THE CONCRETE ROUNDABOUT (TCR)

I once watched Michael Ballack and Didier Drogba, two of the best players in Europe, chase a referee down, call him a disgrace on television and scream abuse at him in fury after a dismal performance against Barcelona.

They're human. Same as Lewington. Same as us. In an ideal world, yeah he would heartless get over it immediately. In the real world, i get it. Respect is earned. And referees making dismal decisions that could be season and thus career defining - upsetting.
I see both sides but Dean spoke for most of us that night

I understand Lewie’s emotions, but football has to do something about the continual disrespect for officials.

Yeah I totally agree.

Starts by making referees better.

And how do you propose that? I mean if we gave them tools to assist them in their jobs for example goal line tech Tuesday would never have happened we would have more than likely have 11 men on the pitch and more than likely 2 more points than what we do now. They are not professional in our slum of a league so I guess most of them do this around a full time job. They are in the Prem and Championship, but don't have to be in leagues 1 and 2 so why do they care if they make a wrong decision, not like they are going to be signing on the next day. As I have said over and over goal line tech is the only answer to problems like this. There is so much money in football that the EFL could assist with funding. But they won't. They wouldn't dare do anything that would benefit the game.

Called him a cheating then a C word that my late mother would hate me to say!

By this logic - hasn't Lewie cocked up so the comments from Dons50 and DadofaDon are justified.

Point is, the referee is there, there is a campaign to show refs respect, our captain didnt. Rightly or wrongly.

And Lewie got punished for it, rightly so, I've never been defending Lewie and claiming that he didn't deserve the red, only that I don't blame him whatsoever.

There's a distinct lack of respect for referees because for the most part, they're shite and they mess up a lot. It's an endless cycle unfortunately.

They are shite cause they are literally doing this as a 2nd job in our league. They are not pros like the Prem and Champ refs. If you were doing this for a pittance would you be that bothered if you were not doing great? Oh no I will have to go ref a national league north/south game for a month or so. Or I could just quit altogether because I don't want some angry ginger tosser calling me a Ladybit when all I get is travel expenses and maybe money towards a meal

Dare I say 'It's over now. Let's move on'?
