I'd genuinely like to believe that whoever assess him has a quiet word.

The first red was nailed on, but he lost control. I didn't think that you could be offside in your own half. The ball goes out from a Posh player. He gives them the throw, then books one of ours for pointing that out, and you could go on.

I fully realise that refs at this level won't be world class, but he just couldn't manage.

You can't be. End of.

Taylor should have got a red for throwing his arm back at Aneke’s head.

But he sort of evened up the fouls, ignored too many Posh fouls first half, then gave us one or two dodgy ones second. And he was also very lenient on our time wasting, we were due a few yellows for that, and nine minutes was probably less than it should have been.

As I said elsewhere, I left the ground grateful for his performance, because as a result I’ve just had one of my greatest-ever experiences watching the Dons... The Posh Nine.

It was like Rorke’s Drift.

Goal Rush commentary totally missing the point about the Shakey Breakspears performance. It wasn't the red cards that made him the pantomime villain but the constant stream of bad decisions throughout the game. But, as has been said, he wrote the script for one of the most memorable games at SMK.

In the refs defence, I've seen him ref twice this year and we've won both! Also yesterday having remembered which game he reffed before I put money on a red which paid for my pie!

The worst decision wasn’t the Reds. It was not giving a penalty when Chuks was hauled down.

No, it was giving Agard offside in his own half!

This.

Seen a lot of comments about this...

From what I saw at the time, Agard started a run, realised he was offside and then checked back into our half to receive the ball. My understanding of the rules is that he was rightfully flagged offside.

Agard was definitely offside when the ball was played. He was only a yard or two inside the Posh half before he checked back but it was the right call.

It was right in front of me and I thought the same, so I wasn’t surprised by the decision. Then the lino gave the indication that he’d checked back.

Also, the free kick was taken from about two feet inside the Borough half, not our half as has been reported somewhere.
