VillaRoy Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 9 fouls a piece for both team, yet we have 6 yellows, they have 1, a wee bit bullshit. We been super in the first half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andym Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 cant complain with our bookings, stupid, petulant challenges by players who should know better. however, they should have more than 1 player booked, and can petrov or downing please get a shot from the edge of the box that isnt blocked or miles off target. petrov takes a **** age to pull the trigger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laivasse Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I'd echo claret75, every single yellow is justified so far (apart from Friedel where we don't know what was said). No point deluding ourselves. So Friedel's booking for mouthing off to the referee isn't justified, but Collin's booking for mouthing off at the referee is? For me only Petrov and Ferreira should have been booked in that first half.It's unclear whether Collins was booked for his challenge or his dissent or a combination of both. You're nuts if you don't think Clark should have been booked for his two wild challenges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry'sboots Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Everything else aside...what is the difference today, who is this team playing for? Even the so called trouble maker Dunne has fight in him, wonder whats changed. Maybe they've grown up. It might also help that they have seen some of the places that they could end up if shipped out? Dunne and Ireland to the SPL. Warnock back to Blackburn. Etc. This should make them think that this could be their last chance with a reasonably big club in a top league? And maybe there is a little professional pride at last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theunderstudy Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 We need to 1) Win 2) Keep XI on the pitch 3) Injure Cole and Terry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 The ref is doing everything to help Chelsea. Gave Chelsea a soft penatly and then continuously books our players. Come on!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Reo-Coker has been excellent, so has Heskey. Yellow cards wise, Ramires, Essien should have yellows for Chelsea. Reo-Coker and Gabby's I thought were harsh. Collins, can't go into the ref. Petrov's was a dirty challenge, Clark, the second tackle was a booking. Can't remember the other one??

We are complaining that our players have been booked for things Chelsea players are being allowed to get away with (see Essien foul on Young, their right back on Young, Terry and his dissent and so on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WooJung Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Collins is a madman and he should be tied up. Stupidest way of coceding a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me only Petrov and Ferreira should have been booked in that first half. We've done well and being level is the least we deserve - but I really can't see us seeing this game out with eleven on the field. If he was refereeing it in an even way, then they'd have four or five on bookings too and he'd just be being ridiculous - as it is, he's only being ridiculous in one direction. Chelsea should have had a couple more booked, but all of ours were fair enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildwood Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I'm putting off a sausage sandwich because I'm so pumped up now for the second half... maybe that'll change when Petrov decides it's his bedtime on the 60th minute.

paddy Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 2) Keep XI on the pitch I'll be very surprised if we have 11 on at the end the way it's going. Seems highly unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaInGreece Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Can't believe that David Pleat commentating on ESPN complimented the ref on consistency in his decisions!!! What the ****??
