The constant moaning about referees which fans of all League 2 teams do, and the cheating by players of all teams iin League 2 is boring. If players stopped the diving at the slightest touch it would make the game a lot easier to referee. Fans moan if all decisions don't go their way.
I see fans winding themselves up, shouting that the ref had lost, when it actually the fans the have lost control of themselves.
I just want to watch a game of football without all this rubbish.
My thoughts exactly. Unfortunately, much though I like Hylton's quality as a player, he's in the Danny Rose mold when it comes to diving around and cheating. Some of our "game management" tactics were pretty painful to watch on Saturday, but it's the same every week with all teams. We see less and less football and more and more deliberate time-wasting. It would help of course if referees actually made an effort to stamp it out, by booking players more quickly, rather than issuing repeated warnings, by which time control has been lost.
The referee was weak on Saturday, just like the Colchester one, blowing up for a foul whever anyone fell over and offering repeated warnings to some players about challenges or gamesmanship, but not taking any action. However, I don't think Grimsby can have too many complaints, as I felt most decisions went their way.
