Pompey vs United Match Thread

RasTa

Second to Keane's at Croke Park, that's the worst peno decision i've seen.

Mr Alan

to have such a firm & strong hold of the lads jersey was a gamble by Vidic, its different than the usual bustling slight tugs, he nearly tore the jersey off him.

Mitch Connor

Terrible performance from United. Terrible performance from the Ref.

Both given penalties were soft.

Then the CLEAR handball by the Pompey player isn't given as a penalty - shocking how that was not given.

United don't deserve to be level though. done nothing in the game. Terrible performance so far, they should all be ashamed of themselves. Second best to everything and no creativity up front.

Bitterly disappointing. Can't afford to not to win this game.

Not one Pompey player appealed for a spot-kick , joke of a decision. great reffing once again ....

And the Pompey player had a clear hold of vidic's arm pulling him downward. They were both fouling each other.

I think you should watch the replay. It's on now.

Mr Alan

so who fouled first?

Quandary

whatever about our crappy defense today, Giggs and even moreso Carrick have been V poor in midfield.

I think the pompey player was trying to get free trying to get his hand off him shame tho your keeper had the clearence no prob

I doubt that - he wasn't moving his arm in a manner to remove Vidic's hand, he'd have pushed away if that was the case. He was holding on to him.

Funny how the CLEAR penalty that United should have had merits little discussion. Ref bottled it, and is another case of the refs screwing United.

I thought it was a very sketchy decision but after watching the replay, fair enough. And if they were given every week, players would stop doing it surely? It's a foul. Fair play to the ref for giving it

Blackhorse Slim

Ferguson's abuse of referees has gone too far, they are starting to give legitimate decisions against United. If he has another rant after this game (which he will) it will only work against him, both with the FA and the refs.

Even if they turn this one around, can't see them keeping up with Chelsea this season.

This is hilarious, Vidic was pulling his jersey off. It was harsh but still a penalty.

Right?

I Think he was trying to free himself too,


but on your other point i agree he bottled it, and i think it's purely a case of him having given 2 penalties already that he didn't give the most obvious. Which is obviously stupid.

Like Carragher only getting a yellow. the entirity of the Cheslea game. The penalty today. The refs are screwing United since the fitness comments. It is plain as day.

lol, yeah it's a witch hunt. as the setanta host just said "What goes around comes around " Pat Dolan also chipped in and reckons the ref and linesmen will be drinking champagne to celebrate the correct decisions!

What? Pompey have just outclassed united for 45 minutes, and peno aside should have been at least 2-1 up.

Yeah but calling this scoreline "justice" is a bit far fetched surely?

lol, one free kick decision in the chelsea game & allowing evans to stay on the pitch made up for that one. the carragher one was a yellow card, not a red card offense, could have been a red, but the correct decision was the yellow.

you sound silly talking about refs conspiring AGAINST Utd.

MagicMarker

LOL!!!!

never a peno :pac:
