Every time Kevin Friend refs any of our games the result is usually a shocker! i cant believe that match. ive never seen such an unfairly reffed game in my life
firstly im not gonna make excuses for our inability to score even if i am very frustrated about that too, although im not that concerned because we are playing very well we just need to be more clinical (how i miss torres)
it also appears that lucas and gerrards absences is taking its toll already! i mean you know theres issues when a mere combo of dembele and dempsey are made to look like david silva and modric. But what i cant seem to digest is the fact that:
all the minor 50/50's went fulhams way
it was a blatant penalty when adam got fouled ... how the heck was that a free kick
when we did actually score, it was offside WTF!!!? linesman turns a blind eye once again! can somebody please explain to me how THIS >> http://twitpic.com/7oyscx << is offside
and to top it off, spearing was sent off. i mean come on, how an earth was that a sending off offence i will never know
its the same old story for us every single time! Overall, it was a poorly reffed game!
Ref was poor

"Bit again one that most clubs accept happen and don't have a hissy fit claiming the ref supports the other side"

listen i do not mind other fans commenting at all BUT PLEASE KEEP ON TOPIC!
"The reason we have dominated English football for the last 2 decades is because WE HAVE BEEN BY FAR THE BEST TEAM over that period, just as you were for 15+ years before that.
So grow up, grow a pair, accept the "fahkts", and accept that Dalglish was out of management for over a decade for good reason i.e. he wasn't all that good then and isn't now!!"
what an earth has that got to do with the referee having a howler?
as i thought .... NOTHING!

Is this a joke?
It wasn't a penalty, and have a look at this pic and tell me it wasn't a sending off, whether he got the ball or not.

Two feet off the ground and into Dembele's leg.
You red-specs idiots do my nut in

anyone can take a pic of a foul. i could easily get a pic of a clean tackle that looks even worse, spearing won the ball. red was too harsh

ghost, my point was that if you were flying high atop English football then you wouldn't care so much about the odd "maybe questionable" decision" by a ref, you'd be too busy winning trophies.
But now that you're basically also-rans for the Europa Cup spot, that you didn't even qualify for last season and aren't in position to even now, every point is precious, as you desperately try and cling to glories past.

The goal was disallowed because the linesman flagged offside, again correctly.

well you must be blind then. football fans are truely a fickle bunch. had that happend to your team & my moneys on you saying the total opposite.
Funny how the immediate response of yours to someone who has a different viewpoint is to insult them..............................I have played at a very good level & was also a Class 1 referee in the Conference, my eyesight is still perfect and I reiterate the first point of contact on Adam occured OUTSIDE the area, the Suarez offside was tight but I think the linesman called it correctly.
As for the Bellamy booking, the guy had been shouting and swearing at the referee a number of times during the game & I think you have to look at who approached who in the initial confrontation!
All teams get decisions that go against them, classics for Spurs have been the "goal" at Old Trafford that was 3 feet over the line and not given, the incident last year against Chelsea when a goal was given against us that replays showed had not crossed the line.
I initially thought that the Cahill sending off at WHL was harsh, however after watching several replays it is obvious that a CLEAR goal scoring opportunity would have been on for Spurs, because although Parker might not have scored himself, it was two versus one with Defoe unmarked and free.
However I don't whinge and whine and blame the referee, no they are not perfect, but then neither are we!
I would look at the failure of the players, and the fact they did not put the ball in the back of the net despite dominating possession.
That was Spurs big failure last season................................

You mean like at the hawthorns where you got a 'debatable' penalty?
It happens all the time, most fans accept decisions go for and against you, that's football fgs

Baggiesfan.........................................You are right and I thought at the time you were unlucky with the decision.
