They suggest that the ref was a 'homer' with some of his decisions....

Accused us a feigning injuries to stop them controlling the game....

Not impressed with their Man Utd loanee who was substituted....

What a joke of a fans forum....

The ref did give us a couple of decisions incorrectly but gave at least as many to them. Hilarious that they think he favoured us - I wonder what they’d be saying if he’d given us a dodgy penalty and affected the game?

And yes they seemed to think that Faz went down to waste time even though he immediately limped off injured to put an ice pack on his knee

We literally never feign injury to waste time and sometimes I feel that we should… maybe if we dived and shithoused like Bolton and other teams do then we’d have more points…

Good ref today. Generally let the game flow and didn't give soft free kicks etc. Lost count the number of times Bolton players rolled on the floor injured only to get straight up when the game played on

Exactly! That's probably why the Horwich fans are moaning, they expect refs to give them free kicks for diving and rolling around on the floor, so they think the ref is a 'homer' when he doesn't give them an Oscar. Their lads who rolled on the floor, then jumped up and sprinted back in to position when they didn't get a free kick should actually get a yellow card. Imagine watching that every week?

Football fans you have to love them..

each clubs fans are the same and to be fair pretty funny to read comments, such as "our players never feign injury", yes they do and if you think about it for a second it is one of the key things in football to hate, "we never" time waste and "never exaggerate contact" they all do. Watch a game of Rugby either code and then compare how easy footballers play act.

Did not see the game as had a couple of morning meetings on Saturday.

Fans forums are generally locations to moan and gripe, remember the sack Adams pages this season

The forum you mention is one I tend to avoid, actually to be fair I am on here more than any Wanderers forums as I prefer your negativity to our own... No offence.

Damned by faint praise!

I wonder if they are discussing the fan that was arrested for racist abuse after the match?

Yes, and where’s the witch hunt from the national press over this? It should get just as much attention as the ‘Evatt incident’. We get splashed over the press and criticised by pundits on telly for an unproven and dubious allegation whilst this goes almost unnoticed

[Wild Bill]

Which club did the alleged racist support?

[Catte]

Not aware of a big following for the Wanderers on Merseyside.. Could be but who knows, think the article is reasonably badly written as to leave everybody wondering but aware that it was an early kick off after last seasons nonsense.

If he is indeed a Wanderer the club will issue a banning order.

All clubs have to get smarter on this, to get these Herbert's away from the game, Far too easy to get a ticket at most League 1 & 2 grounds (no aspersions being cast here) and fully aware there is a cost element but it is time clubs joined in to get this stopped.

Hopefully the steward is not adversely affected.

I agree, but I think the issue here is the double standard. Morecambe FC were dragged through the mud, including a commentator on TV saying he couldn't understand why any black player would play for Morecambe. There was never any apology, and, more to the point, the FA never took action after your manager lied, in order to take his players off the pitch to regroup (and rest). His lies were taken at face value by the media, and a Morecambe fan was publicly accused of racism. I wonder if the same commentator will now be saying that he doesn't understand why any black player would want to play for Bolton? My guess is, he won't.
