energyzone Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 McKenzie should be playing up top with someone else too feed off didn’t he score over 20 goals last season playing there in a team who ended up being relegated? Too many of the buffs players can’t control their tempers boylan maitland constantly getting booked for mouthing off when will they learn?I've yet to attend a Buffs match where Maitland hasn't been at least booked.Being a referee for us must be an impossible task because the two of them are simply unable to be spoken to.Boylan can be infuriating because he has the pace to beat 90% of defenders in this league but always times his runs wrongly.

The Ilford Drummer Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Really can't see what folk see in Maitland, average player with very poor discipline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with you that Tommy's discipline lets him down at times,bud,but he's better than an AVERAGE player! If you were to watch him every week, you'd see how good a player he is for Buffs! He's solid in either mid-field or in defence,if he's required to play at the back. He never shirks out of a tackle,& there's not much gets past him! From mid-field,he often 'chips in' with the odd goal or two,also. He scored a good goal against Beith,in the Scottish,& he's been excellent from the penalty spot so far this season,scoring 8 out of 9,in all competitions!

Don't think so,bud. I'm sure he's only missed the one pen,but you might be right. Hard to keep track when he's hittin' the back of the net with so many! Gary Fleming has taken Buffs' last couple of pens,though....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having stood behind the assistant there was only one offside decision out of about 10 that I disagreed with. He got the rest spot on.And even if the refereeing standard is bad - what on earth does he think he is going to achieve by shouting at the officials? How many times is he going to cost the club in fines and premature dismissals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

energyzone Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Am I right in thinking, that you want Tommy not to appeal for off sides?No you're not right at all.What I want Tommy to do is concentrate on defending the resultant free kick rather than spend 20 seconds berating the officials for his own team's mistake.There is no such thing as appealing an offside once the whistle goes. It's like appealing the full time whistle or the coin toss. It's not up for debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlowe Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I've thought about this long and hard and I keep rejecting solutions because they breach some ethical or legal code somehow. Referees and their assistants should be issued with stun guns and be permitted to use them on players and coaches at setting #2 for a Yellow card offence, and #8 for a Red and #10 for a second Red. Crime and Punishment students would surely agree that the current Penalties are insufficient to discourage offences so their severity must be elevated, till it hurts, even bleeds a little.
