The reffing standards are very poor today allowing Peterborough sports to hold and block pulling shirts . he has not once given anything for all of this going on . very poor standard referee.linos no better not giving anything.tough game.

The player holding onto Curry's shirt whilst travelling several feet down the touchline right in front of the linesman in the first half gave Peterborough the signal that they could pretty much get away with anything for much of the game. The player who got booked for pulling on Salkeld's shirt in the second half must have been shocked that such behaviour is outside the rules.

No, that Blake was far too recent, think more like late 70s!

The lino on the far side was horrific.

The ref could have given a penalty to P'boro in the first half. I thought it was touch and go and he made the right decision to go and have a chat with the linesman then place the free kick right on the edge of the box. I think because there was a bit of doubt he didn't give the penalty, which was good news.
