http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01p6m2b/The_Football_League_Show_2012_2013_24_11_2012/ Gas game 1hour 1mins 51secs in. Seeing the red cards incident again, Clucas made the tackle and Brown didnt do anything wrong but Brown gets sent off. Clear miss identity case. But as it was a 2nd yellow card, the stupid rules are that you cant appeal against yellow cards even though it was a shocking decision. I think Walker should of done better with the 1st goal he conceded. Bad defending with the other 2 though. If you want to City get a very lucky win then here you go. Boro scored a goal but due to the fog, the officials didnt see it go in so they got away with it. That would of put City 2-1 down. The commentator went on to say "match conditions was worsening and match officals barely new what was going on". Boro was complaining to the officals that City was playing in white and the ball was white in the bad fog conditions meant they were struggling. If only Boro had the same H&S officer as Wycombe Looks like City were very lucky yesterday. I even heard a City fan on Twentyman show say "play offs here we come" Citys game 15mins 13secs in.
Thank you capt for those kind words, but as you know in football bad decisions level themselves out over a season. But please tell me this how did you actually see the ball go over the line? Because I can't I rewinded it a few times and the officials have to be certain with a split second. So perhaps you should become a ref Lucky or not the score says 1-3 which at the end of the day it stands.
just to point out, yesterday i did say it was a great result for city. i still stand by that the officials making bad decisions isnt citys fault. im not saying city cheated as city didnt. my opinion is boro's non goal should have been a goal. your opinion is the opposite which is fine. think if it wasnt for the fog, it would have been given. commentator even said the match officials didnt have a clue what was going on! not my words you were lucky yesterday but however lucky it was, it was still a great result. bad decisions is suppose to level out throughout the season and were reminded this every week by the big guys in football. but in reality they dont even themself out. example would be blackpool. a table was shown after blackpool got relegated from the prem that if the bad decisions were corrected, blackpool would have easily stayed up. but they got relegated. i think i maybe jealous though ROD on 2 accounts, 1, we were winning at wycombe and game got abandoned wrongly. you were winning yesterday and should of got abandoned. 2, i wish we had that luck as we definately need it
as for me being a ref.... would love to do it but i would get sacked in my 1st game due to the violence i will cause each time i get called a fat bastard or i would have a heart attack after 5 mins of running! so best not
Well done for saying the word jealous Just watched it again the players feet were behind the line, but still hooked away without the ball crossing sorry. Yes the fog was bad but the officials decide whether or not the game continues and it effects both teams not one. If Boro are complaining that they could not tell the difference between a white ball and a player then that is clutching at straws. You know and I do if they won the game they would not of mentioned it.
regarding the praise to me for saying the word jealous, im just honest ROD, always have been. Even with the accusations chucked my way about having multi accounts, when i havent. i havent lied once as not worth it. lies catch up with you on a place like this and then you lose any credibility that you had if had any! maybe this is a reason why i have fallen with others. i have also watched it again and even without the fog looking at it again, there was a boro player on the line by the post which would of made it hard to see also your player who cleared it, his back would of blocked the view as well. although my opinion it was a goal, i would of been hard to give it due to the fog and the reasons that i just stated. cant wait for goal line technology, but thats a different subject
Ha ha your a bloater I know what you mean about running around, I get tired running the bath saying that my old man was not much younger than I am now or perhaps the same age when he started running and he has ran the London marathon the great north run and still to this day after a stroke, heart op runs approx 20 miles a week. Even got his own Facebook page as the Bettws running man Funny as **** because whenever he is not feeling well he calls my wife to put something on his page to let people know why they haven't seen him for a bit.
Well Clucas should of stepped forward to the ref and owned up to the tackle and not let his team mate take the blame for the tackle.
I'm pretty sure the rule about appealing two yellows cards does not apply to mistaken identity, I can vaguely remember this happening before to someone else and I'm sure it was repealed.
Sam walkers positioning and decision making is all over the place as for the third goal Rhiordan offered absolutely no support to Paterson (nothing all game) which led to them breaking down the left hand side and the rest is history. We cannot afford to have a slacker playing in midfield,as it was yesterday central midfield was virtually non existant all game why MM did not change personnel assume as Smith scored MM feels that is validation, lack of Clue cus he was like a headless chicken. It was basically defence and attack,why do all the players go back for a corner leaving no one up in the middle this leaves us with no outlet if we win the ball also we stay deep inviting pressure upon us. At the minimum we needed a draw yesterday classic first goal by Branston could not fault his workrate turned a bit easily a few times other than that a grafter.Possibly get found out in dry conditions or a better attacking force.Woodards not quite up to speed can only get better. Thought Anyinsah and Eaves looked good for most of the game Anyinsah terrorised there defence with good runs. At the very least the work rate was up. Must win match on Tuesday COR
ref looked like he had no clue. he took ages to decide who he 'thought' it was and kept going back to the other officials for guidance who also didnt know. in that respect he shouldnt have booked anyone if he had no clue who it was. he should of made a note in his match report and let the guys in charge of these decisions have a look at it. now you may find we cant appeal brown but clucas may get a match ban as well if someone looks at it. all IF's i know but just thinking out loud.
i hope your right bankys but if i heard correctly in MM post match interview he said he cant appeal??? maybe someone who also heard it can correct me if im wrong
Totally agree with COR re Riordan on left midfield. Yes, he had a better game and looked sharper, but he doen't do the nitty gritty part of that position and leaves us exposed on the left. Thought Bradford looked good going forward, but it's clear what we need and why we're conceding so many - MIDFIELD! Oh for Stuart Campbell.
