Do we think these are critical enough for a touchline ban/fine?

Not as critical as the Supporters Association who suggested that Wrexham had paid the ref with an all expenses holiday…….not very clever in my eyes as the Official Supporters Group.


Pretty sure they speak for most of us on that one!

I wonder if we ever get to the day when people over the age of 10 stop making comments about refs being paid due to the odd bad decision.

No. As Danny Baker always said, all refs are bent. 8-)

Agreed.....I think for most people they are being numerous with it but there may well be a small number of believers!

I think MW's "momentum" comment carries a little more subtlety and at times it can be tempting to believe in that happening

At what point does he ever suggest match fixing?


He implied that Wrexham recently had valid goals disallowed against them - it wasn't especially subtle! Like saying sorry not sorry.


That’s fact though, they did have valid goals against them ruled out. You can’t ban/fine someone for speaking factually.

At no point has he claimed match fixing.


Another ‘fortuitous’ decision for Wrexham yesterday. Seems like they are getting all the assistance they need to progress.

Yes, it definitely feels like that script has already been written by Ryan and Netflix or whatever. In my opinion, our hopes rest on Mansfield bottling it again.
