Sunderland committed 10 fouls today and had 5 players booked. Spurs committed 13 fouls and received 1 booking. says it all for me..The ref was a total tit...
Most of our fouls were badly timed theirs were cynical. It annoyed me as well. First season for the ref in the EPL I believe. If today's anything to go by he won't be in the elite EPL refs retained list next year.
One decision against us was a shocker, and it wasn't until the crowd give him some stick that he then decided to get a yellow card out as well... Totally lost the plot..
Just before they hit the crossbar in the 1st half there was a blatant foul against Wickham in Tottenham's area. Should have been a penalty, Spurs player went straight through his legs
Dont worry about it mate, Spurs should have had 2 penalties, and when Spurs made a counter attack Sunderland players gave them a hug to stop play
Get your spurs glasses off. Your 2 pens for shirt pulling can be totally cancelled out. One of the spurs defenders has part if o'sheas shirt in his hand still. I agree the shirt tugs should be pens for you but that evened itself. As the op says, you talk about the "hugs" yet the ref booked more of ours for less fouls than he did of yours! And he didn't once look like booking anyone until we called him names. Petty and childish some might say
