Sifu Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 The Fair Play League is an absolute joke, it's as simple as that. The way they calculate it makes no sense and the way it basically favours the big teams (who constantly whinge at/surround the referee when a decision goes against them) is quite frankly ridiculous. Pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 It makes absolutely no sense. How we can be classed as the most 'unfair' team in the PL is beyond me. Stupid tables based on bullshit 'stats', including referees' opinions is one thing. The fact that it can give a team European qualification is just ridiculous.

Parky Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Lack of positive play/intentions is part of it. Million passes back to Krul and so on... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I'm happy with our style of play, it's a piss take that it gets brought into whether you could get in Europe or not. If that's the case, shouldn't they have kicked Stoke the fuck out of the Europa League by now ffs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
