gbandit Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 It's easy to blame the ref, but it was moronic to do what he did. Him and Cabaye have been doing this for a while now, was going to catch up with them eventually. Moronic? What? He was looking to play the ball, put his foot out to connect with the ball and took the man with a nothing challenge where his studs were showing but there was no follow through or movement into the tackle. It's barely a fucking yellow. Honestly disgraceful refereeing. Atkinson needs to get the fuck out of the game, he shouldn't be allowed to do another PL game after that match Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me while that situation stays then it will stay like it is, poor decisions and poor refs. I'm a firm believer in a footballer knowing the difference in intent when viewing a tackle, therefore ex-footballers should be fast tracked, obviously weeding out the crappy ones.

It wasn't a red card man, fair enough he's reckless. Fair enough he's not been at his best for a while and fair enough he picks up far too many cards for nothing incidents. Not a red, shouldn't have to apologise for that, should take a look at his attitude though and realise he needs to change the stupid things in his game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 He doesn't think, that's his problem. He was terrific in his first season, but since then he's only performed on the odd occasion. His red card was long overdue; a liability sadly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 He raised his hands and lashed out, after the whistle too. It looked like nowt but by the letter of the law it is a red card, and Tiote should have known better. Atkinson is a f***ing s*** ref mind, gave the mackems everything all afternoon and the dopey c***s still couldn't win the game. How is it a red "by the letter of the law"? Raised his hands? Absolutely. It isn't red by the letter of the law. That post show no knowledge of the rules. Howay then, enlighten me. He raised his hands and made contact with the player, above the chest, in an aggressive manner. I haven't read the referee's comprehensive rulebook but as far as I can remember that results in a red card, no matter how petty or pathetic the contact is. I'm not taking the piss, but I really think you should watch it again. I've seen it a few times and I haven't changed my mind. I still think it was a red, although I think Larsson should have been sent off for the mackems and the fact they got no bookings shows what a shite ref Atkinson truly is.

Incognito Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 It was never a red card, Atkinson is pathetic and it's strange that a player tapping another on the shin with his toe is a sending off but breaking another players leg isn't, utter, utter bastard.

Parky Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Tiote tends to get a bit childish and self-centered in games. He is great at imposing himself on the other side but this is often undercut by his rash tackling. He has all the makings of a good player but he will never become consistently good till he cuts out the silly stuff, of which I see no signs. His overall mental state in games is questionable ie holding onto the ball in tight situations with players around him which again leads to dangerous situations for us. On his day he is great but when his mind isn't right he's a complete liability. Pardew needs to take him aside a bit more. Could be a very good DM (not a complete one as his passing isn't good enough) but does he want it enough? 25 yellows in 50 games is unprofessional whichever way you look at it.
