Shawcross challenges for a ball there to be won in an incident barely worthy of a free kick - end result a yellow card with mincing anti-football journalists screaming for a red.
Arteta flies into Owen from behind (not a foul in real football, but a red card in Arsenalball) and then kicks out at him, with Wilshere then following up on him - foul to Arsenal, not a word from the Arsenal media.
EDIT - Don't forget about Whelan getting booked for winning the ball from behind an Arsenal player in a way that didn't involve him diving in or taking out the man.

I hate everything about Arsenal.
The way they've stolen football and replaced it with a sport where the best cheat wins.
Their hypocritical fans, players, manager and friends in the media.
Their verminous players.
Utter, utter scum.

It's incredible isn't it, and, obviously, not at all surprising.
The red mist descends on Michael Owen as he bounces on the turf, that well known hard man of English football, and they still can't see beyond the Stoke thug / Saint Arsenal stereotype.

It was a proper 50/50. Shawcross did show his studs so perhaps you could argue it was a red but not for me. Anyway, we're never going to hear the end of it from them soft twats.

Think we should just do a proper job on them and be done with it. Rubbish yellows while they get away with it...better to be hung for a sheep than a lamb.

realy have got the stoke specs on today, if the shawcross tackle had been on a stoke player we'd all be shouting for red, arteta got the ball first but wiltshire should have been booked or sent off.

Fellas why not just admit that we are fucking gash away from home and that the capped twat is completely out of his depth at this level?

Am I wrong but it looked like both players did identical efforts to get the ball but it was Shawcross who was booked?

It was the definition of a 50/50 ball though, wasn't it? My stream froze just before contact and they were both a yard from the ball and sliding. Ryan caught him, but I think he could have just as easily been caught himself. A yellow card for whichever of them caught the other guy is pretty standard in these situations.

Cheers franklin I thought it was me as I have been brainwashed for an hour and a half by commentators saying how good an Arsenal challenge was but the same Stoke one was an act of violence!

It was a farce second half, he ref was nothing short of a disgrace and certainly was on the side of Arseholes.

Don't forget about the non-foul that Whelan was booked for.
