing all over our player which led to a goal, constantly fell over trying to keep up and hardly came out of the centre circle, but we were poor

True equity for me is when it doesn't matter sex or race, they are just refs.

We need to find the next generation to replace the Kieth Strouds and bobby Madleys who are hopeless, she has been to the women's world cup which had decent crowds and media attention, so the idea isn't that bad, but she didn't do her cause any good.

I liked Sam Allison the ex pro who is also being fast-tracked because he was a pro

[To summerise. The ref had no balls.

She had a dreadful game end of. Not a question of being sexist, she just wasn't good enough, poor decisions given to both sides.

I was speaking to a lady who sits near us today for her view on this, as she knows as much as a lot of blokes about football and is always reasonable in her thoughts. She said the ref was out of her depth and also disagrees with women reffing men's football, especially at this level and on balance, I agree with her.

She was terrible today , didn't seem fit enough to keep up with play and some of the calls for both sides were shocking , the one what was the worse was when a corner was taken and sospis ducked , she gave a drop ball no one knew what it was for; coz if never went in play then it should of been retaken but it definitely went in play as it was out in the corner D about 8in so it would be in play before it went out .

Why is the refereeing so poor ?
We had some bad refs this year but todays took the biscuit.

Also what is the point of linesman? They do fxxk all these days.
Some of the decisions today were terrible and linesman from the grandstand side wtf?? Off side or what??? Yards and yards behind the last man just couldn't keep up with play.

I just hope they all a zero mark and won't be refereeing any time soon.

Hopeless referee performance

this exactly what I was thinking should of been a goal kick wrong call. she was dreadful and the linesman ninian stand side dint help seemed he was afraid to give his thoughts and always looked to her for decisions

Let's be honest, the ref was no worse or better than we have had at other times male or female

We sit here and moan every week about ref decisions this week no different

Today the ref wasn't helped by a really poor lino on the grandstand side. He was no help for any decisions be that throws , offsides or that penalty decision for which he had the perfect view.

Some here been quick to point the finger because the ref is female when the poor performances were elsewhere, the team included.

We were also poor, one eye on the 2 week break, lacked energy. We didn't deserve anything from that game

Your sisters, your daughters can grow up and be what ever they want to be. Hopefully with supportive brothers and fathers around them ( that's your role by the way).

There are no lines anymore (and by the looks of it no offside ones either)

The linesman have been the real shock this season, they make zero decisions. May as well not be there
