I wasn't at the match so I can't comment on the various events that took place. All I can say is that cup games add spice to the season but the authorities must ensure that limbs and organs aren't at risk. City and Diddy love competing in the FA cup where, with all respect, we are the small fry.
As for Mr Coggins. It is not his fault that he is being fast-tracked and it must be tempting for a youngster to take important games even though he might not be completely ready for them.
Hopefully he is still prepared to learn from his mistakes and he will improve as he gets older. He has talent even though he isn't the finished product. We need to encourage him and others like him.

: Padz - I read your comments and then went to
: read the 'from the terrace' match commentary
: - there I saw that the legendary Mr Antonny
: Coggins was the main official you commented
: on. Now this young man has shot to stardom
: (how know one knows!) in a relatively short
: space of time (he is 18/19/). He has
: therefore never palyed football at a senior
: level and certainly has no idea of how to
: instill respect from senior players
: (therefore he does not bother to explain a
: thing to them - let alone talk to them).
: His last review in the NLP (when he ref'd
: Newport County in BS South) was very amusing
: (he was the only one on the pitch, benches,
: terraces, seats that thought the penalty he
: gave was deserved!).
: Thank god he doesn't do Hellenic football
: any more!

: Lovely display of Senior League tackling,
: the
: sort of challenges that should be dealt with
: by a strong referee and a red card (or 2),
: the official last night was awful, he let
: several dangerous 2 footed tackles go and
: seemed to be smiling and laughing with the
: W&B players all too much, we could've done
: with a Lewis Craker character out there last
: night to even the score, with Maloney and
: Ricky taken to hospital it's all we need
: before saturdays crucial game at Farny
:
: Wasn't a terrific display from City, with
: passes all too often going to the oppo,
: Jonah looked fit and ready though which is a
: bonus and Belly's second was a real peach of
: a strike, Good to see Jonny G out on the
: pitch at h/t , hopefully a return for him is
: not far off.
