Alan Medic Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 That was when he was banished to the reserves who played in that LC tie. Actually Stan Collymore refused to play for Liverpool reserves too when he was there. But Tevez was on the bench so his case is somewhat different. It's hard to know what Tevez really wants. He knows he can't move anywhere yet, he's earning a good salary, what's wrong with playing a bit of football too? He may not like Mancini but heck it's his job and you don't have to like the boss. The money should be compensation enough. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/18997-football-focus/page/356/#findComment-489627 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jah Lush Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 It's a happy Monday knowing you beat the Arse the day before.By the way the Rodwell sending off has surely got to be overturned.

Parkdrive Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I believe not just the Rodwell decsion to be wrong, Van der Vaart clearly handled the ball to score Tottenhams first goal but none of the officials gave it. The decsion to disallow Wolves a perfectly legitimate goal was also questionable to say the least. Perhaps this will just add fuel to the fire regarding video replays for match officials?

taper Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Isn't it just the purest of pleasures to see the mire Forest are in. And yet the nature of that ghastly club is that they thrive out of adversity. When last the East Midlands Juve had bested them on all fronts, a gobby northener arrived and propelled them within no time to a level beyond all precedent and prediction. Even now, diminished by dipsomania, scandal and malfeasance, they pull in crowds three times that of more deserving clubs north of the Trent. But perhaps this time the times are changing.

And as for video replays I think that could spoil the flow of the game. I'd only go for goal line technology though. Too many times a ball has been clearly over the line and not given.

red devil Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Very debatable, and inconclusive from replays...same applies to the Wolves 'goal' This has been said many times before, these decisions tend to even themselves out over the course of a season. I'd rather keep the flow of the game and rely on the officials to make an honest decision at the time. However, if like Mr Atkinson they make an obvious howler, they should show some accountability and issue an apology/explanation of their decision.
