Brighton (A) | Post-Match Thread

[SamTheGuru]

I am removing the Cancelo thing from this as Cancelo was daft there and yeah 50/50 red.

But the rest of the game.....the trio of "whoever the clown was" in charge of the game making the wrong decision; John Moss highlighting the refs error but going along with the decision; and Peter Walton completely making up on the spot as he goes along to try and justify the full refereeing decision has taken my admiration of the officials to a whole new level. The cynic inside of me thinks that there was a drive to make Brighton win at all costs to prove the value of fans being in the stadium? I am coming across as bitter, and my frustration has 99/100 been felt towards the players for the last 12 months but this was just an unbelievable officiating performance.

Secondly, that was a shower of shite from a third of the team and played knowingly conservative either with the CL final in mind or that the game statistically meant fuck all.

Fair dos to Brighton and fans for having a good day out and party atmousphere, but I am pissed off.

I mentioned it in another thread but Atwells performance against wolves under Mancini led to him being demoted-I spent that game watching in total disbelief. And again tonight-he is completely out of his depth and the game becomes dangerous because of his incompetence.
just hope it was precautionary for Gundogan but it doesn’t look good.

watch the second half again
early on we had a throw in deep into their half
the flag went up straight away as soon as silva got the ball
i couldnt see any contact between silva or the defender so it must have been a foul
maybe i have to watch it again if i can be arsed

Foul throw

The worst thing about this is he was going to give the foul against Jesus but played the advantage. Its totally ridiculous.

Attwell and refereeing is one of the most ridiculous things anyone can think about, let alone equip for a PL game.

Someone tell me that game wasn't rigged, Atwell, Moss and the ' var team' obviously came to an earlier decision to make sure Brighton got every crucial call tonight. They should've been down to ten for that knee high tackle on Gundogan, Bernardo not getting a foul at the end of the first half, we didn't even get to see the replay, then to top it off Llallana doesn't get any of the ball and fouls Jesus in the box, then we're led to believe Moss actually checked it, did he fuck.
Bent as fuck that game, reckon Pep knew it as well

Exactly why they need to get rid of the old boys club, and get independents to run it. No coincidence that the versions they have in Cricket/Rugby run like a dream, and the fans are in the loop. Mic the fuckers up as well.

Brighton has an owner involved in far east betting

Pep is a genius. He called the officials bent but because he uses Pepish instead of English nobody even spots what he’s trying to say. He does it deliberately I’m sure.

“when we won the Premier League, always we did it ourselves”

It seems such a nothing comment but this is Pep calling them corrupt and nobody for BT even realised it.

Garcia can't leave quickly enough, the worst game I've seen a full back play for a very very very long time. I understand he's not a full back but he was a complete disaster, do Barca really want him?

 

[Clevers]

Lescott is being an absolute shit house

What's he said?

 

[raybo]

Atwell is either bent or just incompetent, he was all over the shop, fucking useless cnut
