WELL PLAYED LADS FOR STADNING UP TO THE DEMORALISATION HANDED OUT BY ATKINSON. PROUD OF THEM TODAY !!! Absolutely. Us fans should not criticise any of the players for that, we'd gone to a difficult place to play and were the better team until the ref intervened. Anyone who has a pop at any of the players or the manager after that should take a hard look at themselves.

Well if thats the criteria then we'd be getting rid of rather a lot of our players, as would a few others. Look, I'm not arguing about Walters anymore. I'm sick of seeing him fuck things up that could have been of benefit to our team, that's it. I'm not at all blaming him for this result or how the game had been handled by the officials. It's been a disgrace. Nor am I mate, I really can't be arsed after the result and the reasons for it today. "Its been a disgrace" = spot on.

For those who didn't hear it on the radio Terry Conroy just said that a Newcastle based reporter just shook his hand and said " you were robbed " .

No surprise but he didn't book their players for challenges far worse than Whelan's.
Just shocking ineptitude really. Either that or the bloke is a cheat.
Atkinson has shafted us before. No doubt he will shaft us again.
Today was harsh in the extreme but if there is one good thing to come out of this, I know for absolute certain that my 5 year old is a Stoke fan.
He was nearly in tears when Wilson got sent off, went nuts when Tommy saved the penalty and then cried when the 2nd goal went in and the TV footage showed the ball out of play. At that point he stormed off and said "the ref is a cheat mummy. I can't watch it anymore. It's making me sad!"
That's my boy!

To walk off would be a good call apart from the Stoke fans who have travelled. Atkinson would not have known what to do.

To walk off would be a good call apart from the Stoke fans who have travelled. Atkinson would not have known what to do. It's not an option. The ref would have abandoned the match, the administrators would have held an enquiry, awarded the points to Newcastle and handed Stoke a massive fine and probably a massive points deduction that would have put them odds on to be relegated out of the Premiership. The authorities, sponsors, TV companies who have sold the game around the world, and all the other vested interests would not risk a repeat and hit Stoke so hard no club would dare do it again. The fact is we have to all forget about it* and move on. MH will trying to calm down the players (and himself) for the rest of the evening, get a night's sleep, and starting working on the Spurs game in the morning. MH himself will probably be getting a touchline bad. * until 12th April when Newcastle come to Stoke.

my view for what it`s worth Whelan stupid but unlucky , Wilson debatable , Atkinson woeful. As for the rest ,dead impressed with Stoke we look like we belong here in this league we have the makings of a good side. Put this one to bed and move on. We have time to put one over on Pardew and that bag of shite.

What happens if they walk off? Newcastle would get a 3-0 win I think, or have I completely made that up ? ? ? ? ..and we would get a massive fine.

THERE IS AN AGENDA AND THEY KNOW IT WHICH IS WHY THEY'LL DO FUCK ALL......COATES HAS INFLUENCE UP TOP AND SHOULD START SAYING THE THINGS TP , NOW MH AND MANY OTHER MINNOW MANAGERS HAVE MOANED ABOUT,....... had that of been Arsenal, liverpool, ManCiteh or the Shite yesterday, who thinks after 35mins the ref would have done the next 5 things he did and been villified by their clubs....

Money is the corrupter of all isn't it? Indeed it is. 100k+ Salary + 2.5k a game, it's madness. That referee has no common sense whatsoever. Completely destroyed the game for us. It's gutting having traveled for nearly 4 hours to watch the lads, only for it to be ruined by the ref. It was a great game up until around 40 mins aswell. Shame on you Mr.Atkinson.

I've been starting to turn up some disturbing stuff about Atkinson and Stoke
He was the referee who sent off Rory Delap against Man C at home He was also the referee who sent off Robert Huth in the snow against Sunderland a couple of seasons ago.
Both would seem to be ridiculous decisions directly against Stoke City added to this what happened at the weekend.
Im looking for more evidence, apart from the cup final where nothing was given in our favour.
Is there a place where officials records of games they have refereed is on the net

I remember the outcry when we had loads of decisions against Spurs at home(Floppychops was manager). Durham had a whole fucking show about it! The media has been less than scathing in this instance, hasn't it?
