I mean to be fair, these highlights, or at least our ones, should just be titled Crowley vs Barrow. Could have had 3 great assists, had we been able to finish one easy chance (Gilbey should have left the rebound off the post for Hogan to tap in his second goal) and that offside header from Hogan was also marginal.

He was the best player on the pitch last night.

But I thought there was an agenda and it was never a red?

I mean it should never have been given a red but was all about the threshold to overturn it plus the risk of them tagging an extra game on. Wouldn’t have thought that needed an explanation but here we are.

I personally have never said there is an agenda against us for one and it was never a red card in a million years (as virtually everyone on here agrees) but likely wouldn't have been over turned.

Put it this way the Crewe one was ridiculous but wouldn't be shocked if it was upheld.

Yeah, both incidents are never red cards in a million years but unless you've got Premier League levels of revenue, the FA don't give a shit. They'll just accept some convoluted argument from the referee as to why it was a red. They'll probably not even watch the incident.

In my opinion, there needs to be an independent body to decide on these things as the ref is always going to be protected.

And on the agenda against us. I believe I mentioned in the heat of the moment that there must be an agenda against us, because at the time I was incredulous as to why we are constantly on the end of poor, game changing decisions, with very little coming the other way.

For the record, there's no conspiracy against us. We've just had the worst luck this season with officials. As bad as I can remember. Even on Saturday, the build up to Swindons 3rd goal was created by Tolaj being flagged offside when put through...he was at least a yard onside. We probably score from that situation but then Swindon boot the free kick up and score from it.

We've had 1 penalty this season. Most other teams have had at least 2. Notts have had 6! We've had players sent off against us but usually when the game is already won.

Just feels like we're really not getting the rub of the green this season at all.

Makes it stop! Please make it stop!

For the record???? Nobody else needs telling that there is no agenda, no conspiracy, no vendetta. As you said yourself the FA don't give a shit.
