Barton

He cross-threaded it to OUR board that's what the Norwich City link means at the top of the page! Ask for help if you don't understand!

 

not true. initially he flicks his head back. for me, that is the ONLY exaggeration on show in the whole incident so for warnock to come out and say he dived around shows what a muppet he is. johnson was in the wrong to flinch like he did but he didn't do anything else wrong in the incident. he didn't even go chasing the ref. when the play stopped he motions that the elbow was used on him, which it was 10 seconds before the alleged headbutt

 

Supers,

For once I actually kind of disagree with you mate. I don't think BJ pulling his head back is in any way exagerration, there was obviously some form of contact, no matter how slight and the natural instinct when somebody puts their head in your face - particularly when it's an ugly, scruffy, council estate head like Farton's - is to flinch in just the manner BJ did. He rubbed his nose to see if there had been any blood but he absolutely did not 'make a meal' out of it and as you say for Warnock to claim he rolled around trying to win a red card is without doubt one of the more pathetic claims I have ever, ever heard.

 

Bell has gone kids!. FFs !! Give your heads a shake!. We lost simple as that!. Move on!. Did he, didn't he touch him, all im bothered about is the next game. a dubious issue arises in nearly every premiership game whether it be an offside , handball, ball over the line or not, sending off etc etc. Don't abuse me back lads as my dad is bigger than yours!!

 

My last comment on this.....none of you Norwich fans seem to have noticed Johnson kicking Barton as he runs passed him to join the break away!! You all conveniently ignore that, plus your mule of a centre half trying to impede him too. Barton is a twat...we all know that, but he's our twat and in this instance he was more the victim than the perpetrator. Barton shouldn't have swung his arm out in retaliation nor should he have squared up to Johnson, again in retaliation, but take that out of him and you'll have no player at all imo.
Lastly.....you are all in denial over the behaviour of your players. I was at the game and your players surrounded the ref after every decision they didn't like. Holt was the worst, although it is to his credit that he tried to stop the ref producing a red card (even he knew it wasn't a red!!). All your players moaned and whinged throughout, whilst getting away with murder themselves...Holt and Whitbread being the worst offenders.
Barton shouldn't have got involved and Johnson and the other players and bench shouldn't have tried to con the officials. Let's all move on shall we?

 

Amen

 

To all QPR fans forget it we lost a game of football against a team that has stuck together more or less from league one ... I find that a credit to team spirit something I am sure most Norwich fans would agree we had last year ... Barton the stupid twat lost us the game as he will many more .. It's the only way he can make an impact on a game because he hasn't the craft to do it IMO he hides during games and has ruined what we had before
Let's hope now that we can get it back as just watched the full 90 v Arsenal on Espn in Mexico and we looked ok in that game against one the worlds greatest teams .. Not my words but the Mexicans ... Wake up and realise where we are and what we mean to billions of fans worldwide ... They love Taarabt and Faurlin here

 

I'm off to watch some paint dry!

 

Double Amen

 

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! What game were you watching? Did you see your team in the second half?? Were you looking at NW going purple and the whole of your bench going mental. Every time a Norwich player came within five feet of QPR there were hands waving. Even the ESPN commentators mentioned how bad QPR were in the second half because of it.

Sad fact is, this is the modern game. Don't think I've seen any Norwich players deny that our players appeal. However, I've seen alot worse from others, especially you lot second half yesterday

 

agree rob.

rangercol seems to have ignored the reason why he was kicked by johnson. he elbowed BOTH whitbread AND johnson, johnson tripped him up, barton reacted by barging, then put his head in...

round and round and round we go...

 

We all obviously watched different games!! Complete waste of time now.
Dave or Brix....put us all out of our misery!!

 

**** for brains. I know people in Docking who shag sheep. Sounds like you are behind the times, asshole.

 

Yeah, I'd quit while you're not too far behind Rangers

 

Be fair both Rangers and Norwich fans, have you ever seen such a terrible ref?

 

Yes, when we played at home to West Brom & Stoke this season, especially the Baggies game!
I agree with the gist of what you are saying though, refereeing standards in general appear to have gone down hill, more so in the last 2 seasons. I was hoping once we got promoted we had seen the back of poor decisions, or at least a lot less of them but life in the PL is no different.

On the bright side these decisions are not confined to the 'new boys' as King Kenny and Arsene Wenger will only be too happy to tell you

 

just read the name of the director who is being investigated for his abusive tweets...
