When you add in that Kaboul's first yellow was for dissent, you really have to blame the player for that one.
Are you thick? He was complaining about the absolute blatant penalty that wasn't given. And he didn't use bad language either. Clearly you just hate Spurs. Spurs were robbed. They deserved to win that game, for them to end up losing it was a travesty. Shawcross should have given away 2 pens and been sent off, Crouch handball, Adebayor given offside when miles on, Ridiculous red for Kaboul, all 50-50 challenges given as a stoke fk. I could go on. Why people like you even post on a football forum is beyond me
I hope you still think that on Sunday. I can't think of a perceived top ref I actually rate at the moment, hopefully Halsey changes my mind about that. I am happy we've avoided Foy, Walton, Webb, Atkinson
I just hope he doesn't show a yellow in the first 5 mins for a miss timed tackle and then that will set the way for the rest of the game. Cards galore , managers sent to the stands, I can just picture it now. Personally I think the whole day is going to be a disaster. On and off the pitch.
You are thick. Dissent is when you argue too much with a referee - what Kaboul was doing - definitely deserved his first yellow. You dont have to use bad language for it to be dissent. Using bad language at an official should result in a straight red.
What did I say? You have to work quite hard to get booked for dissent in the Premiership. I'm sure he deserved it.
The whole situation just doesn't feel right. The complete balls up with our tickets and travel arrangements, our poor away form, their decent home form. Many Saints fans I've spoke to think we will batter them. They have a half decent first team and with the atmosphere and the lack of experiance our team has in this type of situation I think Sunday could be a long day.
It certainly won't be a walk in the fratton park. We'll have to work for it, but I reckon we'll come away with our heads held high.
I fear the worst & will be happy with a point , so do the saints fans I know Not much chance of a 1-4 IMHO :-( Unless our Nige can calm the nerves .......
Listen Dumb ****. If the referee had done his job properly no one would have been telling the referee it was a penalty to start with. It was a penalty and that's all Kaboul told the referee. It is 100% the referees fault the first yellow Kaboul got. This Saints forum has to be full of the dumbest fans on the site.
I am a referee you stupid f**k. I know a lot more about dissent than you. Dissent is when you argue with the referee in an agressive tone of voice. I dont think Kaboul would have gone:"Excuse me ref, why did you give the penalty?" And how the f**k do you know what Kaboul said?? The only people who did were Kaboul, the ref and the other players nearby.
