night.

It didn't happen then.
I didn't think so but you could have admitted it.

I don't get the personal insults to FC fans from this joker, yes Rovers were hard done to but that's not our fault. FC played to the whistle & didn't give in, the 1 at fault is the VR plain & simple.

Lighten-up.
Awful decision.

Again nobody's arguing with you.

Look at the point I highlighted, last year did anyone bemoan the applauding Ganson decision? Or didn't that matter because is wasn't in you're bigger picture?

Did a similar thing happen in one of Australia's biggest games last year? Did the game collapse?

Night.

He needs to come on TV and say why he gave the try. It makes our game look stupid.

Best team won, get over it

There is no bigger picture. It was a mistake. VR's make mistakes regularly IMO, as do players, coaches, referees, touch judges and in goal referees. This one is no different to any other except this one has gone against your team

eden is nothing to be proud of, lol

You are again missing the point.
Last year was on the fly this year he had Christ knows how many views of it.
If you can't see the fundamental difference between this 2 situations then yes you are correct.
Night.

Go and pop on the VT and see what fans from teams who are not thinking 'yippee we got one' are saying.
Like I said FC fans can't see last it.

Agree.

didnt see/hear sandercock post match any links or any run down of what was siad

"It's a tragedy. I'll be very disappointed if the video referee doesn't come out and publicly apologise.
"We're devastated. It's blatantly offside and we can't understand it.
"I'm proud of the boys. To come within a whisker with the side we had today was pretty special.
"Sometimes in this great game you don't get what you deserve and we didn't today."

Who cares what a few people on a social networking site say? I can absolutely guarantee that no one will stop following the game because a (video) referee made a poor call

Actually we [ican[/i see past it. Some of us are just beyond caring.

The officiating of RL in the UK is appalling and has been for the entire length of time I've been watching the game. That's around a quarter of a century. I've lost count of the number of times I've said that it would kill the game in the end. So far I've been wrong. Even more relevantly, if you check my posts when Ganson was announced as the new boss I was scathing in my criticism and predicted that things would go downhill.

But this decision is no worse than many other decisions Ganson has made over the years. Maybe the reason why some of us are not as exercised about it as you are is that we've seen it all before over many, many years. Cummins came out with some utter rubbish during his tenure after all.

Anyway - I read that the RFL are due to make a statement soon. If it includes the reasoning behind the decision then maybe we can have an informed discussion.

sandercock.what a plonker.

From Paul Cookes Twitter...


I was willing to give Ganson the benefit of the doubt, maybe he saw something we did not, but if this is true then it is unforgivable and once again makes our game a laughing stock to make such a basic error, the VR has as much time as needed to make his decision.

Not only on this occasion but in general I think that there is a fundamental flaw in the VR system as it is now in that it is still down to a single individual to judge the incident and if he makes an error then there is no one to correct it. Other sports that use judges use a panel, maybe we could have 3 VR's with a simple majority to decide an incident.

Apparently Jon Sharp has said that it was 'clearly a mistake'.

That should make his working relationship with Ganson interesting. How does he discipline the guy who shares responsibility for leading the officials with him?

quite true too

I actually did wonder that and dismissed it as too unlikely.

Oh dear.

Maybe it should have been a point each then. If only Billy had caught the ball .....

Like us last year, you put yourself in the position to have that decision given against you. Despite the pleas of better team lost, even without that shocking decision it would have been a draw and quite fair one at that.

Fact is we were very poor today, ŵe put so much ball down in the first half you should have been able to put many more points on us. We didn't get it together for the entire game. Hull as always like been the underdogs like against Warrington, we don't like been favourites as today proves, we panic and loose our flow.

Hull fans have got quite the claim for karma on this one. You lost, we won. Get over it.

mr ganson we love you
