Seen lots of criticism of the Referee, but what about the 2 blind freddies on the sidelines ?? Went the whole match in Sgt. Shultz mode " I see nothing " !!!! Actually it's hard to argue against sending off of Drogba, but Bosingwa dubious, and the QPR penalty would probably be given as often as not. But it was all one way traffic from the officials all match. No fairness whatsoever. Luiz penalty claim valid, grabbed , pulled and bundled. Lampards a bit less so, but just as bad as the one given to QPR. Seems all match every 50/50 decision went to Rangers and against us. Infuriating, especially as I now live in Australia, I had to get up at 1.30am to watch it. Referee and assistants need a gift voucher for Spec Savers, and 3 weeks in the sin bin, playing pin the tail on the donkey. They can then take their blindfolds off. Wonder what gems we'll get for the Arsenal clash ??
Bosingwa, at worst was a yellow! Most good refs would have probably let it go with a free kick! No doubt about Drogs though, and now I dont suppose he cares! Foy's performance overall yesterday, should be put under the microscope by the FA. There is too much at stake in the PL these days to allow so much bias against one team. 17 fouls per team. they get 2 yellows, we get 2 reds and 7 yellows. Nuf said!
As said on another thread, the needs to be a check that Foy wasn't under duress. We know there are nasty, powerful match fixers out there. The Turkish, German and Italian league have all suffered. Do be fooled into thinking match fixing is only offering money. These gangs are organised crime, they threaten violence, they will threaten your family. Whenever there is a game like yesterdays, secretly of course, the FA with the police should be making sure Foy wasn't got at and that he and his family are OK. I say this because there were times when he looked desperate out there, and I noticed too the assistants markedly refused to help him.
