And we are second, two points behind with two games in hand, make that three now the Harefield game has to be replayed. Plus we play you at home in two weeks. A win will see us in a VERY strong posiston.

NOT a mistake, he got a fundamental part of the law of the game WRONG, of course mistakes are made, but this was the LAW he got wrong. Of course the officials are only human and errors are made, BUT, unlike say if the ball cleary crossed the line and he never gave a goal, this was the letter of the law, and he he got it wrong.

I wonder what will happen to the ref? prob a slap on the wrist and told to drop down a league or two.

I'm with NF on that....as harsh and as wrong as it was it does open the floodgates....they'll be loads of appeals every week now !

[NeutralFan]

So if a ref gives a direct free kick instead of what should be an indirect free kick and it is scored from.. the game should be replayed....

Harefield dont really have a case. I dont see why Hertford should shed a tear for them. It means that the league could be between yourselves and us, with Harefield tyring to make up ground.

Gav - I'm not on either side! The FA may have been involved in the consideration of your appeal (no league would take such a radical step without at least sounding the FA out) but Harefield have to have the right of appeal, that's all I'm saying. They will probbably lose, but it will drag the whole thing out for a long time.

How great is it to have something decent to debate !....good ridance to the...Great Glen Shurety, The Non league newspaper and Tommy Lambourne Posts !

[GRS67]

NO, because that is human error and we all know that refs/linesman make errors. This as I said is the letter of the law, as stated in law 14 of the FA rules, (football rules in general for that matter)

 

I dont know all the ins and outs of football laws, but I know that night he made a fundamental mistake that cost us the game. The fact it happened against a side that are going to be there or thereabouts with us for the league made it EVEN more of a huge mistake.

 

Sure, this IS going to have a huge bearing on the outcome of the league, SHOULD Edgware draw or win the replayed match, as Harefield would have dropped points and we would have gained, should we get a result.

If this is correct and they have allowed it I wonder how long before the big boys go to court with it! Think if the money involved at a professional level. This is a very dangerous thing to do.

Tubbsy.. save me a seat in the stand! Complimentary pass wouldn't go amiss either!! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

[Tubbsy8]

See what I can do Hop-along!

[GRS67]

I wonder how many players will be left on the field when we face Harefield in the re match?

 

After the recent events of their players attacking our youth team managers, and now us winning the appeal, one thing is for sure, firworks a plenty. Light the blue torch paper and stand well back!!!!

Agree entirely - infortunately the buffoons at FIFA did set a precedent with the World Cup game (international politics rather than football sense), and it's now hard to ignore it.

It will be interesting when someone comes up with a video of an offide that was given or not given and they can prove the other way. Do when then replay that match. Yes the ref made a huge [****!!****] up but there is nothing to say that either Edgware would of scored the retake or that Harefield would not of won 5-1 cos they upped their game after the spot kick. Nothing against Edgware but this could cause huge problems.

[Horace]

Krooner - on a serious issue like this, I'm with you. Bad decision. End of story.

 

p.s Where IS the promised land?

You need to edit your post krooner as some of the words I dont have any idea, as you made some typos. Re the match, sure there is no way of teling we would have scored, but at least we would have had a second chance, and though I am sure upset if we had of missed after being told to re take, I would rather that then not being given the chance.

You say Harefield were on top after the penalty? were you at the game? Edgware dominated the second period, and we were unlucky not to score on several occasions.

[Horace]

Gav - don't think our good friend Krooner was saying what you think - was making the point that they MIGHT have been able to raise their game. Can understand your feelings about this game, guess I'd have been the same if it had been Hertford, but don't get excitedyet. Can guarantee that the league table won't be altered yet. Probably will be eventually, but you'll have to contain your excitement for a while, I reckon mate.

If this is true then I think it's a sad day for football as we know it (sorry Gavin this is not having a go at you or Harefield - even if it's good to see our webb footed neighbours stitched up).

Appeals left right and center - how many games replayed - the season would never end.

I'm sure if I thought about it I could come up with valid reasons why at least two of our games this season should be replayed because of incorrect decisions at key moments - we all could but that's life.
