Robert Madley L2 Play-off Final Morecambe v Newport
DIR By: Boz
Date: May 31, 2021, 10:00 am
---------------------------------------------------------
A few incidents in the first half where Mr Madley has let things
go when perhaps intervention required;
Morecambe keeper goes to punch the ball clear and makes no
contact with the ball but does hit the Newport player, no
penalty given.
Handball by Morecambe player where the ball is then crossed into
the box, but nothing comes of it. AR was on the opposite side,
couldn't be sure what Mr Madley saw.
Two footed challenge by Newport's Sheehan in Morecambe half ,
winning the ball but taking out the player in the follow
through. Mr Madley plays on.

Good to see that he has lost his PL hat and is refereeing a
proper game of football instead of the sterile game which is
played at the elite level.

To have your whole season decided by a decision like that will
rankle for a long time

Sorry but that penalty decision is nothing short of a disgrace.
Looked like was in initially going to wave it away and then is
pressured into giving it. One it’s not even a foul and 2 it’s
outside the box.
Considering the penalty he didn’t give to Newport they can feel
very much aggrieved.
Deary me! :-[

The penalty Mr Madley did award appeared to be as a result of
contact outside the area and wasn't convinced at first glance
there was enough to justify any foul. I also felt the YC for
Newport's Demetriou seemed harsh two players seemed to be
jumping for the ball and contact made in the context of cards he
didn't issue elsewhere. Overall I'd agree with Charlieboy's
assessment and after the plaudits for his handling of the L1
semi-final definitely a step backwards today.

Sadly, this is the way the modern game has been going for a few
seasons with players 'feeling contact' and going down which is
exactly what happened with the penalty. Minimal contact which
was made just outside the box, however, I can understand how it
looked a foul from the referee's positioning which was behind
the players.
I think that Demetriou was cautioned for something he said
because the Morecambe player stayed down and Demetriou
definitely said something to the referee and that was when the
card was produced.
Newport will feel aggrieved, however, they missed chances to win
the game and Morecambe grabbed their opportunity when it was
presented.
League One teams will be able to go to the seaside in Lancashire
having thought that they had missed out with Blackpool's
promotion.

Dear me indeed. That was the sort of match defining, injustice
ridden performance that I thought we had seen the back of from
him 3 years ago.
He must have a soft spot for Morecambe as it was there he
started his comeback from exile. Would that his exile had been
as long as Newport's.

Just watching back highlights
Newport should've had a pen in first half
Multiple cases let go throughout game
Pen is a free kick
I'd suggest going to Andy for some help Bobby

Well if that game was intended as a test to see if he is worthy
of promotion to SG2 it was pretty conclusive - not good enough
by a country mile. Very poor, random performance.
It will be an injustice if he does get the nod bit I very much
suspect that the powers that be have already made up their minds
and sadly we will see this overrated individual in SG2 next
season. 🤬
