We lost because we were nowhere near good enough,as we haven’t been for a very,very long time now. Club is broken,not sure it can be mended sadly

We’re not great (clearly) but my god the officiating is Mickey Mouse. It’s being played on a farmers field with the worst refereeing I’ve seen for years... and we’re expected to by this as European rugby?

ERC need to take a look in the mirror.

How many times have we seen those ignored when against us?

Well less forward than their first try but as we all know tonight the law says that green shirts are illegal...
No, not that one!

Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?

Really that’s as bad a decision as I’ve seen - we have been poor but a 3 try swing is really making it hard for us

OK I usually try and steer clear of blaming the officials but these are corrupt!

And more biased officiating by the TMO - it’s embarrassing for the sport

No use blaming the ref: until we learn to look after the ball and don’t give daft penalties away we will struggle to be competitive.
Sadly if we now lose the last two games morale will be low and next season will be another torrid one.

Can’t believe people are still clinging to the officiating excuses! Time to wake up and smell the coffee!

Exactly my thoughts - it was the only one called out of the usual dozen through the game
