Pabs 0 Posted February 22, 2014 Was when Snodgrass stole the ball off RVW to take that eon vs Villa.If RVW had taken, scored he may well have scored a few more... Plus we may have gone on to get 3 points.Sometimes what seems fairly insignificant at the time looks much worse when you look back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Syteanric 1 Posted February 22, 2014 if only the referee had applied the letter of the law vs Cardiff at home, when Fer rolled the ball into an empty net, and not simply have "invented" a rule to disallow a goal... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dubai Mark 0 Posted February 22, 2014 With the margins so thin at this level. luck/good fortune has a large part to play......and based on that we have had precious little of it this season to date, very little.....so I am expecting a few large slices of it over the next few weeks, and now expect us stay up.

Firedawg 3 Posted February 22, 2014 Binner.... So what level of ''cheating'' do you agree with ?When Snoddy ''falls'' over and wins a free kick a and we score from the kick - is that ok ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston Canary 0 Posted February 22, 2014 That''s hardly the same thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firedawg 3 Posted February 22, 2014 No it''s not - you are right ! One is pretending to be fouled to gain an advantage and the other is scoring from a throw in. Sad thing is when the ball was kicked out due to the injury to the opposing player it was obvious once the ball was kicked out the player was timewasting. It was a goal simple as and the ref bottled it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
im spartacus canary 0 Posted February 22, 2014 i''m not actually convinced ricky can reach the goal from12 yards [:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston Canary 0 Posted February 22, 2014 Yes the ref screwed up but the acceptable form is to do the throw in and pass it back to the opposition. To violate that is shameful. We''re (morally) better than that. Had the goal stood, we would have been obliged to give them one back or become the pariahs of the league with potentially harsh repercussions over a long period. Like the next times we were in their position, rather than kicking it out, opponent''s would ignore our injury and continued to attack and score. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firedawg 3 Posted February 22, 2014 I know what you are saying but the game has sold it''s soul to the great god ''sky'' - rooney 85 mill in 5 years so I am past caring about ''morally right'' no one else seems to care anymore. Win at all costs eh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
