I think people underestimate how much the football media establishment were behind Frank.

Every subtle dig Frank took at Ange was lapped up and cheered, but now Tudor isn’t allowed to notice the players aren’t fit and have bad habits?

Fuck off

And if somehow he turns this tanker around, they’ll change their tune immediately.

A bunch of fair weather pricks. Media in general really is the lowest of the low.

St Totteringham's Day: Arsenal set to celebrate earlier than ever

The day it becomes impossible for Spurs to finish above Woolwich in the Premier League, St Totteringham's Day is set to arrive earlier than ever.

I assume a fair number of Gooners work there.

How can we ever shake off this bias? If it ain't Romero it would be someone else they'll manufacture into a reckless killer.

Then the other bias where a 2 handed shove by Etikite that is a foul isn't given but Gabriel's ridiculous dive is deemed a foul. What the hell is that?
Is Muani a Kung Fu master? So his tiny touch is actually a brutal life threatening impact?!

It's so blatant, it is now like watching WWE for me. Soon as you see the dive, you know as a Tottenham fan it's 100% they will not give us the goal. It's just sickening.

It's not covering up how crap we are, but goals are literally the only thing that matters right now, I don't like people saying it's not important. They may have got jittery, already they'd made mistakes and the stadium would have been electric at 2-2. None of us knows what could have happened after, maybe we spawn our way to a draw or even nick it... Or God himself steps down to score a couple and forces the officials to give them to his favorite son Eze, the ratcunt. My point is we shouldn't have been robbed of finding out!

We need a manager who is going to call this shit out.

He needs to come out and say that we're continuously on the end of shite decisions and that there is a bias in the refereeing and commentary if matches.

If Tudor did something like that and Tottenham paid the fine, then when things like the two Gabriel incidents happening take on a totally different meaning and in his post match presser he could just say "What did I tell you?"

It wouldn't fix it overnight, but putting these ridiculous decisions firmly in the spotlight would definitely make refs think twice before automatically deciding that a decision should always go against Spurs.

The goal, the foul by Gabriel on Muani when he was last man......these need to be highlighted every week by our manager.

Yeah I agree it does seem to be the most direct way, and I was a bit disappointed he didn't mention anything about those 2 things which were huge moments that could have tilted things in our favor. If I was our manager I would break records for getting fines haha

I know this journalist is anti Tottenham but this is really something you would expect a teenage blogger to post not a grown man …. Pathetic

Where did Woolwich put their St Totteringham trophy last season and was it bigger or smaller than the one Spurs got for winning an actual real competition?

Exactly this. Fans need be all over social media hounding the PGMOL and standing up for the club as well. The bias against us is the biggest reason we are under achieving this year.

If that second goal was allowed to stand......

Then it's a totally different game, our backs would be up, we'd be confident and Woolwich would have been shitting themselves.

And the Gabriel one when it was 0-0......if the ref doesn't bottle it and sends Gabriel off, again, totally different game.


Because of these two decisions, especially when we thought we'd equalised, you could literally see our team just throw their hands up and say what's the point.


We need a manager who is not going to be afraid of stating the glaringly obvious differences in how different teams gets reffed

It really does irk me something bad. I'm not thinking we'd have strolled to the points if either those two things happened, I'm so frustrated we did not get the justice and the chance to find out what might have happened.

The stadium would have been rocking. People might laugh but our stadium is formidable when it's got something to grasp onto. A big result could turn the tide for any team struggling.
 
Our club need to be putting pressure on the PL and PGMO. Force them to come out and explain their decisions. Make them show their homework just like Liverpool and the others do.

It’s a fucking joke at this point. We are continuously reffed a completely different way to the rest of the league every weekend.

We fucking burn money paying these fraud footballers every week. I’d rather spend it on a fine if it’ll get the refs nervous about refereeing our matches.
