Fans have been left furious on social media after watching Kyle Edwards’ blatantly dive to gift his West Brom side a late winner at Preston last night…
No it shouldn't have been a pen but the standard of officiating in this league is shockingly crap and tonight it was Preston's turn to suffer, won't be the first or last team to get a shocking call go against them

Absolute joke. Never a pen.

@EFL how can Langford give a 100% correct decision from being at least 30 yards away from the incident? The bloke is not fit to referee (literally not fit enough to keep up with play) has he been speaking to Tim Robinson as he gave a pen to @swfc for a blatant dive! #shitrefs pic.twitter.com/GdKx6mVdzB

Absolutely bang on. Any angle would show the player heading down as soon as he touched ball before keeper was within touching distance

@billywigwam13: Another pathetic display of refereeing by Oliver Langford in #PNEvWBA game. This bloke is not up to refereeing an under 10s game at the local park. He’s not fit enough to keep up with play & guesses. Never consulted asst refs either . Arrogant as well as useless.
@TommyBoyd97: No chance. Refs had a mare
@ronaallleeds: Ref had no hesitation absolute disgrace of a decision
@AvfcSims: Baggies cheating once again. Awful refs in that division. Borderline embarrassing. Hope the guy gets banned for conning the ref.
@AndrewFirth21: Simulation at its best and the ref needs demotion for that decision. Until cheating is clamped down on the games being ruined
@millieedmund17: The referee has had an absolute shocker ?
@batesylufc2: He’s already going down. Shocking decision. If there’s any doubt ya don’t give it. Bottled that one I think.
@ChrisHWheeler: Very poor yet again from Langford! Edwards over stretched to get a toe on the ball looked completely off balance and that may well be why he went down. Don’t think Rudd needed to come for it either but can’t have refs guessing massive decisions #lufc
@bluebirds1899: Let’s been honest, the ref has had a shocker tonight. Count up the amount of mistakes that they have made. Very poor officiating at Championship level & unfortunately it’s a regular thing.Seems that linesman/women don’t want to get involved & rarely help out the ref #EFL
@JmacLeeds: @EFL really is this the standard of official you think is acceptable at this level of football. The ref was at least 30 meters away and could never have seen the incident clear enough to give an honest opinion. Is there any wonder people think that the standard is very poor. Mot
