Clattenberk

[joeluke]

United's twelfth man yet again

[Just-Jude]

Chelsea were outplayed for most of the match. Big girls always blame the referee!

[berniecuddles]

well said just-jude if man utd had 2 sent off nothing would have been said-YOU KNOW IT!!

[Smowball]

Hear hear. I watched the whole match myself.

[Duncer]

As one who supports neither team, the sending off was wrong and the third ManU goal was offiside. Such are the vagaries of football.

[Ric.ror]

The sending off of Torres was wrong as he should hvae gone in the first half for his tackle on Cleverley
As for the third goal being offside - by inches maybe - unlike the blatant offside given to Drober in the same fixture last season
Its swings and roundabouts I'm afraid and people focus on United because they are United
Independant research last season showed United had more decisions against rather than in favour - and I emphasis independant

[Duncer]

Try emphasising "independent" instead mate.

[Ric.ror]

I stand corrected

There is something wrong with your eyes.
Or perhaps you tunnel vision.

[Sqad]

First 35mins Chelsea were over-run by a rampant Man Utd who deservedly were 2 goals up.

End of 1st half and fir the first part of the second half, Chelsea were "all over" Man Utd and deservedly drew level.

I am not a Torres fan but he was clearly fouled in the box...a penalty to Chelsea should have been awarded and the Man Utd player sent off.

Manu Utd goal was clearly offside.

Who would be a football official eh?

[Hopkirk]

Love it Triggs.

I note that Fergie said Torres should have stayed on his feet.

Is that what he tells Ashley Young to do?

[tonyav]

Hey, how come Clattenberk as got hair all of a sudden. ?

[Gromit]

Torres should not have been on the pitch. He deserved a straight red before his pantomime fall.

Miles outside the box.

It happens when you grow up Tony... didn't you know. not usually on your head though.

I agree with Ric.ror, any decision that goes Uniteds way is pounced upon.
It just happened at the BRIDGE ooohh.. breaking Chelsea's home record... how dare they.

[tonyav]

I recon that Rooney has payed for Clattenberk to have an hair transplant.

[Arksided]

I knew what you meant Tony lol, but the ref was poor, for both sides, the winner was off-side but that was the ref' assistant (linesman).

[tonyav]

I know, arksided. Yep he was dire imo.

[DTCwordfan]

Let's just have the game played with no officials - it would be far more entertaining, particularly South American games - remember this attack on a ref in Colombia
