Of course it matters, refereeing has been shocking in this country for years now and it’s getting worse, an investigation needs to happen into the standard of refereeing. This is just the tip of the iceberg and has robbed the rightful winners of a league title

Well that will not happen. The photo on Scunthorpe's own website does not show it was conclusively the wrong decision. The referee has to make a snap decision based on the evidence in front of him, in his view he made the correct decision. He is not going to a spend a lot  of time scrutinising his decision and I do not know any referee who has changed a decision once made and it does not matter how many times the manager gets on the phone.

They can't even get the correct use of the apostrophe.

From the Edinburgh website:

"Yet another change has been forced upon the Monarchs for our final Scottish Cup meeting on Friday as Michael Palm Toft, after riding well in Scunthorpe's brave Playoff Final performance, suffered an injury following the Superheat"

Find Riding Gear

 

Elsewhere on the same website:
"....replacing the previously announced Michael Palm Toft, who was involved in a post-race incident after Scunthorpe's contentious Super Heat loss in the Championship play-off final at Poole last night"

Anyone know what happened to MPT?

He came round for lap of honour like Josh did and after they eventually got their medals saw him walking back to changing rooms. I remember, as Poole fans appauded him when he was on his way there. Looked fine to me.

Well the ref changed his mind when Bowes won his race and overturned the result because of tyre warming,that was proved after the heat...my gripe is last week when Cairns admitted tyre warming and the ref refusing to use replays, its the grand final ffs,

And then the ref looked at it later on and apologised to Howe for making a mistake. I don't understand why they don't use replays, only takes a min.
