Been a while Ronnie,welcome back.

And I thought that there was a God!

We're up against it now as he reffed our last game against Oldham at their new ground and lost it for us, being completely 'old manned' throughout the game!

Eventually he sent-off Buster who was then cleared by the Disciplinary Committee.

After last week's refereeing display at Rochdale I wondered how bad things could get; thought that the only ref who was worse is Laughton and hoped against hope that he wouldn't be allocated our game on Sunday and look what's happened now!

We gonna have to put up with this for another year?, Who cares who the ref is? I am not a fan of referees, but I and many others know they have a hard enough job to do in ANY sport.
How many times have people watched a game on tv, thought a decision was wrong, then saw the replay and saw that it ws the right call?
Referees don't have the benefit of replays in our division, they only call what they see, and atleast they have the guts to go out there and do the job...

Rugby_Darren , some refs do get a hard time just for the sake of being the man in the middle .. one of the downfalls of the job . But in Ronnie Laughton we are talking one of the most incompetent b******s that ever walked this planet. People pay good money to watch a game of rugby NOT to watch some clown with an ego bigger than Chris Caisley. Please respect the right for fans to air their views about refs because without us fans there would be no club

Thank goodness it is at home where at least the season Ticket holders should turn up.As promised in previous topics I would not have gone had it been away. I just hope we do not get him for any away games as I pride myself on going to every match, but I will not waste time and money going to watch him ruin a game whether it be to the benefit of Keighley or the opposition. I can accept any amount of genuine errors by a referee but not a referee that takes over the game. I watched the penalty count in some of the games he referees and it is too coincidental that his is nearly always a good 30% higher than the average.

If you do look at this forum Ronnie, please let the game flow

Im looking forward to this game as I have good connections with the Oldham gang.

However, im now very concerned what will take place over the 80mins. I feel Mr Laughton does have too much of a say in the game.

That playoff game v Rochdale sticks in my mind.

There seemed to be a lot of penalties today.

I definitely thought that was a 40/20 in the second half. Anyone know why this was not given?

Dont see what all the fuss is about.

I thought he had a good game today.
