#1 Andre Marriner, Blatent Cheat!!!!!!!!2013-11-11 16:04Mike Riley is an out and out wimp. Like all refs, he's happy picking up his massive salery whilst the fans suffer again! It's so plain for everyone to see that Amdre Marriner is a blatant cheat, but he gets away with it! Fancy putting a self confessed Aston Villa fan in charge of a WBA game. It's asking for trouble. Stand up Mr Riley and explain please!! |

#3 Referees2013-11-11 16:55Personally, I think it would be better if FIFA were to adopt video playback and therefore eliminate any explanation by, and ill-will towards, officials etc. We could also see who are the diving culprits in the game. Why is it that other major sports have taken up video playback and not Football? Please, let's move with the times. |

#112013-11-11 20:09Robert Madley`s decision in giving Stoke a penalty against Swansea has made me sign this petition, If I had made an error like his in my work my employers would have pulled me up about it, Referee's get away with it to easy in my opinion. Human error never ! Total imcompetence YES !! |

#122013-11-11 20:31The major problem with the penalty awarded at Swansea yesterday was that the official did not whistle until the ball went out of play. Indisputable evidence that the decision was not immediate. |

#17 Re: #162013-11-12 12:42The game at the Liberty was pretty unique I think in the fact that there wasn't just the penalty decision that was highly contentious . Leading up to that there were a series of decisions including a handball and a retaken corner that were dubious to say the least. Once might be unfortunate , twice coincidence , Thrice . Well I'll let you decide. Also I wonder if you would be so forgiving if one bad decision costs your team a place in the premiership at the end of the season. |

#182013-11-12 13:56Referees should be regularly re-assessed. If they don't meet a defined criteria, then they should be sent for retraining. If they still fail they should lose their licence. |

#202013-11-12 19:22I signed this after seeing a pathetic, inept performance by the ref in the Swansea v Stoke game last Sunday. Sadly just one of many this year and not just watching my team. |

#212013-11-12 19:43hi i would also like the ref to tell the goal keepers he will not tolorate time wasting it really bugs me if the ref would book the offending keeper after a few warnings he would soon hurry it up but you very rarely see them getting booked after all its cheating rant over |

#22 Re: Re: #162013-11-12 19:44From an Ian Fleming novel "Once is circumstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action, Mr Bond." The penalty decision was enemy action as I described in #12. |

Oppose Islamophobia Definition
We the undersigned oppose any government definition of so-called ‘Islamophobia’. We assert our freedom to expose and oppose the errors and violence of the Islamic religion and to bring the truth of the Gospel to Muslims. We deplore the inherent bias of the Government ‘Working Party on Anti-Muslim Hatred / Islamophobia’ in which every member is either a Muslim activist or, in the case of its chairman, Dominic Grieve KC, an apologist for Islam. We are dismayed that the sole focus of the ‘Working...

Take Brian Kilmeade off the air!
To Rupert Murdoch, Lachlan Murdoch, and all other shareholders and executives of Fox Corporation: On Wednesday, September 10, 2025, Brian Kilmeade casually suggested on "Fox and Friends" that we kill mentally ill/homeless people without benefit of trial, via involuntary lethal injection. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9mq3oKI2KhY This is reprehensible, it is dangerous, and it is sick. As a network, Fox News is known for presenting content that is, to put it mildly, controversial. But t...

Cancel NPC's Car Park Management Contract in GMV West
The Issue The leaseholders of Greenwich Millennium Village (GMV) feel strongly that the decision to have parking enforcement in our private car parks—specifically those in Holly Court, Maurer Court, Metcalfe Court, and Moseley Row—was made without proper consultation with us. This lack of dialogue and transparency has resulted in a management system that does not align with the interests and needs of our community. One of the primary reasons for our concern is the imposition of parking enforceme...

Hardworking People Against AB 928
Assembly Bill 928 is a reckless, poorly written legislative proposal. Whether it's for breeding, showing, rescuing, or keeping roosters for personal, cultural, or spiritual reasons, this bill undermines our way of life. It affects thousands across the state who cherish and maintain these animals as an integral part of our lives. Assembly Bill 928, under the guise of regulating cockfighting, does not distinguish between illegal activities and responsible rooster ownership. Legitimate breeders an...

Add petition "Referees to explain" to this listThe adoption and ratification of a new calendar for the United Global Trade Organization
To whom it may concern, I hope this article finds you well. **The Case for a New Calendar System Based on a Deck of Cards** The current Gregorian calendar, though widely accepted and functional, has long been criticized for its irregularities and inconsistencies. Months vary in length from 28 to 31 days, making planning and scheduling less intuitive. Adopting a new calendar system with "twelve plus one" months of 28 days each, and an additional "transition day" at the end of the year—would br...
