I'm convinced that had it been Gareth Barry they wouldn't either, and I suspect had Spurs won even Mario might have got some leeway. The media is thick with haters who want us to fail, luckily they are going to be disappointed, and my gut feeling is that each time they go after us the team gets stronger, its adds to the enjoyment of this season. I just wish the club as a whole would be more pro-active, as Blue2112 posted last night, its time to fight back, become strong, take no more shit.Balti said:If this had been a rag I am confident that the medja would not have gone after the player in question as they did with Balo. There are numerous examples to back this up in this thread. That's either because it's Balo in which case it's bordering on racism, or it's because he plays for City which infers some sort of bias against our club.

If you see a player walking away, you can creep up behind him and give him a reach around slap, with the worst result being a yellow, IF the Ref sees it !

Club, team, and fans.
I'm hoping so anyway, the club do read our opinions, and I really do hope that we start to fight back, its never done the rags any harm, and while I would prefer we did it with rather more class, I'd still prefer we did it.DTeacher said:It's feasible to believe that it's started.
Khaldoon's statement.
Platt's press conference.
Balotelli's agent and his words.

If they approach me outside they'll get resounding "just f**k off", and I hope they get the same reaction from all blues tomorrow night.strongbowholic said:Cannot wait for 7:00. Wondering how Sky will approach us?

I've just seen another replay of Crouch and the intent is clear to see in his face as he scrawps Olsson. If that isn't violent conduct ergo red card, then I genuinely don't know what the fuck is. If in Anthony Taylor's opinion he wouldn't have given a red even if he had seen it, then there needs to be a complete overhaul of refereeing in this country.
