Remove any bias? Probably bollocks anyway.
We do concede a lot of free kicks but we only foul in safe areas, and they tend to be minor things like you said. Think we are third from top in the fouls league table. Only us and Man City not had a red card all season.
I don't by into this "bias" bollocks anyway, for or against us, or anyone else. Refs have good and bad games - Moss had a shocker yesterday IMO but I don't think it's because he wanted either team to win more than the other.
And I presume like AA Gill, Frank Skinner etc you can remember the time and date of your last one
If you are a genuine alcoholic then I apologise but, like a few on here, I think you're a Gooner, Maggot, Multi, Troll and an embarrassment
ochfacepalm:
Neither do I... it's preciesly BECAUSE he was only looking out for himself that he dared TRY to even it up... in case the nasty home supporters didn't like him and hit him with their fucking clappers in the car park!
The fact it was 2-2 isn't such a bad thing... ANY points dropped are only worth summit if WE can take advantage. ... but fuck me, 1-2 down in the 94th min with 10 men it suddenly felt like a point gained for them!
I read somewhere that the RFA approached PL clubs pre-season about this issue and were told to leave it alone rather than punish - ie, clubs felt it was one of those things that everyone does (it is), and was, in effect, part of the game. I don't agree, but the big problem is that every now and again a ref pops up and enforces it, whilst not enforcing at other times, even in the same game, as we saw yesterday. For all the criticism Huth gets (probably correctly as he really does push it - literally) he has also had his shirt pulled off over his head, leaving it in the hands of the defender - arguably the most obvious penalty of all time but not given (although it was pretty funny).
I don't think Moss was biased either way
Just incompetent
That was one of the worst refereeing performances of the season IMO
Shearer was right on MOTD last night in that it's no use making a stand on grappling in the area 34 games into the season
It's getting ridiculous now as is the diving and really needs to be looked at close season
Maybe take a leaf out of rugby league's book and have a video ref to look at penalties for instance.
The ref on the field gives the pen and it's reviewed.
Had this been in operation in yesterday's game LC's pen would never have stood!
Almost felt sorry for WH
I said "almost" Sth Stand Billy
If it hadn't have affected us I wd be saying "fuck 'em"

Cheers mate. I'm glad my sobriety amuses you.
Anyway, I'm a Spurs supporter. My dad is a Londoner and brought me up in the faith. Born in 82, I've supported Spurs all my life. I was mascot for a friendly game against Hearts when I was 7. Before the game I kicked the ball about with Mabbutt and Nayim. All the players were friendly apart from big Erik in goal; he was a grumpy fucker. I've since learned that's just a Norwegian disposition.
I have a magnificent cockerel tattoo on my left leg. I am bringing my two young boys up in the Tottenham faith as well.
I can assure you I am not gooner, multi, nor troll. Maggot is up to you

LOL at Shearer of all people talking about tackling what goes in the six yard box. He was the master of flailing elbows and digs.
Could really do with Newcastle just taking the hint and getting relegated already.
Really don't want to go into the last day with them needing something to stay up. Saying that, Sunderland and Norwich have easily got the tougher run ins.
You know you're investing a bit too much into it when you're considering the other end of the table to see if your last game of the season will be tougher than it needs to be!!

But even if they say "leave it alone"*, the refs have to draw the line somewhere, or the Huth shirtpulling will soon be normal, along with shortspulling, and before long we'll risk seeing Huth and Morgan performing double anal on Chadli, our sexy dolphin. Rape will lead to murder. Still no penalty?
*which is fucking stupid, but I guess it has to be like that untill there's a collective international resolution against it. Otherwise English teams would risk being to naive in the box compared to other teams in international competitions.
With the exception of the goalkeeper having his team's trust, the merit points you make can be either fully or partially explained by a PED doping program.
They have team togetherness because the doping means they have more energy and need fewer players. Ergo, the players are more familiar with less rotation.
They know their individual jobs. But if a shit point you make here but, again, if your job is to run like fuck for 90+ minutes without tiring then doping would help.
They work hard. Need I unpack this one for you? You should be getting the gist by now.
They are fast on the counter attack. Hmmm, wonder why?
Vardy is a good finisher. Yes he is. But his ability to get into spaces and run the fuck out of the channels and in behind defenders is best understood in the context of a club-wide doping program.
I'm afraid it's much more plausible than simply subscribing to the idea that the stars have aligned for them. I know people don't like the suggestion of cheating going on in the game, especially the English game, but it reeks of it this year with Leicester.
Wow. That's quite the projection. Poor Chadli!
I didn't say I agreed with it, and it surprised me that the clubs decided that. Like you, I'd prefer it stamped out - but consistently. Imagine how pissed you'd be if Vertongen is suddenly penalised tonight after both teams have been at it (unpunished) all game?
You do know you've fucking jinxed it now? Guaranteed red card tonight.
:lamelashock:
Also a bit rich coming from you, Arc. At least I'm not on foxes talk wasting my time arguing with that lot like you.
It all reminds me of that Psychological Projection article I sent you. You really should turn away from foxes net for a minute and read that article. Might help you mate
The sooner those Toon cunts are down the better. Talk about a club with a misplaced sense of entitlement
Wish I had your confidence mate
Where have I posted anything implying that your sobriety amuses me?
Not getting into a debate with you as I think you're a fucking idiot!
Really impressed with your " magnificent" cockerel tattoo though
