       I do despair, if they are unable to do the basics right what
       hope is there.
       A typical away team performance when 1 up. Waste time, What did
       James do? absolutely nothing. To add just 4 minutes in the 2nd
       half was truly shocking. It should have been at least 8, and how
       he didn't issue any yellow cards for time wasting is so poor.
       Standing on the half way line just waving your arm isn't good
       enough.

       It’s like that with a lot of away teams and then refs. They
       don’t care. Read my reports - they all follow the same pattern.
       They don’t add the time on anymore (shock)

       Was at the game.
       Overall he refereed the game very well, but fully agree that the
       time added was slightly wrong.
       The GK was holding the ball 15 seconds plus every time, we know
       that indirect free kicks are never given, but until a referee
       has the balls to penalise it, it then it will never change.  He
       definitely had opportunity to give a Yellow card for time
       wasting on numerous occasions at goal kicks and throws,
       especially as he was seen warning then plenty of times, one
       early on may have made a difference.
       But as it happens 4 mins added was perfect 😂
