Wilder: 'Where are the up-and-coming referees?'

  • Published

Blades boss Chris Wilder spoke to BBC Radio Sheffield after their 3-2 defeat at Portsmouth.

"There were a number of decisions that incredibly frustrated me," he said.

"I just think where are the young up and coming referees that should be refereeing in the Championship instead of the ones that just survive.

"They keep surviving and no doubt we'll have another survivor on Saturday, where's the quality?

"We feel a bit hard done by tonight and we were a threat, three goals in the last three games come from 25 to 30 yards and there was nothing Michael could do.

"The attitude of the team late on was so good and they fought for each other like mad, it's a tough one to take."
