WestYorksRoyal One thing I don't like is Hunt blaming officials every time we lose instead of trying to control the controllables. Selles never did it.

Obviously some top managers like Klopp are right dickheads when talking about officials, but they must surely be holding the team to account behind the scenes. I do wonder if Hunt has more of a victim mentality on the club's circumstances than Selles, and that means he'd giving the players more slack.


I guess the thing is, there seem to be so many blatant, game altering decisions that have not gone our way in the last few games, he has a fair grievance. Some of the non-penalty decisions have been crazy.

It isn't like him bemoaning every little decision.

Yeh, but games like Blackpool, Lincoln and Orient were really poor. I know goals change games, but we're losing matches because the opposition is objectively better than us and that should be our takeaway.

Yes - I don't like the continual moaning of officials. Aside from maybe the offside the other night none were remotely as bad as what happened at Derby last season and even then Selles didn't have a lot to say about it.
