Any of you clever tech heads able to provide one of those little snippets of the goal would make a little shep happy, please. 

Would have linked to my vid but Facebook blocked it for copyright

What is the Ref doing?? Missed the penalty. Now gives Gray the yellow for paying respects to the boss??

We cannot blame Probert for that. It's the letter of the law and he had to do it, you could see he didn't want to but he will face repercussions if he does not. With the way the rules are probert could easily end up getting removed from matches in future if he purposely disobeys the rules which affects his job. A yellow to Gray really does not. 

Rubbish. He’s a daft cnvt

good lad gray.

 

he's played well today and deserved that.

 

not sure what people are moaning about tbh - we've played just fine and even more so considering the circumstances. 

 

let's get another and put this shit to bed

Who's moaning?  Not seen any moaning apart from at the ref!

Darren Deadman?!  We know he would have given a yellow if it was a Leicester player! LOL

Refs don't understand emotions

[Suzie the Fox]

The site of the crowd and the flags being held up and the singing, will be the 12th man. 

[lifted*fox]

no excuses for probert I'm afraid - other refs have ignored the same under similar circumstances

 

you can tell he's has gone out there with the mind-set today to give us no special treatment as to appear the model professional referee - he's actually just making himself look a model twat.

I’m probably the only one who noticed but leading up to the goal that was the first time Albrighton appeared on the left and Gray on the right.

The point is he made a massive mistake with the penalty.  And yet that will go completely unpunished and he will not have to explain himself.  Given that how could he be punished for not giving a yellow under these circumstances and yet get off scot free for some tragic referring in general so far.  I get your point but he should have used his discretion there, I am sure any panel would have understood.  X

Was the ref that didn't book Billy Sharp for the tribute shirt after his kid died reprimanded? It's not as if there's not precedence

Fair point on reflection, I forgot all about the Billy Sharp tribute.

[Raw Dykes]

It's a poxy rule, anyway. It's only implemented because the sponsor isn't visible on the back pages.

Not enough people realize just how great Ben Chilwell is playing right now.  He's better than good - he's superb.  Pole-to-pole.

Grays better on the right and Albrightons better on the left imo

Vichai would be proud

I never realized that was the reason, though I suppose it is obvious. Pathetic.

[stripeyfox]

Ref proving why refs have no friends....

 

[lgfualol]

It's a stupid rule anyway.

Agree.

 

If he is worried, he should be more worried about missing the penalty!

I got to say the fans are really do as proud. Love to see the fact that they are all standing together in harmony. Great to see.
