Pretty much any other CB in the PL gets to that ball first. He's just far too slow at this level.

 

No doubt next time the teams sits deep and we only lose 1-0 to a decent side this thread will be full of empty plaudits again, mind.

Pathological need to be correct.

I think there was a case for a penalty like, he wasn't contending the ball.

 

Yep. Not a red but it's a penalty.

 

The odd thing about the decision is I can see it as a foul because it was late, Eliot was already there to the ref just thinks he's barged over player after play has gone effectively dead. But if that's the case it's not a red cos keeper has it. I think it was a foul cos Colo was too slow to get shoulder to shoulder both competing for the ball possibly but harsh.

Fucking joke decision. Can't blame Colo for that one. He eased the attacker off shoulder to shoulder and the Mackem cunt bought a penalty from a piss-weak referee. If the refs can't get the easy decisions right is it any wonder we give them grief? We might as well do away with defenders altogether because the art of good CB play is dead.

Not really, both players were going for it, Fletcher was 2 yards ahead of him and Elliot had the ball in his hands before he went down.

Nah, having seen that again it's a penalty all day long. Shit, slow, heartless and thick.

 

That much slower than Steven Fletcher ffs. As if this wanker still has fans on here.

How was that heartless exactly?

:lol: It wasn't a penalty though.

 

He gave the ref a decision to make when any half decent player who isn't a wreck would have just dealt with it.

 

It's one of those that doesn't get given more often than not, but it's absolutely shite defending from an absolutely shite defender.

So you've just confirmed what i'm saying. Fletcher had him beat (not by 2 yards like) and he barged him down. The fact Elliott had it covered meant the red was fucking ridiculous but it's hard to complain about the penalty.

It was a massive problem 3 years ago. Now it should rule him out of any Premier League involvement.

You'd think so, wouldn't you? Nah, not at this club. He'll be here in the first eleven until his contract is up so we get our "value for money"
