I played in the game for Wests.  The ref was overzealous with the cards but it all stemmed from what he saw with the first one.  I guess if you raise your hands against another player then you give the ref the opportunity to see what he sees.  He decided it was aggressive and sent the guy off and then most of the rest of the cards were for the abuse he continued to cop throughout the rest of the game.  Nobody needs to turn up on a Saturday to get sworn at for 90 minutes.

Let's also clarify that we did allow you lads to play on with 11 for the rest of the game.  I personally didn't see or hear much of what was going on.  From my position at left back it was an enjoyable game and I don't know what all the niggle was about.

Also, on the whole dropping out of Cap 3 thing.  That was only half our team.  We came 2nd in Cap 3 but half our team was 2nd team boys and so us older guys pulled the pin as we wanted to keep the older fellas in there.  Unfortunately the club didn't then have enough young fellas to fill the Cap 2 team which they'd assured us they would when we pulled out.

We never wanted to re-enter at Cap 10 but that was all we could get.

 

I was the first red. I barely touched the guy and he made an absolute meal of it. It wasn't aggressive, I was trying to go back to my position to defend the freekick he had just gifted you. I shouldn't have raised my hand and I certainly shouldn't have touched the guy, but the ref shouldn't be allowed near a football pitch ever again. One of the most blatantly biased referees I've ever seen, we had players walking off the pitch and refusing to play with him as ref, you can't explain that away as "stemming from the first card" because he got worse and worse as the game went on. At least there was a reasonable level of justification for my card, most of his calls were simply unbelievable.

You allowed us to play with 11 because you had no choice under the Cap 8 rules (from my understanding).

You had a defender get away with shoving one of our players worse than I did. He also picked up the ball in his own penalty area while the play was live. You guys were awarded a free kick and the ref admitted he had no justification for the free kick after the game. Our right back received a yellow card, immediately followed by a red despite no first yellow being issued.

I had no issue with you guys as people but if a jumped up arrogant fudge like that is going to ruin a game like that then he's going to cop all the abuse he deserves.

I have no issue with the dropping down personally. It was a tight game, although you were certainly the better team but I think with the players you had you'll settle somewhere around Cap 5 or 6. I assume you also had a few academy players running around out there? Keeper looked dodgy as hell but the rest of the kids were tidy.

However we are talking to Wgtn United about the match and hopefully will be taking this incident further.
