Reading the bbc report,it might have something to do with their mics or earpieces?It resulted in 21 minutes added time at the end of the match. |  | |  |

I was at a Bees game earlier this season and the start to the second half was delayed while the ref sorted out his earpiece (had to get a new one?). Only took two or 3 minutes, mind. |  | |  |
| Championship news on 07:45 - Oct 6 with 2550 views | Juzzie | When I saw the results and that Swansea had scored a 98th minute i thought ‘wow!’ but now seeing when the game finished it was really the 81st minute. Still good but not really ‘wow!’ I think the way goals times are reported needs overhauling. |  | |  |

I agree. It's just silly. When they can shrug their shoulders and move on when goal line technology fails or make horrific mistakes despite all the tech, they should just get on with it and pop over to have an old fashioned chat with the linos if there's any issues during the match. |  | |  |

What a farce, no thought to fans having to travel home even later missing trains make sure the earpiece is working. Bloody ridiculous |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Tend to agree. I'm assuming, but don't know, that even with radio mics, they still have buzzer flags, so they could easily make do with that in my opinion. As you say, any major incident, they would have to do what the rest of us have to and that's have a real life chat - happens quite rarely though. |  | |  |

Well it is radio technology, so may have been to do with the signal, the mics, earpiece, talkback on/off - who knows - but its a bit more than just an earpiece. As above though, could have done without it for a 45' I think. |  | |  |
