🚨🐯 Official: Middlesbrough become the first club to lose both the Championship play-off semi-final AND final. History makers.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

😂😂😂 Go and appeal that Boro you bunch of wet wipes 😂😂😂

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

@ayesleft Suggest a little bit of bed time reading. The Laws of Football. That will help you work out why they were correctly not awarded a penalty.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

Couldn’t agree more. Where the hell is he supposed to put his arm. Absolute joke

Horrible UEFA handball penalty, exhibit #2332

T3 fitness test passed, back on the whistle next season it is. Dedicated AR days are done and dusted!!

[BroRefs @VoGReferees]

Many congratulations to all those who passed their T3 fitness test this evening. This was the final and 32nd lap. We are especially pleased that our members @stechongy & @NathanWaite2001 were successful. Well done all 👏⚽

Aston Villa blaming a refereeing decision for missing out on UCL next season. But of course loosing 4-1 to Spurs, 4-1 to Palace, 3-0 to both Chelsea and Newcastle and drawing twice with relegated Ipswich didn’t make any difference at all.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

@LeeTrundle10 @toprefgeorge I’ve already said it was all my call. Said that on the pitch and said it on here. We are clearly never going to agree on it. Not interested in a slanging match on here. I’ll happily discuss it openly with you face to face next time round.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

@LeeTrundle10 @toprefgeorge Ummm where did I pass the supposed mistake on? It was my call 100%, right or wrong. I was saying when the ball was clearly never that low, IF I said on the comms lower arm a very experienced referee would never take my word on it, and award the goal.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

@LeeTrundle10 @toprefgeorge And use a bit of common sense. Do you think a referee of that experience would take my input of lower arm when the ball didn’t drop that low until it hit the net. He would call me an idiot and award the goal.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

@LeeTrundle10 @toprefgeorge Maybe I was right maybe I was wrong. As I said yesterday if I was wrong I hold my hands up and apologise. But I don’t accept being called a liar on social media. Not once was lower arm mentioned.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

@LeeTrundle10 Didn’t say you mentioned my name. Comments about Cardiff were from team mates and other comments. And lower arm? I said it was your bicep. If I got it wrong I’ll hold my hands up. As I said we get one look at it, at full speed and have to make a split second decision.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

@DVSAgovuk Yeah ok…. Of course this will reduce waiting times. More likely increase the amount of no shows. Stop blaming instructors and sort your own house out

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

@SGalia29 Glad you enjoyed them, and hope it all went well. It’s nothing personal to you and your team. Just annoyed to be left off games this weekend when I’m out every week on Cymru South.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

@kardiffkev I just fancied a more polite rant than last time.

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

Shafted & Saints two words that seem to regularly go together. #SaintsFC

[Darren Hales @Ref_Daz87]

A proper cup tie. Credit to both teams it was a pleasure to be involved.

[Cambrian United FC @CamUtdMen]

About yesterday ….

What a cup game that was at the @MPGroupWales 3G

5 goals ✔️
Sending off ✔️
Plenty of chances missed and saves made at both ends ✔️
Last kick of the game chance to equalise ✔️

Happily we are into the next round of the Welsh Cup 🏆
