Football Italia http://www.football-italia.net/blogs/sw106.html Officials are under the spotlight again after a couple of controversial penalty decisions, but Steve Wilson wishes to explode a few referee myths First of all, let me explain, I am no friend of referees. They do their best but more often than not you leave a match lamenting decisions that have not gone the way of your team. And inconsistency…don’t get me started. One week the referee will penalise a certain encroachment while seven days later the next whistler will let the same crime go unpunished. However, you cannot eradicate human error, bad decisions are something we have to live with. I cannot explain why the official did not award Sampdoria either of the two Week 8 penalties they claim they should have had. I can though give a couple of reasons why the conspiracy that Doria President Riccardo Garrone alluded to in his post-match comments is not there. Due to Calciopoli you cannot definitively say that there is no refereeing secret agenda, but we have to move on from 2006 and look for other answers when errors are seemingly made. The big clubs get more penalties. Juventus, Inter and Milan will always get more penalties from refs out of favouritism. Could that be the reason? Or maybe it is because teams like the big three spend more time attacking. A minnow against a giant is always going to be a battle for the small club and they will absorb more attacks and pressure. Surely the more that you are in an opponents box increases the chances that eventually a mistimed tackle or handball will occur? If a big club is losing the referee will add on more additional minutes, giving them a bit more time to score, but if they are winning the extra time is much less. A helping hand from the man in the middle? Or perhaps it is because once a provincial outfit has the lead over a big city rival they are more prone to time waste and run the clock down? If they are losing though they will want to keep the game flowing – thus less time to be added on at 90 minutes. Top teams will always get more big decisions at home. Well that argument probably is true but it is hardly surprising really, and is it cheating or human nature? It should not be the case but it is only natural that some officials will be slightly swayed by hearing 60,000 voices at San Siro appealing for a penalty. When an opponent then goes down of course the noise from the fans will be quieter – as the away support is far smaller – and thus less likely to influence his call. “We’re missing four points and it’s a crescendo of incidents going against us. Since we’ve been top of the table, perhaps we are irritating someone,” complained Garrone after the 1-1 draw with Lazio. With no disrespect to Samp, I’d love to see them go all the way, they do not have the squad and experience to match Inter or Juve. Eventually their spell at the top was going to falter, to blame their slip from the summit purely on referees is slightly blinkered. It is how the Blucerchiati respond going forward rather than how they look back on games that have gone that will decide if they are to become a side who put themselves in positions to ‘earn’ favours from referees. I am not completely ruling out that some refs may favour certain sides. However, next time you scream at the referee just bear in mind the potential other reasons aside from him being a cheat. ----------------------------- Goal.com http://tinyurl.com/ygyjuot We Can Only Blame Ourselves For The Loss To AC Milan - Roma Winger Stefano Guberti While they exposed the Rossoneri's problems, the Giallorossi should have had the game sewn up... Roma midfielder Stefano Guberti has admitted that, while the Giallorossi can complain about the referee, they should have won their game against Milan by the half-time whistle. The Lupi had chances to extend the lead, with Mirko Vucinic and Jeremy Menez passing up opportunities, and Guberti feels that this was the real cause of his side's defeat. "The first half could have ended 3-0," Guberti told Sportmediaset. "We passed up a lot of chances and when you don't close a game out, others can get back in it." The former Bari star continued by saying that Claudio Ranieri's side had exposed some of the Rossoneri's flaws in the first half, but their key players gave a performance at the critical time. "They still have problems and we made everyone see them, especially in the first half and partially in the second. "They have to improve, but they have players who can make the difference like on Sunday," he concluded.
