Fack me, I'm all for being politically correct and saying the right things, but I wanted to remain quiet as I think highly of a bunch of the Poco guys and TM, I really do. I also think the ref was really harsh on Mitchell for what-ever reason, but that aside, the only shocking decision was not to abandon the game. It didn't help calm things down that Jacaboni and Wooldridge were getting stuck into anything and anyone that moved. Someone yelled at the ref that they were going to rip his head off and shove it up his ass. I loved the "you don't have the Fcuking balls to send me off” shout too. I'm pretty sure there was a jersey thrown at him as well after a foul was given.Yes it probably will. Supposedly there was a video showing the referee and his shocking decisions.
Hidden agenda or not, right or wrong decisions or not the "game" and some players behaviors (not all, some) was a complete joke from start to finish. Was it totally the refs fault? Not for me to decide. I'm only sorry I was apart of it and that, that many people came out to witness it.
TM was honest to us when he called Guinness and myself and explained his teams side of things and Poco's decision. I can respect that decision to investigate, but I don't like that we're involved obviously, but what can you do it's their call. I think labeling it sour grapes for the loss is wrong though.
