Salmonbones Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 In America, a group of individuals who thought this strongly would come together and do something about it. Can we as a group of individuals not do something about this? It's clear we all feel the same - and that in itself tells a story as we are usually at serious odds with each other 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam77 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Start a petition for the football league to investigate this match and the referee,If you reach 100,000 signatures it goes to parliament! Leeds fans got 70,000 for a badge this should be a piece of p!ss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 The match wasn’t fixed and the ref isn’t bent. He had a very poor game, and we were unlucky to lose to 2 late goals to a team that will probably finish top 2. Now, shall we just take our medicine and move on to the next game and stop whining? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to beat the 11 men on the field regardless of how bad a referee is and our 11 men simply aren’t capable of beating other team’s 11 men. It is that simple. You raise a fair point. However, the margins between losing, drawing or winning a game at Championship level are very fine and, secondly, who is going to stay around and watch officials perform like that every week?

s6 owl Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Here he is with David Cootes who also hates us, you can clearly see he is begging Bruce for a BJ here after a brilliant piece of corrupt refereeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One free kick all match and blatantly giving villa anything every time a villa player went down suggests either incompetence or total bias . If a ref has a poor game he is poor for both sides not complete bias to one . Add to Terry chirping at him all game , giving villa players a hand up after going down and getting his head rubbed by Bruce doesn't lend itself to an unbiased poor performance . Not whining just what I saw . I'd have taken a loss but a really good performance before the match but the manner of the defeat annoys me .

Obviously not he carried on in the same manner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StudentOwl Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 (edited) Villa were behind for about 40 minutes today, level for about 40, and ahead for about 10. Possession for sake of argument was 50/50 over the 90. I'm not sure there is a football game above semi-professional level where a team only commits one foul in 80 minutes of not winning a game. It's just not possible when you're trying to be competitive. I never thought I'd say there was match fixing because it just comes across like you're making up an excuse to justify a poor performance. But it seems a damned sight more likely than a team that's only in front for 10 mins fouling the opposition only once.

Guest mkowl Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Pity I am up in Sheffield for a day or two. I know where Stockley Park is where they do the VAR and could have bumped into him whilst going to a client and passed on our regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
