So thats ok then, thank you for clarifying that someone hurt by your fans was ok because of the situation, thats not convenient whatsoever is it.

He certainly did his eyes were obviously not working properly and I think Mcmanus should have complained because to anyone that could see it was a double movement. That two points would have seen us sat second now.

You seem to be lashing out in all directions and you're desperation looks, well, desperate.
Your Chairman went way past the mark, way past it, end of, as the youff would say,

What you (and many other saints fans) are just not getting is that this isn’t about your chairman criticising a referees performance, as you quite rightly say lots of others including owners, coaches etc. have done so in the past.
This is about saying ‘in reality’ the referees impartiality was compromised! That’s a very serious accusation to make. Can I ask whether you think that was the case?

No he didn’t , he made a mistake, your attempt to exonerate McManus fails because of your lack of honest appraisal.

Really speaking ,shouldn't any kind of threat on social media have been policed & filtered by the particular site ?

Pot, kettle and black if he did.

What would be massively unfair on Hicks is that he misses out on the chance to referee a major showpiece final because the chairman of one of the finalists in the previous one behaved so crassly.

| If the RFL have got any balls at all, they'll make sure Robert Hicks gets a fair crack at the final, regardless of which teams are involved; a bitter club chairman can't dictate who referees what.

I don't think McManus would have any concern if he reffed the Grand Final with his team involved in it, the only influence is maybe nearly every no try/try would go up to the video ref.
As far as dictating who referees what, since the Warrington players and coach made a scathing attack on referee James Child quite a while ago I don't think he's refereed a game involving Warrington since, is that a coincidence or will we see that situation continue for the rest of the season.

I couldn't give any $h1ts at all what 'concerns,' or otherwise, McManus has about referee appointments - and neither should the RFL.
