Phube Posted 21 October 2007 Posted 21 October 2007 Everton vs Liverpool: Everton denied two blatant penalties, player sent off at the behest of Gerrard! Scunny vs Leicester: Hume sent off for jumping! Norbo goal disallowed for no reason!! England vs S. Africa: It WAS a try (no matter what you say Finnegan!!!), bloody southern hemisphere sticking together!!! I only really cared abut Leiceter... but the other ones were just as frustrating!!!
dandannieldanok Posted 21 October 2007 Posted 21 October 2007 Mark Clattenburg is the most inept, pathetic, diabolical excuse for a referee. We all saw that last year down at the Walkers. I only listened to the Leicester game on RL, plus saw brief highlights, and the ref sounded an absolute cock, Hume should have been given a final warning not a red card. And don't get me started on the bloody Aussie TMO, what a willy puller. Also the pitch referee was crap too, missing two clear obstructions by SA and somehow managing to spot the Moody trip.
Simi Posted 21 October 2007 Posted 21 October 2007 Can't wait for him to be thrown down into the Championship, where less people will recognize him right? Tossers.
Floating Fox Posted 21 October 2007 Posted 21 October 2007 Don't forget Styles off that list. Can't see why people are moaning about the Thugby though... His foot was clearly on the line from the video. I guess it's becasue half the people who watched it don't have a fcking clue about the sport & just jumped on the latest bandwagon

I guess it's becasue half the people who watched it don't have a fcking clue about the sport & just jumped on the latest bandwagon Its not on the line from what I could see, but my first instinct was "in touch". I was the only person not cheering. I thought his foot touched the floor way in touch, bounced up again, and then the ball touched the ground, which would make him in touch even if he wasn't in touch the instant the try was scored.

Indeed. Thus the decision to disallow the try was correct. However there were a few decisions in the game that did look a little dubious and didn't go in our favour. Ultimately, though, SA won because they were the better team on the night, simple as..
Geo V Posted 22 October 2007 Posted 22 October 2007 There have been some dodgy decisions over the last days thats for sure. Bastard officials are clueless!

Norbo goal disallowed for no reason!! England vs S. Africa: It WAS a try (no matter what you say Finnegan!!!), bloody southern hemisphere sticking together!!! I only really cared abut Leiceter... but the other ones were just as frustrating!!! Agree on first two points and this should call for video technology and a video referee like rugby. On the third point it was the correct decision and the referee was Irish and NOT from the Southern Hemisphere, in fact he played for Moseley Rugby Club!
Alexikokopops Posted 22 October 2007 Posted 22 October 2007 England vs S. Africa: It WAS a try (no matter what you say Finnegan!!!), bloody southern hemisphere sticking together!!! How was the Southern Hemisphere sticking together? Last time I checked Ireland was pretty close to us actually.
