Anderson Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Thought Webb was canny shocking the other night too, obviously the result papered over that. There was nothing major (well penalty aside, but that hardly mattered in the end ), but the amount of silly little decisions that went their way was ridiculous.

Aye, remember a few strange high feet decisions where it was six of one and half a dozen of another yet they got the freekick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Yesterday the Blackburn keeper was booked for remonstrating briefly about a Newcastle player being offside. On Wednesday evening Wayne Rooney was almost contantly in Howard Webb's face telling him what to do and after Newcastles first goal had a concerted and prolonged attack at the referee right up until the game kicked off again. He was not booked as were no other Man U players who repeatedly behaved the same way. It looks like Rooney again today offered "advice" to the ref before Kompany was sent off. What is the special reletionshio between Manchester United and officials ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leffe186 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I wouldn't mind if the ref had even seen it as a foul. He was playing on until Rooney got in his face. You see, this is what bugs me about Foy. You could see why he showed a red - although I think he was wrong - but he seems to be influenced by outside factors too much. I'm still livid about the Spurs match because it was a systematic favouring of one team over another. /stillbitter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

newsted Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I thought it was a blatant red card. Aye, similar challenge to the one by De Jong that broke Ben Arfa's leg - off the ground, two footed, scissor motion. Straight red. Yes, had to explain it to the bairn earlier how horrible it is getting hit with one of them. Couldn't find a reason how the de Jong one wasn't even a free kick like, just had to say the ref didn't see it (cos he brought it up). Hate lying to cover up for idiots, but kids need answers and rules. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 The fact that he managed to get the ball and didn't get the man isn't the point at issue. (though I think if Nani hadn't jumped out of the way, he would have got him) He jumped into the tackle with two feet - that's considered dangerous and it's a red.

(though I think if Nani hadn't jumped out of the way, he would have got him) He jumped into the tackle with two feet - that's considered dangerous and it's a red. There was nothing about the tackle that was dangerous. These things should be judged on the merit of each individual incident, not a series of tickboxes about two feet, off the ground, from behind - the rules don't say anything about any of those things. The rules only say that a red card can be given for "serious foul play". Kompany's tackle could, in no way, be considered to fit that description imo.

Neil Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 It was a fucking horrendous decision, on a par with Rodwell's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 His trailing leg was never in a position to cause serious harm to Nani, therefore it was not a proper 'two footed challenge' and therefore not a red. Or a yellow. Or a foul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 If they appeal, it will not be rescinded, unlike Rodwell's. I've lost count of the number of times refs have explained this. It's the style and technique of the tackle that's key, not the end product. He jumped into the tackle with both feet, studs first. The fact that Nani jumped out of the way and only one foot got the ball is not the point. And incidentally, his other leg wasn't 'trailing', it was parallel.

Mowen Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 To stick up for the ref in this one...I know I'm in a fairly small minority but I have no problem with that being a red. Once both the feet are in the air and facing forwards you have utterly no control over what you're doing and could cause a huge amount of damage, particularly with someone running full pelt at you. It was reckless and dangerous and as far as I'm concerned he shouldn't be winning any appeal. I must admit I'm in an almost uniquely sensitive state about challenges that have the potential to break a leg at the moment mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
