A Joe Jordon yell is probably more painful than a kick in the nuts from many others so you have a point.

The relegation battle is as exciting as the one at the other end...if not more so. There's at least 10 teams who can still go down really.

Johnny Evans - red card?...discuss;
I think no gashed knee - no red, and either player could've got injured in the challenge. very unfortunate as there was no intent but studs definately up. So probably the correct call.

Penalty?...discuss;
I don't hear the Man Utd haters making jokes about refs on the payroll now. That is probably the most definate stonewall penalty that's not been given all season. It was for United at OT too!!!!  Deliberate? Debatable. Arm in a natural position? absofuckinlutely not! No other decision than a penalty.


I didn't even watch Chelski v Shitty...two boring teams with Italian managers so I figured I can watch Serie A anytime really. Probably a good result for United but I was hoping they'd both lose.  :-\

It was the correct call, but it was nowhere near as bad as Carragher's tackle on Nani.  Jonny was bit unlucky as the ball helped raise his studs, but unlike Carragher, he at least got the ball.  I would like a little more consistency in the officiating - both should have seen red in my eyes.

Agreed.  Even the announcers were defending it, but that ball was heading for the net and his raised arm deflected it away from the net.  We're not talking about an arm on the side of a body here - that was clearly a raised arm.

They know who they are, and the  jealousy is just eating them up.

Scumbag Terry reinstated as England captain...discuss;

Personally I don't give a rats how or what the England team does until the Italian idiot is gone. that was the last straw for me. I'm starting a one man campaign to get 'Arry Rednap' as the new gaffer. Political correctness caused England to miss out on probably the best candidate ever as England manager years ago. (Brian Clough) and it's been a disaster ever since.

How can you take away the armband, 'permanently' as he said himself, only to reinstate him a year later, then hope to retain some kind of credibility? The fact the team are saying there's no divide in the camp means there is a huge divide within the England camp.

I was hoping Wales would beat us on Saturday to expedite Capellos departure but Bale is out so that is very unlikely I'm afraid.
