Glad they got the decision right but a bit odd the way they came to the decision to disallow that Chelsea goal.

The referee clearly looked over to the assistant and then signalled for a goal, before changing his mind.

They'll never admit it but reckon the 4th official might have spotted that and had a word in his ear.

I think the ref only glanced at the lino to look for offside so once he saw the flag had stayed down he awarded the goal which meant the lino realised the ref hadn't seen the handballed so he flagged at that point.

Anyone remember the outrage when Mancini was caught waving an imaginary yellow card (can't remember the game now) but this twat Mourinho has just been waving both arms whilst sprinting from the bench like Usain Bolt in a 100m dash. Fuck all said though.
I do and it was unfair. I personally have no problem with players asking for yellow or red cards, but it depends what for. If your opponent has mistimed a tackle then I think it's uncalled for. However, for deliberately cheating like taking down the last man on purpose or awful leg breaker tackles the players should want the rules enforced.

I hate the idea that waving a card is somehow worse than going to the ref and telling him to give a booking etc.
you speak sense crystalman

I have no problem with it myself but for whatever reason the British media seem to go all hyperbole over it on when they have an agenda to do so. I suppose it's not quite the British thing to do old sport.

Here's a thought ... allow the ref to referee the game free of any outside influence!!

The atmosphere from the stands here is that its only time before Chelsea score. The Villa fans are a bit defeatest, just like their manager.

They sound as though they are behind their team as far as I can hear on Sky TV.
