it was never a red card. no where near the man, even though his foot slid over the ball. he let the game run on for too long when he should have carded players before hand. it boils up to the last minute then he sends someone off. useless, useless reffing. what a cutn
The ***got Norwich players were dropping all afternoon, they buy twats like Atkinson and have him in their hand, they must be being paid to send us down, they are turning supporters away from watching football and this might be my last, we do not get penalties now, and then they take the piss by booking/sending our players of. They won't get away with I am telling you. Atkinson is walking on very thin ice now.
What 'penalty' ? The only appeal I saw by your players was when the ball hit Seb Bassong squarely in the chest, did I miss something else ?
This If I'm totally honest if it had been one of our players put in a challenge like that I wouldn't be complaining about a red card.
only contact with the ball sent the foot over it as the defender made contact at the same time, the foot has to go somewhere, the ball could have just as easy popped up instead. As for the scissor bollocks(which incidentally there's nothing in the rules that make doing that action in the tackle a sending off offence nugget), next time he'll have to remember to dislocate that trailing peg and fold it behind his back so it doesn't interfere in any tackles.
It's a harsh red but you have absolutely zero chance of getting it overturned. Scissor kick, not winning the ball cleanly but going right over the top of it and skimming it. FA will side with ref, Sunderland won't bother with an appeal for risk of being deemed frivolous.
At least one, possibly two penalties no given..He gave every decision Norwich's way all afternoon, and took obvious great pleasure with the sending off..This ref is a disgrace to his profession, but how many times have we said that this season..
What penalties are you on about??? I didn't see any. Ref just let the game flow, plenty of potential fouls from both teams not given. Hardly biased though, I understand you are just frustrated.
