That has to be explained

i rarely take notice of referee's but as soon as i saw the close up of this one all i could remember was him giving almost every thing against us and just there with this smirk on his face, really annoying bloke in the middle mind...but you know he will offer his report and that will be that.

Its the smirk he always had on his face that pi$$es me off
 
Team of ****houses.

How many times did they stop us taking quick free kicks and get away with it?
 
Swansea deserved the win, they were much the better team. It might have been different if we didn't go down to 10 men so early, but I don't think we can have any real complaints.

Consistency is very hard to achieve and changing that whole defence around (even if enforced) didn't help.

Of the 4 key decisions, the ref got 3 of them right, despite all of the moaning. The challenge on Amad should have been a penalty, but given that it was minor contact and where it was, I'm not shocked that the ref didn't see it.

I'll always credit the players for their work rate and today was no different. Can't knock their commitment.
 
Only 1 person to blame for this result and it was the inadequate display from the twat in the middle, probably making it all about him in front of a large crowd. He needs to be sacked but as we know the fa are to weak to pull the snot from the winkle
 
Tough game for Danny Batth he looked like he had 3 assists, 1 for us 2 for them.

We will never know that , thanks to one man and I'm not knocking O/9 he was rash, no so your referee.
 
That was a ****ing shambles of a display from all of the officials, linesmen were a complete waste of time and it seems to be that they are no longer allowed to flag for anything other than what the referee believes. Corners when it was a blatant goal kick, goal kicks when it was a corner. Penalties ignored. I’m fuming!

We worked hard mind but having said that you could see for ages that we were leaving players free on their left and that should have been addressed quickly.

Just got in from the game. We win that with 11 men, Swansea are such a poor side so it's really got me annoyed how stupid and reckless O Nien was. I said red card the second he made that tackle.

And as long as Gooch starts games for Sunderland, we won't be progressing like we want to. The first two goals came down his side, the first one was completely laughable and I don't think anyone will have an excuse for what he did there. The second was down to his usual giving his man tonnes of space to get the cross in. He's ****e, and he needs to go.

Agree in part however Amad didn’t pick up a man once on that side, leaving Gooch to cover two men a lot of the time. It’s not his type of game but when down to 10 you have to get stuck in
 
I would wipe the smile of his face if he bumped into me, cheeky twat refs this season taking the piss now, the ref will cop it next week if he refs like that vs the Boro. ruining our season they are no pens 3 on the trot now conspiracy without a doubt and O Nein was stupid with that tackle. defending was woeful as well.

First one was Danny baths fault.

Second maybe but he was tucked in as he should be in that position.
