Chris Foy

The decision to fail the appeal was all about closing ranks, protecting refs. In my view however they should have listened to the appeal, state that Foy was right 'technically' to give the red card, but reduce the penalty due to the fact that Komps got the ball cleanly and no contact was made. But unfortunately they are spineless, clueless morons who have done themselves no favours, especially after Johnson's tackle.

I just hope it's bad refs and not a way of the FA acting like handycappers in the racing world and trying to make it a good even race! Or am i being paranoid? LOL

Heard on the radio today that Foy had been extremely rude to one of the producers prior to the game. The comment was made if he is like that normally what is he like when he is on charge on the pitch.
Regarding the incompetence allegations does anyone remember Poll stating that it was in the ref's interest to favour the top teams. Incompetence? more like favouritism.

He made no motion to booking him at all untill the beady eyed shrek fucker started moaning in his face.

He is at best a mediocre ref.

Your right there! but if you read BaconChops after match interview he said that Kompany does that tackle a lot! So I bet he told Rooney only that if Kompany goes in sliding get in the refs face

Chucking them sly buggers into the fires of mount doom would be considered an action worthy of many medals and much honour.


I forgot about baconmush saying that yeah. Sounds like he has taken methods of operation of his dodgy bent lawyer.

He didn't do anything wrong to be repremanded for. In the eyes of the law of the game he did the right thing. It is the law of the game that needs changing.

Funny guy.
As I said, the challenge in our eyes, and in the eyes of most people who've spoke of it, was fine but in the eyes of Foy, it wasn't. Foy followed what he has been told are the rules, so how can he be repremanded for it? It is the ref who failed to send off Johnson who should be repremanded, that or the rules quite rightly need changing.
It has fuck all to do with being 'contrary', but like I say you're a funny guy so....

I'll go one step further. I do want to kill Foy with extreme prejudice, disolving slowly in a vat of low molar (i.e not very strong so it takes longer) acid works for me.

Oh and by the way how the fuck did he manage not to notice the Evra elbow? Blind or corrupt you decide.
 
Ok pidge how about if he cannot be reprimanded for following the rules, 2 challenges yesterday were worse than kompanys one of which was a stoods up challenge which resulted in the player being stretchered off this attracted only a yellow.

Given that he slavishly followed the rules last week and therefore cannot be reprimanded for that can he be reprimanded this week for choosing not to follow the rules?

I don't know if he can but like the ref in the Johnson incident should be repremanded for failing to send him off, if Foy fucked up yesterday then he should be brought to task. This isn't me defending Foy, it could be Foy, Walton or cp30 for all I care. The OP asked why Foy got a game after the Kompany incident, and I answered his question. Not defending Foy, being contrary or indeed being a tit, as swpsback so delightfully tried to insinuate.
 
Fair point but thats where the FA fail if you back him up because he follows the rules then you cannot also back him up when he doesnt.

That was my point in my first post, the rules need to change in relation to the incident in question, I.e. two footed tackles or they need to be consistent and send anyone off who does it. The FA are twats though when it comes to this, which is why the incident in question has caused so much controversy. To clarify though, Foy should be demoted or punished another way if he failed to do his job properly yesterday, but on the guidelines he has, he did his job 'correctly' on this incident raised in the OP, so he can't be done for that.
 
well that is in question isnt it, he did his job properly in one incidence I think in the majority of peoples eyes he did his job properly yesterday by yellow carding a challenge that while contentious and maybe deserving of a red he took the road of not ruining the game which is the road is always want to see taken unless there is absolutely no other option.

If his job was to ruin a top game being broadcast to the entire world over a decision based on his logic and interpretation then he did it fantastically if his job was to referee a game to the best of his abilities and allow that game of football to evolve into a contest between two teams without his input then he failed miserably.
 
I know. I've seen it now and if he's yellow carded that he should be spoke as to why he didn't send him off like he did Kompany. I'm not interested in games being ruined or anything else, the op asked why he got a game based on sending Kompany off and in the letter of the law he has nothing to answer for. In the eyes of us the fans, he has everything to answer for. If the law is to be followed he should be spoke to about his 2 contrasting decisions on similar incidents.

But in the past the FA have reprimanded refs and demoted them to lower leagues after upholding appeals.

So we're repeating this Twatter rumour as gospel now then?
