Refs playing there part

They are trying there damned hardest to make sure we don't get top 4 again.

I may well be paraniod but we played Villa defoe sent off for a no nothing challenge and play 75 mins with ten men, today newcastle should have had a man sent of instead we get kaboul sent of and have to play the second half with ten men again, it seems to be a conspiracy against us atm..lol

how that guy didnt get sent of is beyond me. kaboul though can have no complaints hes an idiot. hes now going to have to fight for hes place again now galas and king wil be back by the time hes 3 game ban is up

silly boy

PMSL some wag has posted this on the Ref's Wikipedia entry . . . . . .


Premier League career
His first ever Premier League game came on February 3, 2010 at Craven Cootage between Fulham and Portsmouth. The game ended 1-0 to Fulham. He refereed one more game in the top flight during the 2009-10 season before being promoted to the Select Group of Referees at the start of the 2010-11 season. On 18 September 2010 he took charge of the Premier League fixture between Blackburn and Fulham at Ewood Park. The match ended 1-1, but Taylor was heavily criticised by both managers for reportedly failing to see a handball outside of the penalty area by Fulham goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer in the seventh minute, and later awarding Blackburn the opening goal despite an apparent foul on the Schwarzer.[11]

On December 28, 2010, he refereed a match between Tottenham Hotspurs and Newcastle United. His decisions and overall performance were below par and dismal. While secretly wearing a Newcastle United shirt under his referee attire, he went on to hand out multiple bookings for petty offences and a red card to Tottenham Hotspurs. Despite these setbacks, Tottenham, already in the lead before being reduced to 10 players, fought with burning desire and spirit to win the game 2-0 with a wonderful strike from the brilliant Gareth Bale. Tottenham were triumphant, overcoming the odds of playing 10 versus 12.

Today was a classic example of a referee losing control because he didn't take a firm stance with Newcastle from the start. They came with a get a point at any cost attitude and heavy tackling right from the kick off should have been stamped on. At half time the discussion round me was that a Spurs player would retaliate and get sent off. Well as we know it happened and while I agree Kaboul was an idiot it looked from where I was sitting that the tackle was two footed studs up and that should have been a straight red.
