Puma, I’m happy for you that your team is doing well.
What I don’t have much time for is our (saffer) flippen obsession with refs’ performances when our teams’ performances are anything but perfect.
Its immature to constantly and as a rule blame refs for any substandard peformance by our team.
We really need to build a bridge and get over it….
