i had someone on twitter mention that they liked how the ref allowed things to go which is fair enough, but at times there was clear fouls on notts players and he would not give them. it came across as very biased in the first half, i dont recall how many fouls they got but it does not take away from clear fouls not being rewarded. it was almost like he would not give notts any decisions, especially on kyle wootton who was heavily manhandled at times.
i would not say he cost notts the game, the defending did that and chicksen being awful.
but i do think he was poor giving advantages to the away team when at times words should have been had at the minimum.
i think rochdale played well, so good luck to them but both their goals come across as things we should do better with.
