In my opinion, the amount of terrible decisions by officials this season is unmatched throughout history.

I simply cannot believe how wrong they get things week after week. Liverpool got a penalty today after the ball hit a Leicester player in the face !

Why do you all think there's been so many wrong decisions this season ? Surely the game hasn't changed so much that the officials can't keep up ? We're talking decisions here that everyone apart from the officials can see are wrong - not 50/50 decisions where you win some, lose some.

In all seriousness - why is my this happening ? It's really spoiling football. After the blindness of the Rob Green decision - I really felt like turning the match off because what's the point ? We'll never know what the true outcome should have been in that game because Green should have been sent off 100%. We didn't even get a free kick from it. Remember the West Ham game where the ref played advantage and then after they didn't score - gave them a free kick and sent our keeper off ?
It no longer matters who deserves to win the game - it comes down to whoever gets the luck of the decisions from the officials.

We have to have TV officials that can alert the ref on these things.

And the Shelvet shot that was saved by the outstretched arm of the defender!
You have a point, in the past we've moaned about penalties being given or not for players going down easily or the ball to hand hand to ball questions - this season it's about how the heck did three officials miss a goalkeeper handling the ball two yards outside the penalty area? How does Rangel get a second yellow for standing still? Why is a very late and potentially leg braking talk (shortly after a similar foul) not get a red card? How does a player not get a card for ankle tapping a player about to cross from the goal line?
 
Sometimes it needs an away fan to educate our own fans about football <ok>

In fairness to the Slob and Swans fans in general, they are judging their team's performances these days as an established top half Premier League side so by those standards then perhaps it was a bit under par. Coming from a team scrapping at the bottom though, Swansea looked a very dangerous and skillful side. Not too unlike when we played you a month ago.
 
Between Bonys great goal today and Chelsea losing , Bony will probably be wearing baby blue on his return from national obligations.

Exactly <applause>
 
sorry but i cant help what happens in football. Players move on and if you cant expect or agree with that then this game is not for you..<ok>
 
First time I've been disappointed in Bony , should keep his hindsighticle remarks to himself .No probs starting Gomis today , very gutsy by Monk to prepare Gomis for Bony's departure .

Well done Bony for speaking your mind. I bet you a lot of the players also think it was wrong to drop him.
He should have played from the start and got us a lead - then Gomis could come on.

Monk should take heed of whats happening or there will be a player revolt.
 
He still is one of our players though taff , seems very out of character for him so I think your right.

But then we'd be moaning that Gomis isn't match fit and hasn't played enough to lead the line in Bony's absence.
 
I don't blame him.
He looked distraught on the bench but look at his appetite when he came on (come that to Jonjo).

I wouldn't. He could have had 90 mins in the FA Cup unless Monk is gonna disrespect it and the fans again.

I can see us only getting 1 point in the next 3 games anyway - a draw at home to West Ham. Can't see us getting any joy against Chelsea or away to Southampton. I would have preferred to get points in the bag today.
