Theres only one man to blame and his name is Declan. Absolute disgrace from a senior pro
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Shyyte happens. Players get sent off all the time.

What you don't do as a manager is sit on your ārse and wait until your side concedes a goal 10 minutes later before finally making a tactical sub.

Not sure what else Arteta could have done

So why wasn't the Brighton player booked when he obviously smashed the ball 30 yards after dribbling it out of play?

The referee was clearly biased. You can let him get away with it by saying it was justified though.

Have you lot ever not blamed the ref for a loss? Your not allowed to kick the ball away and Rice was correctly carded
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So you think the red card is right here?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes and I have no axe to grind or bias, if Declan had simply left the ball alone no card mate? Do I hate those kinda calls? Again yes but he's smart enough to have known not to do it
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The ball wasn't dead and it's coming up behind him, that's not kicking it away

You're normally a fair guy but don't come onto another teams match thread to chat shiiit

If you punish this one consequently no game ends with 11-11

Just obviously not a second yellow, it's another example of something that only happens to us

Think Martinelli getting two yellows for the same passage of play

Fair enough but I dont honestly believe I am here, Declan just gives it a wee touch, If my opinion counted I would have just let it go as a ref but this ref didn't, I also felt the ref had a poot match overall but thats another matter

Absolutely, I think consistency with refs is sadly lacking

He'd just lost a key central midfielder. That calls for an instant tactical sub.

Doesn't even have to be in that particular position. We were under the cosh. I'd just get the fourth official to raise his board and disrupt the flow of the game for the sake of it.

Exactly. Rodri does not get a yellow there, for example.

Then the worst part is our own fans justifying this utter crap. The ref has completely changed the game for...what? A tiny little kick away? And he's suspended for the next game so he's influenced that too.

Yeah we deserved to lose home to Villa and away to Fulham, nothing to do with ref in those games and a few champions league games last season too and the cup ones as well. Not many players get booked for kicking the ball away especially if it is only a few feet!

I'm happy to disagree but I genuinely don't have bias especially on other teams match threads or you get kicked off and I enjoy the football chatter this is a difference of opinion honestly not me having a dig or a win

Indeed, I will agree when I see it happen with no card in other matches, I don't think refs are NEAR good enough and the biggest gripe I have is lack of consistency , I will no doubt see it over the weekend but it wasn't me trying to wum or have a dig mate

All rice did was push the ball clear of his path - the ref must have been watching VERY closely - even to see it

He should have backed off it was a dumb thing to do

I thought it was a yellow against rice, lol 😂
How did the ref see that?

Cos he wanted to I guess. I'm not even sure Rice was trying to kick it away, ball just rolls into him and he taps it back. No way of knowing Veltman would be trying to take the free kick cos his back is to him and the ball is rolling and would have had to be retaken anyway.

It should have been a red to the Brighton player. Absolute shocking call.
