Poor decisions by Thaler / Roby for both sides last night. We've got to stop believing this anti rovers agenda that's being touted around. The players and the majority of fans have bought into it and Sandy and Hudge have done nothing to stop it. IMO it promotes a negative culture at the club. There's no way that the officials go out to give all 50/50's to the other sides due to the fact that they hate us. I just think they're really poor at officiating and can't accept any criticism which seems to make them dig their heels in even more.

I fully agree !!!

When Jon sharpe goes on TV and States Roby is still very angry at Weymans appeal being successful, then he gives a decision like the Gardner one, from about 20 metres behind play, it's understandable for us poor simple souls in the East stand to feel as if certain officials have just a teeny weeny bit of an agenda

As a "neutral" I was going to mention that too, so thanks for being a voice of reason from within

I can never understand why anyone gives a cats cock end as to how many fans the away team bring.

Apart from it being nice to get a bit of extra cash in the clubs coffers.

So, cos i'm a Huddersfield fan and we didn't bring loads of fans last night i am not entitled to an opinion on what i saw and heard with my own eyes and ears ?

If we had brought 2,000 would my thought's be valid ?.

I think i had a point as it seems plenty of decent, honest, un-blinded Rovers fans actually agree with me.

I hope you aren't including me in that!

no chance honest and F.C fan in the same sentence no chance at all

The ref was rubbish for both sides last night. Lost count of how many strips your players got away with and how many forward passes we got away with. It happens week in, week out to every team. We deal with it.

Yes our 50 fans were probably frustrated too. We don't take much away from home but at least we don't cry at every desision. It was embarrassing last night.
Worse than the time your fans screamed forward a few seasons back when the ball wasn't even passed.
I wouldn't come to your ground in the future with the risk of a headache! The atmosphere stinks!

Your support however is fantastic.. Spend your time getting behind the lads and your place will be a scary place to come.

I've never claimed to have not blamed or complained about refereeing performances, I'm talking about your club...Chairman/Coach/Fans having this issue with them which causes them to be booed and jeered even while doing their warm ups, your fans had decided way before that game started last night that you were going to be hammered by the ref and made it quite clear that he was going to 'get it' from your fans if he didn't give a decision your way whenever the fans decided they wanted one.

We've all slated ref's at games before but i've never ever seen a crowd do it before he's actually done anything bad....even the radio station after the game had the victim thing going on and were almost begging Sandercock and the players they interviewed to gripe about the ref.

Last time he was at the ground he received a standing ovation and that did us no good, so it doesn't seem to matter whether we boo him or not!

don't do anything then.....just encourage your players !!

Another whining get on Humberside now, with selective memory problems. He's moaning about why the video ref wasn't consulted for the Gardner in touch issue. He (and the 2 dopey sods in the studio tbf) said this lead to a Huddersfield try, which is garbage. Broughton knocked-on on tackle 2 from the resulting scrum, so it had no effect on the score whatsover.
