    I would have loved one of the Hull players to have asked why the ball in touch with Regan, wasn't reversed against Singleton.

    He’d have probably have marched them up field for the penalty if they had.

    I wouldn’t like to be a ref but they don’t help themselves with poor and inconsistent decisions and I’m sure some “game management” is involved. I hope nothing tonight turns on a poor refereeing decision.

    Some of the decisions by Kendall in the last few weeks are odd, as Roger Moore says why was he given the match after last week.
    Is he Thierry Alibert in disguise?
    Ok fine, but could yuo just explain that why in a challenge cup final a referee would sprint away from a try without reviewing it,killed any momentum we may have got going. He definitely did not want a saints win.

    Because he was convinced it wasn't a try?

    The issue with the penalty wasn't getting in the faces of players.. it was Griffin running in and patting him on the head about five times.. at the point in the game it was crazy from Hull.

    That said if all the Saints players had run in on singleton instead of just taking it we'd probably have got a penalty

    Which is fair enough. The thing that does my head in, some Wigan players do that every week (patting on the head) and nothing has ever been done about it, as far as I can remember.

    Last night seemed a strange time to start clamping down on it.

    I heard from a Ref that game management is involved.

    I’m not disputing that - just saying that him getting it wrong doesn’t equal an anti-Saints conspiracy.

I've said a thousand times Wigan are officiated differently to the rest of the league. No one can fail to see the bias in Kendall's performance last night. The penalty for patting thug Partington on the head (who reacted like a maniac and had to be held back by Hull and Wigan players) being given when last week he couldn't t see a swinging clenched fist to the face in front of him. You can bet your life if a Saints player had reacted as Partington did, he'd have been yellow carded, no problem. Then there's the push in the back re the non try for Hull, wasn't Hardaker offside? Throughout the game, as with the derby, Wigan were yards offside. Tony Clubb was the first player in leading the charge on a couple of occassions.................he's really that fast? I don't think so. Then there was the usual third man in "lending weight" (that's Wigan speak for falling on two team mates and a grounded player after the tackle is complete) in most tackles. Kendall should never have been given that game after his awful performance last week, never. When he started out he seemed a decent ref, but he's obviously had the "rules" explained to him and is now towing the party line, pathetic.

    Ollie Gildart was penalised for it either early this season or late last season, but don't let fact get in the way of a good conspiracy theory.

    Well stop bringing it into the conversation, nobody with any sense believes you.Maybe you should get your chairman to write another letter about it.

    Just to put it into context, go on any teams fans forum and they believe that the referee is against them, and the sky commentators favour the other team.
