Tell that to Sunderland fans as they are convinced as are the local media it’s an official apology.

So because Sunderland fans believe something, that makes it true? If there were an official announcement from a PGMOL source that would be convincing evidence but so far as I can see, all we have here are unsubstantiated claims of something supposedly said behind closed doors.

No but for the local press to use the term official an apology that normally holds some weight.

What are they basing hhis on as the club clearly think they received one.

Are you talking about the time when there was a Birmingham player down injured and the referee stopped play when Ruddy was in possession?

That was a perfectly acceptable decision and one of the kind you see every week. Actually, I've noticed that with the new, uncontested drop ball law, referees in general seem slightly more inclined to stop play for injuries, knowing that the ball is just going to go back to the team that was in possession (or the goalkeeper if the ball is in the penalty area, as it was in this case).

There's no requirement for the ball to be put out of play before the referee stops play for an injury.

The ref had correctly played on. It wasn’t a head injury. She didn’t stop the game… Ruddy picked it up and refused to play it even with her signalling to play on.

You really need to try and take a step back and view the sport more objectively. We all want Boro to win but you’d probably enjoy the game more without such a partisan/everyone hates us attitude.

Yeah, this tbh. If it's not complaining about referees it's complaining about Don Goodman on commentary, or someone else on commentary, or someone doing punditry, or the other person next to them doing punditry. Exhausting.
