I have waited until this morning before commenting on the game.
I am very disappointed we got nothing out of the game, I thought a draw was the right result. I am not an Atkinson fan, but the abuse he was getting from a couple of mouths in the West stand was unacceptable. Players make mistakes and he did, but to then rip the poor man to pieces for 70 minutes was out of order.
I thought for the first twenty minutes we had a very entertaining match. Spennymoor played some nice football, we struggled to cope in midfield. Both teams had chances, but Atkinson's mistake resulted in them scoring. Then Spennymoor changed their tactics. Diving, fouling, playing for time and cheating.
When I saw who the referee was my heart sunk. We have had him before and he gave us nothing. Well Mr Davis you did not disappoint. The person next to me said he is inept. I said "if a person is inept they are no good at their job, he is bias" He gave us nothing. He booked our players and let their players get away with the same thing. He bottled a sending off in the firsrt half, when their keeper handled outside the box( I would like to see the replay ). I would also like to see the penalty decision. Our players and the crowd that side seemed to be up in arms.
I would also like to mention the disgraceful display by Rob Ramshaw. On several occasions in the second half he made obscene gestures to the West stand fans. My friend had his little girl there, if it was a fan that did that, they would get a banning order.
I can take losing a game, but the way we lost it hurts. Or did I see the match in a bias way?
