Too angry to notice anything about the tactics today. Hey, at least he's not Mancini.

Paradoxically, the enormity of the injustice today has somehow made it less crushing for me than if we had just lost 2-1 after a normal match. After Ben Arfa went off I felt like taking a gun to my mouth, now I feel fired up and eager to show two fingers to this bent league and its "favorite" teams by staying up this season. Hopefully the players feel the same way.

Hopefully the SHEER, SMOLDERING INJUSTICE of this travesty of a match will be enough to rally us into saving our season. That is all.

Fucking, fucking hillarious this ref. Absolutely fucking hillarious.

I'm not even joking when I say they bought off the ref now. I sincerely believe that happened.

Cheating + Buying off the ref + having super-expensive players to bail you out when you actually let them play football = win

I think I can count the number of penalty's I've seen us get ever on one hand.

Hughton subs Nolan off. Millions die of shock.

I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate being right.

As if on cue

Man City are threatening when they actually decide to attack. We'll be fucked if Adam Johnson comes on for David "why am I here again?" Silva

I refuse to believe that it happend by accident. We all know that there are managers out there who instruct their players to take those little moments to "rough up" the opposition. Step on the leg when you could jump over it etc.

Three enforced substitutions. Happy day.

Now finally starting to look like a Champions League chasing team v. a survival chasing one. We'll need to hold on. Krul having a good game to keep us in it.

The only way I can describe Shola's close control is that it's so bad it's almost good.

Seeing Perch trying to stop Tevez makes me shed tears of blood.

West Ham slowly giving back what we've borrowed them. Is Kieron Dyer next?

Colo Reminds me of Wigan during the relegation season in the way they've managed to systematically remove our two best players at once.

Great (accidental?) stop by Krul, Tiote shows Yaya Toure what real black power is.

Jonas reminding us that he's a god-damn Argentina international and to even entertain the prospect of picking Kevin Nolan or Wayne Routledge ahead of him is fucking madness.

disgusted by their tackling. They're like the negativity of Big Sam and the dirtiness of the Italians rolled into one, only with players who cost 5 gazillion dollars.

Shola Skywalker using the Force to craft the assist

JONAS :fwap: Okay, never mind, I love football again now. Howay the lads.
