SOME OF THE ONE EYED COMMENTS ON HERE SUPPORTING BAILEY ARE HILARIOUS

HE PUSHED A REFEREE. THERES ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR HIS ACTIONS

RESPECT FOR THE OFFICALS IS PARAMOUNT, YOU CANT GO SHOVING THEM

Re: Bailey & Webb Charged : Wed Mar 14, 2012 10:26 am  

My take on the whole situation is this:



He pushed a ref and got banned.

Re: Bailey & Webb Charged : Wed Mar 14, 2012 11:49 am  

Fair enough, except on Warrington. If the offence warrants 3 games then silverwood should have sent him off there and then (although I guess, given his track record, that he may have actually missed it). Had he done so, Wire might well have won.

The important message from the RFL is not aimed at superleague at all but further down the leagues and to all of the match officials who do the job unpaid and often unthanked, its good that they are seen to be backing up a referee.

Re: Bailey & Webb Charged : Wed Mar 14, 2012 12:46 pm  

I have no problem with him being banned for the contact on the ref, but it needs to be in proportion to other incidents from this season, and three games is way OTT.

Is it really worth a longer ban than for what Tommy Lee received for almost decapitating Lee Briers?
