Hatchet Job

[FantasyIreland]

Often our own worse enemy......seek every advantage,dont stay on your feet because of some misguided honesty.....the refs don't respect it and we end up losing out,'play' the game!

We are far too nice at times and as a result get fuck all from the referees.

Kun, Sterling and Silva should all be encourage to stay down and roll around when they have been cynically hacked down. The likes of Yaya and Kolarov should also be encouraged to run over and kick up a fuss.

It's time to start forcing the refs into take action like other clubs do.

We get no more rough treatment than other teams and we can give it out just as much too (look at how many stupid fouls we give away) Leicester were not dirty yesterday, they put in a few strong challenges and a few kicks but nothing vicious and it stopped when they were carded. Fernandinho does that nearly every single game for us. Take the blue tinted specs off people. Tricky skillfull players are always going to get a few kicks, whether accidentally or intentionally. it's called football

It's not any worse than what happens to other players in the league we just notice it more because it's our players.

Did anyone see Huths deliberate Elbow in midweek game against Liverpool, very surprised it was not picked up on, being honest if that had been Costa doing it the media would have been all over it like a rash..

Sunderland booted our players off the park and Leicester in the 1st half certainly put themselves about, that said we can be soft as shite and easily bullied off the ball..

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Not sure what you mean. If someone kicks me, I kick back twice as hard and twice as long. If someone kicks one of our players, they either disappear or just take it without giving back. Hence the opposition just kick shit out of them, ably backed by benign officials.

This was the general notion in 323. They will continue to kick the shit out of our players until the ref produces a card, and then someone else will take up the cudgels. There are teams and playes who know full well how many hatchets they can bury in an oppo's back. For Zab it's generally two, for Morgan yesterday it was four! Another aspect of cheating referees!

Oh to have good ole Nigel bite yer legs de Jong back!!

Met my mate after the game (Chelsea fan) who only saw the first half and totally disagreed that we were getting a kicking. Now either we've got blue tinted glasses on or TV misses it as he calls stuff pretty fairly.

Aguero was getting hammered early on, and Aguero is a very fair player. he goes in very hard for 50-50s sometimes a bit recklessly imo, but he's not a diver

 

[DT King of all Geordies]

When Arsneal beat us a few years ago. I think it was 3-0. They were much better than us but they also took home 4 or five yellow cards. Each time we managed to break away they hauled us down and took a card. Should we do this a bit more or rely on our skill.

Remember on Boxing day against Sunderland? Sterling brought down in the box early on and promptly booked for diving, when it was a clear penalty.

Guess who the ref was that day? None other than a certain Mr Taylor!

You know damn well you'll get nowt out of him in any game he is our ref. Bent the lot of them.
