LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Since when does the Ref stop a game for a player to tie their shoe laces? Decent second half performance. It's a shame we don't play like that over 90 minutes. We created a lot of chances compared to recent games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only in kids football do you stop the game from restarting (you dont stop a game for it), thats usually because the ref is the one who ties them back up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Reading the BBC match report makes it sound like 90 minutes of one-way traffic with a consolation goal for the team that wasn't there. Aye, I noticed that. Wondered if it was them being unfair on us or me being a bit over-optimistic about how much we threatened them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 didn't have any bearing on the result but the officiating was shite. warning for K Toure in the first 10mins or so, do it again and you're booked.....30 seconds later, right, do it once more and I really will book you. was defenitly a day of one foul bookings for us while they got away with it all game.

First half Simpson got booked for his first meaningful foul. Second half Zabaleta committed an almost identical foul and there was nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 He let go numerous freekicks from the wrong position, or with a rolling ball etc too, for both sides. At one point he made Anita move the ball back before taking a corner, and yet later in the half Santon took a throw with one foot on the pitch with no issues.

Didn't really work that way last season. precisely but i know what he means. The trick is to now build on that performance and perform with the same intensity next week against QPR but i fear we won't and a frustrating afternoon will ensue. Anyway, back to today. We needed to score first when we were on top in the opening exchanges and didn't. Nasri was well offside in the build up for the 1st goal. The 2nd goal came from a corner that should have been a goal kick as Tevez's shot hit no one. Santon was raped by Nasri before he went off injured and was as poor on the line from the corner as Dyer was in the Nou Camp. Anita switched off and lost Toure (who'd been poor) for the 3rd. Otherwise Hart was the busier keeper and we gave a real good go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely tons of performances last season where we got something we didn't deserve. i'll give you the first 2 but not the latter 2, at wolves we should have been 3 up at half time and they didn't play well, just looked worse as they shouldn't have had an equaliser ruled off. Everton was even but we created the better chances, a draw would've been fair but if either team was going to win, it would've been us. why didn't you meantion mackems (h), villa (a), swnasea (h), could even say chelsea (h). the rest you are thinking of, the fulhams, wigans etc at home we weren't great but deserved the wins. only the QPR game went massivly against what should've happened.

madras Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 another strange ref decision was to give an offside from one of tiotes wayward shots even though none were interfering with play but play on when they have a player in an offside position from a cross.

David Icke - Son of God Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I thought we were very good in the second half. If we can replicate that performance for the rest of the season then we'll beat most sides. Easier said than done that, like. Hats off to Anita and Perch. Absolutely magnificent. Mariner is a cunt, but then he's always been cowed by big sides. Awful referee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
