The concessions behind The Nordecke have been sub-par throughout the season. Food running out, orders wrong, soda streams and ice not working, etc., etc.
You know, it’s funny.*. I’m not a ref, but my understanding is that usually, when both teams are mad at you, you’ve done a pretty decent job—at least of staying neutral. In this case, both sides are p!ssed at Unkel Ted because he did a TERRIBLE job. *figuratively. ‘Cos tonights draw was literally NOT funny.
Apart from the Cucho non-penalty and the way he handled the last play, I thought Unkel actually had a pretty decent match. The people I saw complaining about refereeing tonight were the same people I see complaining about refereeing every f****ng week, so that's usually a sign that it's at least OK.
Do you mean “Shoot, Rossi,” as in take a shot on goal, or do you mean “Shoot Rossi,” as in assault with a deadly weapon because he isn’t living up to expectations? Punctuation is important.
Make sure you communicate that to your ticket rep / post game survey. Every time you have an issue bang that drum.
In retrospect, he had an okay match for an official named Ted Unkel. Wish he was worse so I can just blame him for the tie and to excuse my preemptive yelling and heckling that I gave him
A Good game for Unkel is missing a blanket penalty, and tackling a Crew Player himself to stop a counter attack? Yah ok, I guess you are right.
At least he didn't call back a crew goal for a foul he committed or send the wrong guy off who was 20 yards away. (Things that he's actually done to the crew in the past 8 years.) He really does like getting into the middle of the play except when he doesn't.
To be fair he should have clearly called it right away. The call looked legit but the way he called it was odd.
Still feels like the refs think persistent infringement is no longer in the laws. I also repeated am seeing the opposing teams infringing on Shulte shadowing him from getting the ball back in play. Maybe my understanding that this isn't allowed is wrong?
JRR had a clear header in the last moments. We need Ramirez back really badly. We’re gonna miss these lost points when it comes to playoff seeding time.
We are banged up battling congestion with key players like Matan & Ramirez not 90 fit or even contributing. We get healthy and add some more talent we will be more than fine.
And a CU-NT hair away from losing the game. Both teams missed opportunities. We definitely were better in second half with Sands out but JRR was one of those who squandered some good opportunities but he certainly wasn’t the only one. The disappointment was in allowing 2 goals. We have to do better. Would help if we had more quality defenders.
What makes you think he’d be out there instead of JRR? Seems to me that Nancy has JRR ahead of Ramirez on the attacking 3 depth chart.
