86.23.123.200 - 25-Oct-10 22:01 about Leeds v Cardiff Bothroyd should have been sent off for the tackle on Bechio, Oliver was 4m away looking right at it, Bothroyd then scores. Chopra scores (0-2)from a position 2m offside, asst referee not in line, Oliver with clear line of sight. Leeds eventually loose 0-4 because of Olivers incompetence. Subjectively it felt like he was determined to be strong & not favour the home side, it would appear that he was so determined in this determination that he unconciously favoured Cardiff. Acting as an agent for the Footbal League with a duty to impose the rules of the game Oliver failed in his duty of care under the Health & Safety at work act, Bechio been engaged in his lawful occupation as a pro footballer, negligence of this nature would normally lead to a prosecution under H&S legislation. |
