Out Foxed Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Anyone who thought that Henry challenge was just a booking must have the same eyesight as George Boyd
Danno Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Typical Henry, no technical ability apart from injuring people, he's crap, can't be having rubbish like him.
Manwell Pablo Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 It was studs up and high and at speed IMO. Nowhere near the ball. Not denying that. Still not a straight red.
Borderfox Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 When you consider the millions of pounds at stake for the clubs and players careers refs have to be given help. An official watching automatic replays in contact with the ref in charge of the game would soon sort out the mess that exists at the moment. Mistakes like those tonight would in the main be avoided.
MIAMI_FOX Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 It won't be the lastt ime we get shocking decisions! Oh well, we won 3 points job done tonight!
Yojoe36 Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Was he watching the same game tonight? Handballs left right and centre from both teams, our players getting leg-breaker tackles, Knockaert almost killed in the box. If Matt Mills ran on as an extra man and slam-dunked the ball into the net, the ref would give offside. What a tosser.
topharry123 Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 It's good to see a thread like this when we won for once !! He had a shocker. At least 1 penalty, a red card, a clean foul which almost led to a goal, am I right in thinking a handball in the leadup to their goal as well? One of the worst displays i've seen for a long time, but glad we came through it !!
Saxondale Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 He missed almost everything, but, to be fair, it's better than those clowns who make rash decisions all the time.
acooling08 Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Didn't seen to understand the handball rule. Also missed the blatant penalty on Knockaert at 1-0. One of the worst refs ever, up there with Gavin Ward and Darren Deadman. Massive overstatement. I don't think you remember just how bad Ward was.
kingfox Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Massive overstatement. I don't think you remember just how bad Ward was. I do. But today was like a game of basketball at times, Henry's tackle was dirty, Knockaert got knocked flying with that attempted overhead kick Shocking referring.
deep blue Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Not really a red card is it, it's late and a bit high. It's a booking. Agree with that - not a malicious tackle,just a bit rash. It's a sad comment on current refereeing standards to think that had Kingy made a meal of it then the ref might have changed his opinion of it. Most other criticisms I agree with though; the push in Knocky's back was a blatant foul (how could the ref not see it?) and Knocky didn't milk it at all.
Bert Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 He was poor. I'm sure he's the same one that replaced the injured ref we had at Birmingham when Mills was sent off.
Bert Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Not really a red card is it, it's late and a bit high. It's a booking. I've seen players sent off for much less
pazzerfox Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Not really a red card is it, it's late and a bit high. It's a booking. A bit high!! Could have broken his leg and had not intention of getting the ball. He used 'excessive force' which the rules state is a red card. Most blatant red I've seen.
Libertine Dream Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 He was one that sent Balckstock off for Forest against Derby and proceeded to books Forest players for complaining about time wasting. That was a terrible game which he had no control over
Manwell Pablo Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 I've seen players sent off for much less I've seen players get away with much worse....not really the point is it. He's made a genuine attempt to play a bouncing ball, being slightly blown out of proportion on here, for a change.
deep blue Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 The most important thing is that we had bad refereeing decisions but rose above them and got the win. Earlier in the season we'd have lost that match because the bad decisions would have affected our mentality and performance. Hopefully we are getting mentally stronger as a unit.

Manwell Pablo Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 I've seen players sent off for much less There couldn't have been many arguments of it was a red. You had a drink? You've lost me here, are you saying not many people on here have argued that it was a red, or are you saying that there is no argument it was a red?
crisp packet Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 I think king helped Henry a lot by jumping to his feet so quick ! If we had a hand bags scene after the incident he would have walked!!! Only Drinky gave a reaction ! Stone wall penno also ?(regardless of knocky trying an overhead kick )A push in the back ? IS a push in the back.....!
Freeman's Wharfer Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Last season we'd of bemoaning our luck at decisions such as the Knockaert penalty shout and telling ourselves we're good enough it it weren't for decisions such as that. This season we're genuinely good enough that we don't rely on favours and refs doing their job properly. What a job Pearson has done.
Bert Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 You had a drink? You've lost me here, are you saying not many people on here have argued that it was a red, or are you saying that there is no argument it was a red? Stupid auto correct! What I meant was there couldn't have been many complaints if it was a red!
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 31 January 2013 Posted 31 January 2013 Bloody awful ref, must have been at least two handballs which should have been given. Almost wanted them to score
