       Hmm, in January's game v Crewe he gave Alex a penalty that
       wasn't and was forced to overturn it by his assistant.
       Today he gave them another penalty that wasn't! It's even
       annoyed our laidback manager.
       Think it might be time for him to hang up his whistle on that
       showing.

       Just seen the Crewe penalty and it looked like a pretty poor
       decision.
       In worse news, James Adcock was only able to last for 20 minutes
       before being replaced by Ben Toner at Scunthorpe this afternoon.
       Desperately sad for him yet again

       As sad as it may be surely this must be the final curtain for
       James.

       Yep, clear dive and made even worse because Haines was in a good
       position to see it.

       One must applaud Adcock for trying so hard to make a come back
       after his injury but as many good referees have found ( I am
       thinking particularly of Michael Naylor ) there comes a point
       where you just have to listen to what your body is telling you
       and make the hardest of decisions. Let us hope that this is just
       a temporary blip for Adcock ( and this latest incident may of
       course be quite unrelated to his previous injury ) but it
       doesn't look good.
       i have seen Adcock referee live once after he came back from
       injury. He ran a pretty central channel, didn't go out wide much
       and appeared to he holding his sprints back considerably. It was
       a straightforward match to referee and he did absolutely fine
       but there will be very demanding matches where the referee
       really does have to be consistently in absolutely the right
       position to maintain control.

       Very sad about Adcock, but I don't think he can go on much
       longer.  Real shame as a few seasons ago, he looked destined for
       SG1 - I remember him taking control of a very feisty Yorkshire
       derby between Leeds and Sheffield Wednesday (which was usually
       given to a PL referee) and him putting in an excellent
       performance.

       As an ardent Crewe fan, I was totally flabbergasted at the 90th
       minute penalty award, and was more than a little relieved that
       Rochdale got a 98th minute equaliser. A really poor decision
       from Andy Haines, given (as has been pointed out) his
       positioning at the time.

       I agree (obviously). Overall I thought we just about edged the
       game, but we are in the relegation zone due to our own failings,
       not poor decisions, over the course of the season. I have
       noticed Haines seems to be getting worse, though, and I do see a
       lot of him!

       Co-incidentally Andy Haines was the last referee I saw live at
       Gresty Road, Crewe v Stevenage in L2 just before the first
       lockdown, and I thought he was OK that day.

       James Adcock came off after 19 minutes on Scunthorpe v Walsall
       game with Ben Toner taking over in the middle.
