I think that you have missed my point.

I mean a good and fair referee, but on both sides. One where people wont be talking about the refereeing for days on end, but the match.

If it was a fair referee, Salford fans may not be as uptight.

Also, after recent refereeing performances against Wakey, there are a lot of fans out there at the moment, getting rather annoyed.

I know you are not advocating it Eastern but ref has nothing to do with hooliganism, hooligans are to blame for that.
I'm no angel but I've never felt the need to fight anyone because of a ref decision..... Or even sing offensive songs, or throw beer at people.

It's part of the game and disappointing as the refs can be it's no excuse for bad behaviour on either side.

Well I'm not sure if you went to the corresponding match last season but we had a certain referee called Robert Hicks, I'm sure that I'm not on my own when I say that was the worst display of refereeing I've ever seen by a professional referee, so maybe if Cobb referee's it in the same one sided manner as his colleague Hicks did, and lets face it he's more than capable as we've already found out to our detriment then maybe those poor badly done to Salford fans won't be uptight, one thing for sure though I'll bet you half a crown one set of fans will go home unhappy, uptight or not please God let it be theirs

We've never had and never will a drum. Think you're getting mixed up my old chap.

You obviously don't go back as far as I do Ave it!!
