Would not be my first choice of ref for Wycombe as he seems to favour the more physical teams. Could be worse could be Stroud or Ward |  | | |

Hooper really is one of the best refs in the game and generally (discounting any Wycombe nightmares) one of the most solid and fairest refs around. Most games under his control seem to flow well and he doesn't particularly insert himself into situation unless he needs to. He was on the radio a few months and one thing I noticed is that he's very laid back but knows his stuff. Hopefully leads to a decent game fairly reffed. |  |

It WILL be 'fairly' reffed.
Will you agree with every decision, will I? Nope , but that doesn't make it 'unfair'
End of sermon - sorry! | | | |

Fair intentions are different to fair actions. |  | | |

Fair = treating people equally without favouritism or discrimination.
So think if you do 1) (Intention) then that means you have done 2) (Action)
Just because you or me think those actions are 'wrong' doesn't make them unfair. | | | |

Nope. I'm sure every professional referee goes into a game intending to apply the laws fairly and even handedly to both sides. We all know that there occasions when they don't, eg one player is penalised for an offence but another is not for an identical offence in the same game. So, 1 certainly does not mean you have done 2.
Not suggesting that any refs are biased but inconsistency certainly does exist and that can result in unfairness. [Post edited 10 Mar 2021 17:57]

Inconsistency isn't unfairness.
One implies incompetence, one implies cheating.
Take your point about the outcomes being 'unfair' but that doesn't mean the ref has been 'unfair' I don't think.
Anyway just semantics really and the ref had a good game last nigh,. albeit as Clive said, a a fairly easy game (for this level) to ref.

That's not what I said. I didn't say inconsistency WAS unfairness, I said it can RESULT IN unfairness, which I'm really not sure how you can deny. | | | |
