Foy yesterday failed to award penalties that had it been Man Utd benefiting would have been awarded like a shot.
How Spurs were not awarded a penalty when the Sunderland players arm moved towards the ball is puzzling.
This is a huge difference between success and failure.
I rest my case lol.
A Man Utd penalty awarded for a non existant foul which was offside and should have been a free kick to QPR.
Why dont Spurs ever get this sort of favourtism.
"Why dont Spurs ever get this sort of favourtism."
If twas offered, would you really want it ??
I was so proud of Spurs at Stoke, try to win the game in spite of the ref, and without dissent antics.

North London derby
As for the handball yesterday, I would argue Scott Parker got away with an equal incident.

Because you are an insignificantly small club in the overall scheme of things
What a ridiculously stupid article . . . . those grapes are obviously 'off' so stop eating them, 'geniusgreaves'
Wow! Its taken nearly a day for one the very few Sunderland supporters to respond. It is not sour grapes, how do you work that out? I only used one incident from the Sunderland game to prove a point.
However now you have joined in, are you really happy to see a HOME team set up to play all 11 players inside their own half for 85% of the game?
For O'Neill to use the excuse that Spurs have more resources and money is totally rubbish, you set up exactly the same way against both Everton & QPR and neither of these clubs have had money spent on them.
No, Sunderland set out their stall to frustrate us and it blatantly worked, so thats fair enough a point deserved. However I would not pay to go and watch that week in and week out, especially when there is a more exciting team just up the road on Tyneside.
We were rubbish too, but at least we tried to attack and had some efforts to score.
One incident, eh . . . . he can't count
85% of the game . . . . he's innumerate
Fair point
Idiocy at it's best
Illiterate, too, unless he's been blinded by rose tinted spectacles and obviously didn't read ( or understand ) an earlier post pointing out that Sunderland had more chances and corners than 'Spurs ( no, it can't be that )
All in all, a ridiculously stupid response, which is consistent with the aforementioned ridiculously stupid article
Anyway, I hope that 'Spurs win the F.A. Cup next month, beating Chelsea and Everton to do so
Gordon......................You might have had more shots & corners which was only because we don't play 11 behind the ball for the majority of a match, this still doesn't negate the fact that you defended for the vast majority of the match.
As for the one point, it was about cheating and stealing 8-10 yards when the referees back is turned.
I know football is a passion in Sunderland (I was fortunate enough to play once at Roker Park back in the late 60's..........) however I do not think many fans will enjoy too much negative football for too long, do you? Or have I got that wrong too?
Thanks for the good wishes and I hope Sunderland get back to playing good football because the fans deserve that at least.
You're sounding very bitter and we don't see very much negative football at all ( did you watch us at the City of Manchester Stadium ( Etihad sounds stupid, to me, and the whole sponsorship situation is a con ) where we attacked throughout ). Horses for courses, according to Martin O'Neill, I think and if he decides to play more negatively against 'Spurs than against 'City that's fine by me . . . . and it's a compliment to your team, who play much more attractive football than 'City, too
I was once sent off at Roker Park in the 70's and I'm proud of it
. . . . late 70's but I can't remember the year
Good claim to fame I did get booked at Villa Park in 1966 in the Central League!
Not really bitter, but I do like to watch good football & neither team served that up on Saturday. I must admit I thought you played well at City & should have won.
