Chimbonda should have walked for his hand ball. I am fairly certain he also waved his hand at it when he was in the box marking ashton. Chimbonda is going to get sent off soon surely, he is always moaning and pushing the oposition out the way. Passion or just being a cock? im not sure.

Wham were going in very hard and the ref needed to have a word with most of their players.

Yep. Seven yellow cards, should have been at least 3 red's as well. Cole, Green and Chimbonda should have all been sent off at various times in the match. Very untidy refereeing in a very untidy match.

Another silly post. Apart from the penalty decision when Keano was peed off when did we intimidate the ref? Even on the penalty decision we didn't go overboard.

Have to say that I did notice us being a bit more aggro towards the ref today. Not sure 'overboard' is quite it, but we were certainly more forceful. As well as Keane, Kaboul and Chimbonda went up to him a few times. Something Ramos has encouraged? It jars a bit, but then plenty of people on here used to say we were a soft touch under Jol and maybe we should make more noise when things didn't go our way?

Firstly it must be said that robbie always argues with the ref whenever he thinks a dissisoin goes against him.

Secondly I would of punched the ref at the riddiculas dission the ref made.

Thirdly I think it is a good thing because it shows great passion

and BTW Chrissivald, you should watch the replay more!

When Defoe ran into the box and neil pulled his shirt and took his legs from under him whilst at no time getting near the ball how is that not a penalty?

West Ham played that game all match not really violent but always physical and they went beyond legal, if that decision had been given in the middle of the park nobody would have complained.

Definite penalty as was Cole's blatant handball.
3 definite pen's only one given.
