Friday’s ref is the awful Andy Madley.

Tonight’s officials:
Reading v Brentford (20:00)
TOM NIELD
Sam Lewis and Hugh Gilroy
Fourth Official: Samuel Allison
Thanks.

Nield is OK.

Madley can be decent - apparently but never for us

I cannot believe they are still going frame by frame to guess the "kick point".

My god! They even checked to see if Ezon touched the ball. WTF!!!!!

Why hasn't Owen asked him when the 20 refs in Stockley Park intervened. And Why hasn't he asked why they have been stood down this weekend?

OMG Webb has to go. Didn't support Foden red card whereas his VAR did but says VAR cannot intervene to downgrade a red card,

Save me from this f***ing idiot please.

"I can't tell if that's going wide or not", It was lucky if it hit the corner flag

WHO ARE THESE IDIOTS???

Needless to say that there was no analysis on the decision to not give Schade a stonewall penalty.

The ref last night made some very odd decisions. Disallowing their goal for a high boot was very harsh, our goal was even more of an odd decision to chalk off and then blows when Thiago is clean through

Thiago was offside which seemed correct. However the two disallowed goals were incorrect, none of our players even appealed for high boot and he's nowhere near connecting with our players when he makes contact. Likewise Schuster heads it cleanly in and then his follow through catches the back of the Reading players head which he can do nothing about.

IT was in our half.

Oh c'mon mate.... the Reading player only had eyes on the ball with a view to scoring...he wasnt interested in kicking Sangares head....imo the game of football is becoming increasingly sanitised...and although VAR wasnt involved last night...as KA alludes to in his interview...it is hugely impacting on refereeing decisions and their mindset across all of football... from grass roots upwards.

I agree with you but that isn’t what the referee needs to consider.

Any player who puts their boot that high risks an indirect free kick against them. It’s always been that way.

Excellent ref in Man U v BHA game tonight. 👍
Farai Hallam
Ex Stevenage Player

Has he reffed us??
Yes, did our 2:2 home game vs Everton last season. From memory didn’t give the, what would have been soft, foul on Lewis-Potter in the NW corner from which Everton scored their first equaliser.
Discussion at the time was that Hallam is less inclined to give cheap free kicks and so it was frustrating how naive we were in trying to win them; like he was one of the typical Premier League refs.
