Skeletor Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Keown just condoned 'getting around the referee and complaining, being together as a group'. Says it all. He didn't even sound convincing when he tried to say Mitrovic should have been sent off. Just reading the script. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 So a summary on MOTD... Martin Keown asks players to surround the referee asking for yellow cards Thauvin "reduced" Coquelin by slightly tapping his foot, resulting in Coquelin jumping 5 foot in the air and rolling around six times No footage of Sanchez repeatedly asking the ref for yellow cards Footage of one yellow card (Sissoko) and one red card (Mitro) which were nearly identical Apparently two fouls causes referees to become "fed up" and book the entire team Arsenal are too soft and should not allow teams to kick them around the field Wow. Absolute wow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 That Thauvin tackle didn't even touch him until he'd practically come to a stand still and then barely touched his ankle, he jumped in the air like someone had just bowled him over with a cannonball at 200mph. But yeah it was a "reducer" fuck off! I see they showed nome of the Arsenal fouls and nothing was said about the paper legs on show in the Arsenal team. Like fuck that was a red, but we were never going to gain favour against one of the "big 4". If you really want to make your blood boil you should read the Mirror's match report, another biased load of shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimbo Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I don't know if I want my players to act the way Arsenal's did, but there's no benefit to not diving around it seems, the country has accepted this shit. Even big defenders from the 90s think it's cool for players to roll around screaming because they've been tapped. Depressing stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 We are constantly being told that referee's need to be respected. All guess what, it's about time they respected themselves. There is no need to give a ferric to players who dive, in fact start booking them. Stop licking the arse of the top clubs, tell players who surround you to go away, book them if you have too. Like anything in life, have some self respect and dignity and you'll earn respect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I cannot believe I've just seen an ex-pro actively encouraging players to surround referees and ask for cards to be given. Astonishing. It's a fucking outrage if you ask me. Kids watch this programme and there's someone there basically saying such cuntish and disrespectful behaviour towards officials is the right thing to do. I know we're all moaning about Marriner today but in general the lack of respect towards officials in football (particularly at the top level) is a massive problem with the game.

Including trying to con and influence them at every opportunity, instead of just accepting the decision. It's a problem they have created though Dave. We keep saying they deserve respect, no they don't. They have allowed players to start diving, they have allowed players to come at them shouting and screaming, they don't tell them to go away and they don't show them the card. What are we as fans supposed to do?, what are anyone supposed to do? Ok I get at the lower level of football where a referee or official has no support and limited amounts of safety it's a problem, but in professional football where every move is on a number of camera's, where there is plenty of security etc there is no need to fear or be intimidated by them. Not only that but they laugh and chuckle about the incident to the team they have given the dodgy decision too, where as the other team are left there looking baffled. They have the ability to watch every player before they referee them, they know Terry will shout in their face with a 90% chance of spit hitting them, they know Young will take a dive either just outside the box or in it, yet they give the decisions in favour of the same players and same clubs.

The two words that he said to the ref... worthy of a yellow. Not like Arsenal though, that's different. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already said why they're not able to do it, the instructions come from above. As ever, it's a knock-on problem from far too much money swilling around the sport.
