No Agar did the main press conference to all press. Radford did Humberside an interview.

I think he has every right to be annoyed whatever anybody thinks of agar that display tonight by the Childs was one of the worst i've seen. He didn't have a clue. He had no control over anything and some of his decisons were bafflling. He shouldn't ref another super league game ever again for me.

The unfortunate thing is that there are not enough refs so he won't be dropped,he certainly left me baffled with some of his decisions.All the fan's want is consistency by the man in the middle and after seeing that display we got a very sub standard performance.

needed saying, although (s)cummings will not have a word said against his useless crop of referees, cantbelieve im saying this but halibert is the only stand out ref this season from what ive seen so far

Just where do you think Stuart Cummings is going to conjure up replacements from?

Why don't we have a wealth of experienced referees, all lined up and ready to take charge of pro games, as back-up because an under-performing referee has been dropped?

I'll tell you why. It's because our game, from youth level up, is inflicted with know-nowt numpties, who choose to vent all their frustrations out on the referee. I've lost count of the number of promising young referees I've seen in the past, who were lost to the game because they were subjected to abuse from parents, speccies and coaches.

I'm not defending Childs but you have to realise that there is little alternative when the referee pool is so shallow. Just think about that, the next time you think you know better than the young lad, who has bothered to get a whistle and take charge of an under 11 game. Why should he bother to be the subject of touchline abuse from some idiot who has never read The Laws of the Game?

It could have been a good game of rugby,but it was ruined by an inept referee. I'm not going to say he cost us the game, because he was crap for both teams.

The players were obviously frustrated and it showed. Sincerely hope he gets dropped although that won't help us.

Didn't cost us the game but had a total mare.

i get what your saying but to have a zero tolerence of criticism against referees is wrong, how do they improve?

also think you need to chill a bit from your last paragraph! rugby, football, ice hockey, whichever sport refs linesman will always get criticism from supporters its happened for years!

Re: Childs : Fri Apr 01, 2011 10:02 pm  

The ref was poor, for both sides. Cas made a better fist of working with a poor ref, players like Sean Long should know better.

Re: Childs : Fri Apr 01, 2011 10:03 pm  

I am left completely baffled and bewildered by the referee tonight. Was really looking forward to the game with Cas coming in with such good form and Hull with a point to prove but sadly it became the James Child show. Some of his decisions just left me baffled!

Please Hull FC complain to the RFL about this clown so we dont have to suffer him again anytime soon. He can spend the rest of the season spoiling other Super League games.

Re: Childs : Fri Apr 01, 2011 10:03 pm  

His stats say it all, we picked up 6 yellows and a red throughout last season, child reffed us twice and gave out 4 of the yellows and the red. Where we that much worse in those two games than the other 26...

The man ruins games as a spectacle, i would seriously consider not going to a game purely cos hes reffing which cant be right.

Re: Childs : Fri Apr 01, 2011 10:06 pm  

Im not gonna blame the ref as we still had chances to win the game. For all how bad he actually was, i left feeling angry and frustrated. I wish the game could have been on tv for people to see so i dont have to defend my team.

Anyway im going to put the game to bed now but i do feel sorry for the players and the effort they put in.
