Premiership Games 21 & 22 January 2012

[Nicey]

According to the radio the team at the top of the league have just got away with a definite elbow and a definite stamp on the head.

Referees in this country impartial...

Both were not seen both will get done

[SimonNo7]

So is that Ballatelli and Lescott out for out game on Weds .. For those off the ball incidents ?

Probably not, the Premier League or whoever is supposed to be in charge will probably find some subjective reason to ignore it...

[SimonNo7]

Both were not seen both will get done

Let's hope so, but I do not have a lot of faith in the authorities... maybe one will get charged!

[Gibbo]

I dont think Ballotellis was deliberate

[Craig_H]

whos model do you sugguest then? peter risdales?

Why do we have to copy someone else's model?

If you insist that we do, i'd suggest Arsenal's, which has brought CL football every year, might be more apt than the Spurs one which has yielded it once.

I missed the Lescott incident but the commentator seems convinced he will be done fore arm smash to the face .. I just seen the Ballatelli stomp ..yep he made a very obvious stomp he will get done for dangerous play ... Roll on Monday

From the BBC Website game commentry:

1512: City's turn to enjoy a bit of possession but their attempt to build up some pressure ends when Scott Parker blocks Mario Balotelli's shot and is accidentally caught by the striker's flailing leg. Replays show Balotelli caught Parker with his heel afterwards too, but I'm not sure that could be classed as intentional. Anyway, Parker is having treatment on the sidelines... and has just jogged back on.

What a miss by Defoe

And how **** is Savic

[Gibbo]

Savic is ****e.

Defoe has to score there

[Gaz]

How the **** did defoe miss that

[SimonNo7]

The Lescott incident from the BBC Website game commentry:

1503: A good spell by Tottenham, this. Gael Clichy has to improvise to head Gareth Bale's bouncing cross over his own bar with Aaron Lennon waiting behind him. From the resulting corner, Joleon Lescott tangles with Younes Kaboul and is lucky referee Howard Webb doesn't spot him throw an arm into the Tottenham defender's face. Play continues, and Aaron Lennon jinks into the area before his deflected low shot is saved by the diving Joe Hart.

Lescott may get charged, Balotelli probably won't.

How the **** did defoe miss that

He wasn't quick enough

[Craig_H]

I hope to **** Savic is playing on Wednesday night. He makes David Luiz look reliable.

[Gaz]

Penalty to City
