We truly have been fucked over. Not saying we would have won either game but vs 10 men 0-2 down at Arsenal we have a shot of getting back into the game. Against Everton I’d have put good money on us winning that. Fucking bullshit

A yellow card against Villa is basically immunity from prosecution for the rest of the game.

Last team to have a player sent off for two bookings against us was Wednesbury Old Athletic*.

In the old days these things evened themselves out...doesn't seem that way anymore.

How can you be the most affected team by poor officials decisions for 2 years in a row????

We haven’t had a penalty all season either.

Apologies are Not Admissions of Liability: While the PGMOL frequently issues apologies for "significant human error," these are acknowledgments of mistakes rather than legal admissions that would allow for lawsuits.

The two decisions weren’t even close that from the naked eye you could have seen them the other way. It’s clear and obvious that both are straightforward second yellows. Useless twats

Fortunately, because we have been winning games some of the performances of the referees have gone largely overlooked. The referee we had on Sunday was absolute Tosh. He made some awful decisions and she should not be refereeing at that standard of the game. Complete knob.

To be fair to the refs, their first priority is to let the games breathe.

Wasn’t so bothered about the 2nd yellow it was the free kick from 20 yards that I wanted.
