Last season at Stoke, they were robbed.

This season at Fulham, if Walker is seen playing goalkeeper, he's off, it's a pen and they likely go on to win.

Last week at Bolton, Cahill gets sent off for a stonewall yellow card offence and it kills the game.

Lets all have a little cry about how hard done by we are. :violin:

Stoke's 'goal' last season was rightly disallowed because of a foul given in the build up.

Walker was lucky, yes, but even if they score the resulting penalty, it's 2-2 with about 10 minutes left.

Cahill shouldn't have been sent off.

All those were single incidents. Not four penalties, a wrongly disallowed goal, a handball missed for a goal, a harsh red card and an opposition player not sent off when they should have been.

Decisions this season have been particularly favorable towards us, it was only a matter of time before a couple would go against us.

Frankly, we could have defended better and made more chances.

Mate, I agree that we have had our own luck recently. You can expect one or possibly two decisions to go against you but not four or five. It seemed like blatant cheating.

As for the Cahill red, I don't think it would have changed the result.

And you can't guarantee that a change in decision would've resulted in a win either.

A couple, yes, but 6? I think someone counted 6 mistakes today in another thread. That's more than made up for the luck we've got.

See where you are coming from but today that was something else! Couldn't quite believe what I was watching to be honest. The worst refereeing performance i have ever ever seen.

Stoke weren't robbed it was a legitimate foul

Walker was actually pushed to the ground by Dempsey which was a foul, that was never handball/a pen for anyone with any common sense.

Cahill decision was poor but nobody can ever say it did or didn't change the game.

Its funny before this game I noticed we hadn't had a red and thought we've had a few good decisions all turned around today.

Still I think that we have had so many bad decisions over the years by your logic we actually should be quite boo hoo.

And also we are not talking 1/2 decision here the referee got a hell of a lot wrong, the only thing he really got right was the pen and I think Stevie Wonder could have given that.

This wasn't one iffy or unlucky decision against us making up for any luck we got at Fulham, that's a complete bull shit way to look at it.

You wouldn't know where to begin with the mess Foy created today, a truly shocking referring performance.

What shit reffing. Shawcroft should have been sent off way before Kaboul was, the player Kaboul tackled for his second yellow was off-side in that play, the hand ball and off-side for Ade's goal was blatantly against us.

Complete load of shit reffing.

Was poor refereeing in the end but we were crap in that first 25 minutes.

The game can be summed up in one word - ****

That goes for the Stoke players, the fans, and the ref.

****s.

I'm sorry but there cannot be an argument for 'we got that one last week' etc etc to excuse that absolutely corrupt performance by C..T Foy today. Harry was right IMO, looking at him, he seemed to enjoy giving decisions against us today.

I honestly thought he was bent, truly awful show. Worse than the players, many of whom seemed intimidated by Stoke or just weren't at their usual level

Doesn't matter about Walker/Cahill decisions, when watching today's game you want today's decisions to be right regardless of who they are for. And they weren't simple as.

Worst performance by a referee-ing team against us I've ever seen... and there have been a few down the years.
Chris Foy seemed to have it in for us from very early in the game, pretty sure I saw him telling Bale and VDV in the first half to "f*** off and get on with it" when they questioned his decision, and it just seemed to get worse from there. Not saying there was any foul play involved but he seemed to have some sort of agenda with our players and/or our club as a whole.
Maybe I'm reading too much into it....

Generally I agree with the point Kendall makes, but today was something else, an utter catastrophic display of wank officiating.

Luck will even itself out, maybe it just has with a few generous decisions in our favour, but I'm still going to feel pretty fucking annoyed with this result for a good while.

Bring back Narnill. Kendall the WUM ain't funny.

I ain't actually wumming. I actually find it laughable that Spurs fans can complain about refereeing decisions this season.

In addition, I don't see how we can bleat that were robbed of a victory, when we let in 2 goals at Stoke.

We lost because we let goals in.

And Narnill is very upset with her ban, not even allowed to pat her fanny for week.
