I thought we didnt care what anyone in the media wrote about us or said about us? Who cares whether he thinks it was or wasnt a penalty or sending off?
I'm confused???

Very disappointing and somewhat unprofessional to criticise a fellow referee in this way. Had the same comments been made by a manager, then no doubt they would have been fined OK it's an opinion, the referees report hasn't been made public as far as I know, so it is totally unacceptable to air his views immediately Surely the FA DO have to ask the referee / linesman if he saw the incident. To be fair I think the contact did deserve a booking which may indicate that both officials missed it, but intent is very difficult to assess, indeed there were several robust challenges from each team. This seems to be trial by media and the FA should stick to the laws of the game. Unless he or any other pundit is spouting beautiful prose about Stoke City, he is a moron right ??? Some fans just need a reality check !

Can't ever remember him saying anything good about us, not that his opinion counts for anything. Fuck him

I don't give two Arsenal away kit coloured shits what the media thinks about us but I do care when there is a blatant attempt to undermine the success of us beating a top side. That is a little contradictory but hopefully you know what I mean.

I read Graham Poll's autobiography on a long train journey once because I was bored. The guy has no concept of self awareness and an ego bigger than Palacios' waist after a Cartwright/Scholes pizza party. After finishing it my first thought was this would be a perfect book to give to aspiring referees to show them how NOT to officiate or present themselves to others.
