that maybe. But the fact that they should hsve had a freekick and Gallas off with a red rather thsn a goal against is mainly what they are moaning about. Can you imagine what Wegner would be saying?

The ref on the night was awful. Every decision seemed to go to Bolton. Over the course of a season refs make some shocking decisions last night was no exception.A team is under no obligation to kick the ball out when a man is down especially if the player down is one of the team in possession. We've been on the receiving end of some shocking tackles, Adebayors kick on Van Persies head for example. Bolton chose to play on and we won the ball and scored. Stop crying Coyle, 2 nil and you fcuked it up.

Nice of the Arsenal fans to cheer when Mark Davies was carried off after Gallas's horrendous tackle. That's really sporting of them don't you think? Cunts!


Spurs had a perfectly good goal disallowed and two possible penalty appeals turned down last night which for me changed the course of the game. I thought Howard Webb had a bit of a shocker and showed himself to be a homer. That's the way it goes sometimes.

I thought you were determined to ignore me? I know you can,t bless you. Try not to let the green eyed monster take over your deluded thinking. Rags fans have cheered when opposition players have injured as have scum fans so it's a case of pot calling the kettle black. As if I give a shit about what Rags or a scum fan thinks. The holier than thou mantle is not one either of you can adopt with any credability. Rags losing against citeh, scum losing us winning, it doesn't get any better. Bring it on.

It's a different situation, completely. The ref saw the Eduardo tackle and sent the guy off, action was taken therefore the FA can't act retrospectively. Gallas foul the referee didn't see it, and the rule is if that's the case then the FA can act. This is the bit I don't get.


So there's no consistency - in one case the rules were followed, the other not.

What irks me about the Gallas foul was the thought of how he reacted to the Eduardo injury. Wasn't that the game when he sat on the pitch afterwards and wouldn't come off? A fine example for a captain to set. You would think that he would try not to do to another player what he saw done to his teammate if it upset him so much.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls.
