I believe all the officials can call the foul but, as would be usual, the ref didn't look over to any of the other officials, especially backwards.


We've seen already this season with Taylor and Mason that instructions are coming through their ear pieces, they couldn't make it any less obvious.

However I think Swarbrick saw this, good peripheral vision.

Great call whichever way, just found it strange that at halftime, RatBoy and ScouseCunt were arguing that there's no way he could've called it, basically saying the goal should've stood!

The way they went off on one at half time it was as though they thought if they moaned so much about it the goal would be reinstated!

Their faces were a real joy to behold. The aftermatch analysis revolved around the poor defence of Bournemouth rather than any decent play from us, similar to the halftime where it was if they were showing Bournemouth how to get at us. RatBoy looked like he wanted to cry, he was that emotional, and it blew their narrative out the water of Pep/us crumbling under the pressure.

I take this shit as a positive now as it's so commonplace.

Yeah I'm with you on that pal. My dad goes ape shit about it all, but I just keep telling him to use it as a positive. Every fucker seems to be against us.....yet we keep soldiering on. We will come out on top. Every fucker and their dogs are bricking it because they know how big we are, and how we are only going to be pushing on leaving everyone in our wake!

When you look at the players we're now bringing in, and the more youthful philosophy, with the injection of a couple of quality FBs we will be at the top for many years to come.

We've got RSJ and SAS, to name but a few partnerships, and I can see them only getting stronger.

Happy Days indeed.

Didn't they have a transfer ban as well, for the dodgy Neymar deal. Or was that revoked as it's Barca?

:lol: That is so funny JC. It's almost pantomime territory with referee being the baddy and commentators / pundits being the ugly sisters.

You're absolutely right, but I wouldn't mind another forward as well.

If you want to see how a ref can 'influence' a game have a look at Ireland Vs. France yesterday.
Nigel Owens has close ties to Ireland and earns a lot of money in Ireland from motivational talks, etc...

The Irish supporters I was watching the game with are rugby heads and they called this out before the match.
They said if the game is close the ref will swing it Ireland's way with key decisions.
They called it correctly. The key decisions, the ones that really mattered, went Ireland's way.
Just look at the penalty kick Ireland got to seal the win - a joke of a call - the Irish supporters reckoned that Nigel should have got MOTM.
Any decisions France got where in positions where they could not hurt Ireland.

This is what is happening to us week after week.
We have to be far superior to the opposition to win.
The Rags just need to show up, they are in 6th, their true position is a lot lower than that.
