Alex Lea on Twitter: "Weird how the referee has to consider 'the match as a spectacle' when inspecting a pitch. Might as well postpone all Stoke games..."

haha

 

[Lethul]

Ba really should score there

 

[megadave]

Knew it was gonna happen. OptaJoe says we've won 87, lost 1 drawn 1 when 2 goals up at half time. Cheers Rafa :/

Hmmm

 

[Himse]

I'm nervous.

 

[Embattle]

I'm nervous.

You should be.

 

[soze]

Arms all over players there stopping them jumping for the header and no Penalty it is funny how these things work.

 

[soze]

Given the penalty that made the difference was controversial I feel hard done by again.

 

[ileks]

I think a draw would have been a fair result.

Arsenal were shit in the first half. Sagna & Diaby were terrible. I think If Ba had started it would have been over by the first half.

 

[Himse]

My god you're a whiner soze

 

[Embattle]

Arsenal fans tend to slowly morph into Wenger clones.

 

[soze]

What do you mean morph? I have always been a moaner.

But last week we lose a player for the same amount of contact that was not given today. And the penalty today was weak it is hard not to moan when you lose two games on the trot in circumstances like that.

 

[Vladamir]

Hmmm

Don't worry - we've still got plenty of games left for Rafa to fuck this up some more.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Terrible refereeing that game, that said though we were so horrific in the first half it's no excuse.

Still though, both goals shouldn't have been allowed to stand. Clear foul and then a dive, only Chelsea fans seem to be saying it's a penalty. Every neutral I've seen has classified that as a dive.

Rugby tackles are minimal contact?

 

[CorNokZ]

Nobody can stop RVP it seems

 

[soze]

Not talking about that. In the last minute your guy had his arm over Vermalala and stopped him jumping it was every bit as much contact as the Kos tackle.

 

[caLLous]

Chris Hoy is gonna get some twitter abuse after this.

 

[Billargh]

Seems Rafa gave a Pardew-esque team talk at half time.

Oh and what a bell Ramires is.

 

[Embattle]

*giggle*

 

[Billargh]

Get in there Dempsey!

 

[Vladamir]

LULZ spurs!

 

[eksdee]

Deserved tbh, Spurs have been all over Utd for the majority of this game.

 

[caLLous]

Fucking sweet! I'll take a point, what a game. It seems United picked today to get their shit together defensively.

 

[Bahumat]

Sucks we lost but I won £9.50

 

[megadave]

9 big ones and 50p, WELL IN SON

 

[CorNokZ]

De Gea had a really good game

 

[Aoami]

[Vladamir]

Ferguson has lambasted Spurs fans for their brutal attack on Evra, stating he was 'lucky to be alive' after a snowball assault

[caLLous]

Haha, the Tranmere keeper got it way worse than that yesterday.

 

[CorNokZ]

Valencia down by five, at home, after the first half..
