Has it fizzled out now because it's rarely mentioned anymore? :deepthought:

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

Referees don't deserve respect the amount they've fucked up this season. Can't be expected to respect them when they're constantly getting things wrong.

But yes it has fizzled out. Completely.

They do a wonderful job. It's very difficult and they usually get things right, as do linesmen. They deserve respect.

I think that it needs to be made a global campaign as opposed to just in England and take a leaf out of Rugby's book whereby there are serious reprocussions for anyone showing dissent to a referee.

No. One or two mistakes in a game i can live with. But recently referees get so many decisions wrong in a game. SO many. Look at the Chelsea Barca game for an example.

I simply don't think it's fair that referees can get so many big decisions wrong and players are supposed to just accept it without a word. Buuuuuuuuuullshit...

Btw i understand it's a very difficult job, but if you're going to do it you need to do it well, and too many decisions are got wrong. I personally don't like the video technology idea as it would slow the game down far too much and that's only a bad thing for football. I don't even think it's a huge problem with the referees because althought they do get a lot wrong i understand it's a very hard job.

The issue i have is just that players are supposed to happily accept whatever decisions a referee makes without protest. There is an obvious line though.

Imagine it's the last minute. United are drawing 0-0 in the final game of the season and they NEED to win to win the title. A STONEWALL penalty is not given. You think players should just have to get on with things and happily accept the decision? No chance...

Whats the point in the protest? Has a referee ever changed his mind because of it?

It wouldn't make a difference but players in that situation CANNOT be expected not to react.

Happens in rugby all the time. Once its clamped down on, you wont even notice it missing.

Protesting against the referee does not do you any favours though. So why bother. He's not going to change his mind so just get the fvck on with the game.

Yeah i know that. But my issue is players are supposed to carry on like they don't care. I just don't think people can expect footballers not to react at all.
