Why not a 50% bonus if the officials don't make 1 mistake and if they do make mistakes lose 50% of there match fee?! That will cut out the bias rag Arsenal Liverpool officials who support these teams but lie when asked who they support so they get the big games!!
Agree to a certain extent but it's points on the board that count and you need to accumulate them all the time. What's saying we won't have a run of injuries after Xmas,the bigger picture is that we are still 7 points infront of Chelsea who are the only other team in the premier league that have the squad to win it in my book and if man city are taking there foot of the gas and clearing up the little injuries we have to the main players for the long season ahead then I can take it
we have a back bone to our team and every other team would love Kompany Hart Yaya Silva Aguero and if they need game time or missing a couple of games for the good of the club/team in a long season who are we to point fingers. YES it hurt losing yesterday but that will mean nothing at the end of the season if we are champions and cup winners. many battles will be lost this season but if winning the war is your aim we should all stand together in back each other in times of crisis
If we had replays on every dodgy decision made by officials, there would be more time wasted on emails and less time on actual football. Officials do need to be made more accountable for such crass decisions. Perhaps a yellow card for officials followed by a red for the next stupid mistake and a months van without wages. Probably a bit too extreme, but the fact officials can screw up and just walk away with no recourse, galls the he hell out of me
Watching some of it back and we really didn't create many clear chances. It's frustrating to see how our performance and effort changed after half time, we should have come out angry at the decision against us. Sterling missing that chance at 1-0 was huge, a good save still.
Him missing chances is costing us at the moment.
Personally I don't think he got it wrong, for some reason only known to himself and clattenburg he decided I'm not going to flag this, not human error just reasonsI was at the game and for 40 minutes we were in complete control. Cue disgraceful decision, or rather non decision and not only are Spurs back in the game but the psychology of the game totally changes. It wasn't simply the margin of the error that was disruptive but the timing could simply not have been worse. You can imagine the dressing room at half time, prior to that goal it would have been calm and confident but after that there would have been frustration, anger and also psychologically, that the officials could get a decision 'so' wrong would be nagging in your mind and making you nervous holding a high line.
You could see the impact just by the fact we conceded again in farcical circumstances just after the break. Still, we had a chance to get back and a draw at WHL wouldn't have been too bad until yet again the officials intervene to kill the game off.
I can take losing a game but to lose a game in that manner through inept or corrupt officiating really makes me sick to the stomach.
Seriously if referees can get decisions 'that' wrong just what hope is there for us? To be honest I feel sick for the players that 45 minutes of good work has been completely undone when quite simply they were doing their job supremely well. There is absolutely no justice in that result. None.
Like I have said it can sometimes be cathartic painful nonethelesslast time we conceeded 4 goals we went on to win our next 11 league games........
Fucking lost my sleep even after heavy drinking at wedding party. I hope there is some kind of action against the lino. Yes he is still a human but profession like his ,you can't afford to repeat same mistake twice.
Is he just incompetent or bent as fuck ?
They wanted us to lose & did their job to perfection, I'm just surprised anyone is surprisedWe were top of the league,looking to go five points clear,came out second half,and they could'nt give a fuck.
What does cathartic mean? Genuinely don't know.Like I have said it can sometimes be cathartic painful nonetheless
What does cathartic mean? Genuinely don't know.
this!! plenty of times over and even more evidence from the lack of red for lamella which nearly broke Kolarov's ankle and that shitty tackle on Roberts by that upstart Alli late on - he had one intention there and that was to hurt the kid - such a tosser and I sincerely hope he gets twatted himself sometime soon - I will enjoy that a lot - might even send him a card to remind him of the KarmaThey wanted us to lose & did their job to perfection, I'm just surprised anyone is surprised
