       Jeremy Simpson - Burnley v Reading
   DIR By: cwh
       Date: October 30, 2022, 12:23 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       In todays Observer it was noted that 'Ince rages at total joke
       referee' - it goes on to say Ince described Simpson as 'a
       joke,an absolutely total joke - I feel like I've been conned by
       the referee today and thats what makes me angry'
       It it likely that some kind of reprimand will made against Paul
       Ince - surely he cannot make these kind of remarks and get away
       with it

       Based on Klopp's punishment last week, I'd say he will almost
       certainly get away with it.

       For context, Reading denied a clear penalty (admitted by the
       Burnley manager) in the 92nd minute, Burnley score a 94th minute
       winner. IMO Ince's frustration is justified, there have been so
       many really bad decisions in the Championship this season, and
       it seems like there is no accountability for referees. Simpson
       is in my opinion one of the weakest SG2 referees, but seems to
       come back week after week. Hope the PGMOL changes will bring
       about some improvement, things cannot continue to go the way
       they currently area.

       Thank you for this - I must admit to not having checked out any
       circimtances - but being rather 'old fashioned' in my views  I
       just do not iike to hear these sort of comments  aired in public
       about anyone

       [/quote]based on the fact guardiola gets away with law breaking
       on the touchline persistently I'd suggest klopps punishment was
       proportional and Ince should get a warning.  Personally I'd
       rather see all managers wind their necks in and set a better
       example but with that not soon on the horizon it would good to
       see some consistent punishment from referees and the FA rather
       than inconsistent wrist slapping we currently see.

       .........unless they are true, which, given the referee was
       Simpson, cannot be ruled out.

       More context was that Ince failed to  mention the stonewall
       penalty that Burnley should also have had in the very early
       stages of the first half when Burnley's centre back was wrestled
       to the ground as a corner was coming across.
       Decisions/non-decisions happen every week in every game, surely
       Ince should be used to that. Perhaps he was doing a Jose by
       taking focus away from the fact that Reading have only picked up
       4 points from their last 6 games and have dropped from being in
       4th place and just 3 points behind the leaders. In two of  those
       last six matches he has blamed the referee for his plight.
       What puzzles me about that penalty incident is the fact that the
       AR was the nearest to the incident and did not react at all as
       far as I could see although the majority of Burnley fans thought
       that they had got away with a poor challenge.

       I wondered about the AR as well. However, JS was close to play
       and allowed play to continue and it may be that the AR thought
       better of waving his flag. Or maybe the 'comms' system was at
       work. It seemed that the Burnley defender got the wrong side of
       the Reading attacker and barged into his back. Whatever the
       circumstances, it was a very poor and game-changing decision by
       Jeremy and I can understand Ince's frustration.

       Disagree with Ince and Kompany (pun also intended) - I don't
       think this is a penalty at all :D. Attacker stops, changes his
       direction at the last second deliberately in order to generate a
       penalty, and falls over really easily/unnaturally. Look at how
       much the Reading players don't really appeal/feel they've been
       hard done by. Only when you see the slo-mos etc, "look there's
       contact!!", do you create a missed penalty there. It is a
       game-wide rather than Burnley-vs-Reading-specific issue, but as
       I've said before, the increase in television replays etc. has
       made 'the football community's' (including refs') foul
       recognition actually worse in the ≈40yrs, it's madness...
       EDIT: from what I've read, Ince's comments are in the
       passionate-acceptable range, I disagree with him, and surely
       better not to call the referee "a joke", but nothing stated was
       too unreasonable or beyond the pale IMO.

       This one was a quadrupal whammy for me.  Firstly I have a strong
       allegiance to Reading, who didn't only drop one point in
       stoppage time but potentially three, secondly because I hate to
       see a poor refereeing decision have such a strong contribution
       to the result of a match, thirdly because I spent ten minutes
       last weekend trying to tell a friend who supports Reading that
       Championship referees aren't as bad as he thinks and fourthly
       because I've stood up for Jeremy Simpson on this site before
       because I believe he sometimes has been harshly treated,
       I can't ever remember a decision before where both managers
       agree and so do both teams keyboard warriors. That has to say a
       lot.  I still maintain that Simpson has been fine in most games
       I've seen him referee but I think he and his AR will be
       disappointed when he watches this incident back.
