Good game, we got away with one but I think the Leeds fans moaning at the referee is a bit ridiculous given they scored after they got a penalty incorrectly given for a ball steal. I don’t doubt we probably got the rub of the green overall but the whinging has been dramatic to say the least.
What can you expect. The sky sports Wigan mafia were doing their damnedest to incite the coach and when he would not fall for it they just talked it up amongst themselves.
They won't be happy until a fan takes to the pitch and physically assaults a ref.
Was it a bad call, yes. Was it a match decider? No. Did saints get calls go against them? Yes. Will all teams get good and bad calls in future games? Yes.
Get used to it its sport. If you want to watch a rules based system go watch parliament TV. The select Committee sessions will fascinate you.
As always its the last decision that people remember, not the 100s of calls made before hand.
And the players are never at fault as much as the ref. Forget that they cocked up by releasing the ball over the line, gifting saints a tap on the 20 rather than a play the ball on the 10
