@KnaresboroughFC @PickeringTownFC @myringsestate @WestRidingFA @NCEL educate your officials on floodlight failure guidelines to prevent instances like this happening again 👍

@Yorkshire_Steve @_benoliver7 @KnaresboroughFC As per comment, we took accountability as players for the result of the game. Poor officiated also largely contributed. Evident.

I’m the first to compliment directly a good officiating display!

Saturdays a new game day 😃

2/2

[Simon Parkes @simon284]

3 legitimate goals ruled out…

Linesman stating to the man in the middle it’s clearly a second yellow 🤨

We didn’t deserve to win the game, following these key moments..

But… It’s the same every week and sadly continually on the receiving end!

@KnaresboroughFC

[Simon Parkes @simon284]

@Yorkshire_Steve @_benoliver7 @KnaresboroughFC Example of how a large proportion of officials at this level don’t give players or management the time of day to explain a decision nor accept that sometimes they may have got it wrong.

Respect works both ways and the cooling off period bridges any opportunity of that.

1/2

[Simon Parkes @simon284]

@_benoliver7 @KnaresboroughFC Well done on the win. Capitalised on some poor defending by us 2nd half well.

Nothing wrong with highlighting how poor decisions can just the same have a BIG impact on the outcome of the game.

We take accountability, just the same as the officials should…. It’s far too often

[Simon Parkes @simon284]

@gedmaloney @KnaresboroughFC Another frustrating one mate 😬

Superb serviceman to the club and some quality memories playing and managing this man!

They say as a manager you can’t have mates in the changing room, which is mostly accurate…however footy can provide top friendships that last a lifetime!

Go smash it at your new home 🍻⚽️

Incredibly proud of this team! 210 minutes we went toe to toe with an ambitious high league opposition and had plenty of good opportunities to put the tie to bed ourselves.

Sadly wasn’t meant to be… That’s the bar set for the rest of the season 📈

@CharlieMarshy7 That’s a cracker 😂

[Simon Parkes @simon284]

You won’t find a more committed and beautiful soul in non league! Never wants the lime light and any form of recognition, which makes you that bit more special!! What you do for me and the boys never goes unnoticed ❤️

Clare Rudzinski gets my vote 👏
