binnsy Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Whether he was shite or not today doesn't disguise the fact that he has been sent off for two of the most harshest yellow cards i have ever seen. The first one was a disgrace bearing in mind the ref had his back to the play and didn't see it and has just seen the Brighton player on the deck and pulled out a yellow card and the 2nd is never a booking its just a foul and get on with the game, although bearing in mind he was on a yellow he should not have went in to make the challenge anyway.

Skeletor Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 He was sent off? Get in! Made my day. Didn't watch it when I saw him and his equally useless brother on the team sheet. 2 yellows rather than violent conduct though sadly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 he was an absolute disgrace today. Despite playing a lower league team and having young players on our team he was by far the worst player on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novocastrian Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I feel sorry for him in a way. When he was being used sparingly he was effective; looked fresh, strong and interested and was a real asset for 15-20 minutes. He'd started to win the fans over after all of these years. His ineptitude recently is making the fans turn on him again. I blame Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 And the other useless managers who kept him here. I almost wish we'd kept Allardyce just so this cunt would be in the lower leagues where he belongs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Fuck off shola you useless mess. I'm avsolutely sick of his utterly woeful performances. It may not be his fault he's playing so much but fuck him anyway. He's sadly also plagued his brother with turderculosis n all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
durhamunigeordie Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Pathetic today. Haven't seen either booking on TV, but him going off helped us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I've always defended him, and I'll stand up and say the last 2 matches from him have been the last draw for me. Today was a disgrace - even though the ref made a horrible call on giving him another yellow, getting sent off was fucking disgraceful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghandis Flip-Flop Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 To be fair it's the manager who should be aware after watching the lad for two years now that he can be effective for 20 minutes against tiring legs. However he cannot play 90 minutes of football. Shola doesn't pick himself the blame for the fact he's started our last two games has to lie with Pardew.

Chris_R Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 It's hard to actually dislike Shola because he comes across as a nice chap who is just playing for the club he supports, actually living the dream that all of us have. The problem is, he's about as good as most of us would be. Fucking terrible footballer 95% of the time. Immobile, slow, ponderous. That said, Pele would have looked crap today. The service, if you can even call it that, was non-existant and you can't expect anything of a striker if there's no balls being put into the box for him to attack. Shola's job today as the main striker was to convert chances, not create them from nothing. He wasn't given any chances to put away, so I find it hard to make him a scapegoat for today's gutless performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it's fair to say that our problems run a lot deeper than Shola being at the apex of our frontline. Yes, Shola is sub-standard. There's no doubting that at all. But with a decent supply he could have caused some problems to Brighton today. However we ended up with Obertan and Sammy Ameobi on the wrong wings trying to create things, and a midfield where Abeid did virtually nothing at all. Williamson was terrible again, and our fullbacks never pushed up to support our attacks, perhaps at least in part because there weren't any attacks. We were rotten from front to back today, Shola included, but he wasn't the sole reason we lost or even IMO the main reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Regardless of the performance, his sending off was a travesty because the referee was looking in the wrong direction for the first booking and guessed a yellow card.
