PL games 22nd December

I really don't know what bores me more: the ironing or the City game.

City are so frustrating to watch, especially when they're the only side capable of keeping United from winning the league.

Oh and Mancini is ****ing clueless

West ham very hard done by. Never a red card in a million years. The refereeing at the moment is woeful.

[Kenneth]

And in injury time the ref tries to even it up by sending off Gibson. Pathetic. West ham crowd singing 'you don't know what you're doing' after he sent an Everton player off.

[Lee]

Peterborough 5 - 4 Bolton at the moment. Madness.

[Bender]

Man city 1-0 reading
Barry

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

That Barry goal would have been disallowed for most strikers for climbing on the defender.

He's English not Foreign that's why

That Barry goal would have been disallowed for most strikers for climbing on the defender.

I agree that more often than not, the verdict would go to the defender and result in a free out, but the 'climb' was more of a result of Shorey's attempt to impede Barry IMO.
Most refs would probably give a free out, and most certainly the explanation from the ref that Barry 'hung' in the air is complete twaddle, but if McDermott wants to vent his frustration at anyone, it should probably be his defender's handling of the threat.
