Referee rating - marks out of ten

Sat Apr 11, 2026 1:54 pm

I thought he was wildly inconsistent.

Sometimes let the game flow but other times was giving a free kick for the softest foul.

5 from me.

A 4 from me - he got a lot of decisions wrong and so did the linesmen.

I agree about the consistency; he guessed all the way through the game. Turnbull slipped and got the free kick, got up laughing, episodes like that all game for both teams

I went for 3/10

Absolutely shocking. Can’t work out who was the worse - today’s or the one in charge at home to Stockport.

Honestly didn't see any problems with the ref, thought he was very good for league one

Another very poor ref. I wonder how much impact the shite refs have in the league over a season?

A couple of people have given this Herbert 10! A 4 from me. I think the 10 ratings must be beer / win goggles talking

Couldn't wait to blow whistle for any contact. Some decisions were pathetically soft. Linesman first half missed an offside where player was at least 5 yards off, Officials have been dire this season. I gave him 4.

I avoid criticising Ref's as it is a thankless job that I wouldn't do, in a game where extremely rich people throw themselves around , cheat , fain injury and act like small brats .

Yesterday however was appalling refree performance, he seemed to have a big down on Wilock.

He could have costed us a result.

Someone gives the ref a 10 every week no matter how bad they've been.

I gave him a 4

4 from me… some very strange calls and ignores today, very inconsistent but managed to let the game flow. It’s about time the EFL and PGMOL got together and worked out a better set of rules or reviews of refs in the UK leagues

Right at the end of the game we had a corner.

Swung in to the back post with none of our players near the ball.

Their keeper punched it and clattered into one of his own players.

The tw*t blows his whistle and gave Bolton a free kick. :lol:

Utterly inept - like 95% of referees we've had this season.
