[Lord Didsbury]

I strongly disagree with Andy on this. Referee standards have improved over the years but they are human. They will make mistakes whether they are paid silly money or trained more.

Players know the rules - arguing with the ref is futile and out of order. If I was surrounded by angry people after every mistake I made my nerves would be shot to ribbons.

I'd also bet refs would perform better if they knew they wouldn't be hounded if they got something wrong.
