    I think debatable. The first penalty is almost nailed on. The second penalty could go either way, he gets a touch on the ball but at the same time he has taken Gabby from behind with the slide tackle and the red card are two relatively straight forward yellow cards.

    It couldn't go either way, its just the wrong decision, how can you even debate that?

    The ref has made a few mistakes but definately a tough game to referee for anyone.

    He's made it a tough game mate. Noone but himself to blame, he's card happy.. Clearly out of his depth.

    No it couldn't it was a terrific tackle. Bad refereeing decision.

    It's hardly just me debating it. Setanta showed the tackle quite a few times from different angles and the commentators couldn't make a definitive decision. Like I said, he does get a touch on the ball but at the same time he does catch Gabby's legs from behind. Could have gone either way, thus it is debatable.

    That was classic commentator not wanting to call something, there was no debating that at all.


    Andddd I'm out, everything that could have gone wrong, has.

    Referee or not. Arsenal are a shambles. No signings and what does Wenger expect?


  • Administrators, Computer Games Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 32,808 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭Mickeroo


    As bad as the ref has been we have been ****ing brutal. Those scoreless draws last year ain't looking so bad now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,500 ✭✭✭Drexel


    Nightmare!!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 23,091 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    a RB playing at LB, a CM covering CB and Arsenal chasing an equalizer, counter attack always a threat and thats exactly what happened. The Arsenal fans now directing their chants straight at Wenger
