What bugs me most is that he's ruined a game, and will he be held to account for it? **** no will he. I sometimes wonder why i bother following the premier league, because for something that demands so much emotional investment from you it's guaranteed to screw you over if you don't support a top 6 side. I am SO PISSED OFF.
Colin spot on on the Beeb. "That decision would not have been given at the other end". Commentator just pointed out it was never a corner to begin with either.
I don't think those last five minutes have quite sunk in yet. When you lose at the Emirates it should be hard to feel too aggrieved but if Walcott was offside in the build up to the third along with everything else then the linesman HAS to be suspended. That's just bias of the highest order. If we're Manchester United we win 1-0. Absolutely ludicrous.
No complaints about Arsenal's second, but the other 2 the lino is completely to blame for. Never mind the penalty call, it should never have been a corner and Walcott was clearly offside for the third.
Absolutely gutted, but if we play like that next week we'll stuff Reading and it will be job done. [video=youtube;WlBiLNN1NhQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlBiLNN1NhQ[/video]

For decisions to 'even themselves out through a season' we must be due about 5 penalties in each of our remaining games!
I think the linesman is in trouble.I have never heard condemnation as strong from Crooks and Colin.There surely must be some action over this.
I suppose it evens out in the sense that all the teams near the bottom have decisions against them and all the teams at the top get helped out. What bugs me big time is the fact that the arsehole of a linesman will officiate again next week and get his money for being totally incompetent.
I had to walk away from it. I've only just found out it was three. What a way to **** somebody's weekend up. I hope that referees assistant is pleased with himself. I used to defend officials but just recently they have been indefensible. It was clearly never a corner. The referee has a clear view of what happened from that corner. He is the man in charge. He didn't see fit to whistle until that twerp said something in his ear. I am so down right now. It has nothing to do with being closer to relegation. My weekend has just nose dived because of an injustice.
And the disgusting Guardian online review doesn't even criticise the bastard. It reads like a noble fightback by Arsenal against the brave but ultimately defeated Canaries. It says that the assistant ref 'spotted a pull' by Kamara. You biased ****ing ****s!
But overall a good performance? I was surprised just how up for it you lot were, thought that you had it won (until the equalizer), Arsenal looked clueless up until then... Ok, no points, but surely that performance away from home must give you some hope that Hughton actually does know what he's doing?
Bloody hell redruth I hope your missus has locked away all the sharp knives 'cause I fear you may well slash your own wrists. Cheer up mate, we WILL beat Reading next week and we WILL stay up. After that performance I'm now feeling a lot more confident, 'always look on the bright side of life'
Will be interesting to Hughton's view. He is normally quite calm. Wonder what the 'experts' will say tonight on MOTD
