How was Kayden not given a penalty?

Another stonewall penalty denied, which could have won us the game.
But how & why were they given theirs?
Must be the softest penalty award ever!

Who'd be a ref, eh?

To me looking at that the sending off was right, wasn't sure oer the notts penalty, jacko should certainly have had one.

still a penalty as one of our lads charged into the back of one of theirs in the box. soft maybe but did kayden go down to easy with the push. penalty for me anyway as contact was there. just going off the highlights which was not the refs view.

that is the problem. being a referee its all about the angle you see an incident. have had lino,s flagging for stuff i thought was ok but they had a better angle to view the incident. at referee society meetings we discuss incidents with camara angles at nearer pitch level about why or why not some offence has been committed. not trying to stick up for carl boyeson but there are a lot worse than him around.

I agree that just clearly demonstrates the Low standard the lower divisions get to me.

try a conference north game. know some leave a lot to be desired at our level but these coming up with all the referee acadamies for young refs are truly awful. may know the laws inside out, are very fit but have no feeling for a game whatsoever. even our mate kettle would look competant down there.

I was referring to the 4 divisons, but that demonstrates it continues down.

One game One set of rules, why do so many people see the same thing so differently.

Is your question rhetorical or do you seek an answer ?.

1. They're looking from different places.
2. They're looking through differently-tinted glasses.
3. They probably don't know the rules anyway.
4. Or the latest instructions for interpreting them.

But apart from that, I simply can't understand why there are ever any arguments.
