The fell over, wasted time and conned the ref the whole game!! Too right. Especially the incident with the keeper. Nobody touched him when he went down in the second half. It wss shocking ~ i was in the family stand and he collapsed ~ should be ashamed

The whole ground seemed to be singing "sh*t referee" during the game that doesn't normally happen. Also not sure which is worse, their gamesmanship aka cheating or the inept officials for not dealing with it.

When the fans in the East Terrace start chanting at the ref "your worse than Huxtable" you know things are bad and can only get worse. We have had some bad, nay, discusting incompetant refs before, but this one plunged the refereeing to a new low. I would describe him as being a Peon (definition is of a person with an I.Q of one less than a carrot. I know Huxtable (understandably) gets some stick but in his defence he was very firm on time wasting by booking players early which set the tone.

Of course you can blame the perpetrators! You can blame them as well as the officials who let them get away with it. Why does it have to be a case of either or?

Sadly stealing is part of life now but it's not their fault it's everyone else for letting then get away with it!!!! I could go on.

If the Law was properly enforced then the likelihood of being caught and the penalty for committing the crime would discourage the activity.....

Until fifa bring in retrospective game bans for simulation it will carry on. I strongly believe that if you had a referral panel, just like you have for bad tackles that get missed, for cases where a dive has led to a penalty, to get another player sent off, or anything which leads to a direct advantage to your team, which led to a 3 game ban we would see most of the simulation end. If a player knew that he would get a 3 game ban for deliberately falling over a player then he might think twice about his approach to the game

It was indeed used in Scotland first and has also come in to play in England this season. A panel of 3 people reviewing penalties , yellows reds etc and anyone found guilty of diving can be given a ban.

Alex Rodman: I heard him, the ref, 15 minutes in, say right by me, he asked the fourth official if he could ask the Bristol Rovers staff if they thought the Shrewsbury goalkeeper was timewasting.
He new he was time wasting after 15 mins, and still didn't book him.

Sadly, cheating is now a part of the game. Its not the fault of the cheats its the fault of the people that let them cheat. But if the cheating barstewards didn't cheat, there wouldn't be a need to stop them cheating. Are these two year olds who will run riot if they aren't controlled, or adults? Very sad that the officials are being blamed for the failings of the overpaid morons known as the modern player.

Whilst they go unpunished by officialdom, they will continue to succeed. I fear it will never get sorted, and the standards will continue to decline.

Penalties don't count and players shouldn't be blamed for cheating.
Heard it all now

I've refereed some of my boys games it's absolutely impossible to see everything that's going on even at kids football level.
Referees have such a difficult job and they are being let down by cheaters, divers and players acting in an unprofessional and unsportsmanlike way.
Yes, the ref yesterday was water poor, but a lot of the blame should be laid at the door of the modern footballer.

It's quite obvious that we the spectators get a wider picture from wherever we watch than the referee who is much closer to the action and does not have eyes in his arse to see everything that goes on. The players know this and get away with loads of things we can see and the ref can't. It is also obvious to us all that the linesmen and fourth official hardly ever get involved in decision making for some reason and leave the ref out to dry on occasions when quite clearly they have seen what has happened.
