Re: Tonights game
My theory is this.
At Wednesday, Barnsley, Ipswich, Derby, Bolton, even Plymouth, in front of crowds ten times that at Stanley, a weak ref would think twice about showing such outright bias against the home team.
But this might leave them open to being accused of being ‘homers’ by their assessors.
So, when they come to Stanley (and, who knows, maybe the likes of Morecambe) weak refs go out their way to give yellow cards to one team. And that way they can claim to the assessors that, look, I’m no ‘homer’.
If I recall correctly, Homer was reputedly blind. Just like refs at Stanley.
