The ref was dire for both sides, not sure it was a penalty you better side in the first half, second fairly even again you look decent going forward, you pass it better and faster than us, no doubt see you next season.
Two ugly goals from Riis, three points, that will do for me

The ref was bad for both sides but you got the nod with the penalty that killed us off thanks to Windass being about at lethal as mother Hubbard !
Well Bristol have won so that's 1 place down ..but 2 easy peasy home fed coming up for us lol !!! He's going to have to devise a plan to score 3 in the first 10 minutes of both games because either derby or Millwall will hang on if they get the first goal !
Swansea winning as well ...looking like a bad day at the office

Absolute state of these officials, week after week.
Three days to come up with something and rotate the squad. Hopefully, Iorfa isn't even making the bench.
Another loss and we begin to plummet.
We all know what the problems are. I think we've rehashed it a dozen times by now.
If we don't utilise this transfer window for options the second half of the season will be arduous.
RE: PNE v The Owls SBC Match Thread - Imre varadi - 29-12-2024
Problem is any team relying on this next transfer window are only onto a 50/50 toss of a coin if you get it right or not ! You can't really shuve money into this particular window ! Loans are the best way and yet again learn from you're mistakes of the past 20 years of the summer transfer windows and get players in early so they gel ! Not DRs fault though this season as he did get in as many as he could early ...just gambled on the ugbo transfer coming in late thinking he would be back home and firing straight away ! Although Rohl changed the system so it is in a way his fault interialy Ugbo the main striker!
Windass is t and never was a striker ! He's a good goal scoring cameo midfielder ! Smith has reverted back to being smith he just hit a purple patch that's all ! Lowe is bench fodder at best and Paterson isn't the man you look too for goals either ! Cadz is still learning although I do have him down as an out and out striker that will score strikers goals if you spare him too many games and use him wisely ! Gregory was the only true number 9 we had but off course he's coming to an end ! Dr doesn't seem to think much of McNeil ? So I'd safely say we've gone full circle after having 10 thousand strikers a few seasons ago we've now not got one that you can rely on ffs .
It's going to get be the biggest bombshell ever as well if Southampton call back Charles because he's kept the midfield stuck together like glue !
Sticky plaster time
Center back with experience who isn't expected to play like Maradona .
Left back loan because there all shit at left back
Midfielder if charles gets called back ?
Striker free transfer foreigner and get Cadz back .
That's my pick of a sticky plaster at the minute !

Dr has gone full on attack in today's interview saying it's the same players making the mistakes ..he's lost the plot a little more today in a good way ! I don't expect Johnson starting next week irofa we will never know because he's injured but Im hoping the transfer window will serve more for getting rid of players than actually trying to resolve the dreams of some 15 year old on x wanting us to sign Messi to play with this dogshit !
RE: PNE v The Owls SBC Match Thread - Statesideowl - 30-12-2024
It's unacceptable, especially to someone of Rohl's calibre. These are schoolboy errors.
Against Boro their attacker managed to poke it in with three Wednesday defenders stood around him. Preston essentially did exactly the same thing as Riis poked it in with two Wednesday players just stood there like dick heads. I wasn't impressed with Chalobah either.
Our defence fall for the same set pieces. The header from the back post across goal. It seems to bewilder this lot and leave them dumbstruck, just ball watching. The opposition always see to want it more than our defenders. I'm pretty sure our opposition coaches are aware and exploit this weakness. You can visibly see it during games, same with teams that press us high knowing we play out from the back.
This lot are demanding professional wages whilst producing amateur goods.
It isn't the losing matches or conceding goals that upsets me it's the manner in which we go about it.
It now feels like ten years we've been trying to shore up the defence, to no avail
The penalty wasn't a penalty. It should've been a FK on the edge of the box at best.
Very clumsy by Iorfa but for the Ref to cave in the manner he did for the home supporters was fking pathetic.
That is now the second or third penalty given against us that was either ridiculously soft or simply not a penalty. It shouldn't be normalised.
I'm sure the competency of match officials being in such great decline is nothing to scrutinise at all either. Nothing to see here.
RE: PNE v The Owls SBC Match Thread - Imre varadi - 30-12-2024
After watching the highlights I thought the penalty was ridiculously harsh no way in a month of Sundays will we ever get one like that!
Also I bit harsh on Johnson the goal but this is the new game pep has installed on us ..a wingback the smallest on the field having to defend a cross on the back post where as years ago nobody in there right mind would have asked him to do this ! Infact he'd have got trampled allover by a center back if he dared !
But I get Johnson is way out of form and does have that look of he doesn't care along with going missing completely in games more than a hundred times !
RE: PNE v The Owls SBC Match Thread - Statesideowl - 30-12-2024
It's another game changing decision by the referee. The influencing is getting out of control now. Halfway through the season and we've been on the receiving end of several BS calls.
The same goes for the DEI hire (Sam Allison) who officiated our games against Watford and Stoke. Giving penalties against us in both. Two of which were BS soft pens. It's becoming so commonplace and as I expected people are casually accepting it!
Most of these officials aren't fit for purpose the rest are corrupt little cheaters. Cootes is a nice example, he got very careless.
We stopped talking about him very quickly.
Nothing more British than eating shite and saying "Thank you" is there?
Uriah Rennie probably needs to dust his boots off.
It turns out that yesterday's clown official, who was fastracked to his position is the son of a former FA official, Jarnail Singh.
Yesterday's clown was the first south Asian referee to officiate in the EPL.
Glad we're ticking all those diversity boxes!
