Guess Work and SuperHero X- Ray Vision


I Got Two Babe

Two new forms of officialdom were unleashed on the unsuspecting football world yesterday at Craven Cottage, guess work and an Assistant Referee with Superhero X-Ray vision.

Yes I am bitter and yes I am angry. Again we were witness to another game of one rule for us and one rule for them. Firstly lets get the accolades out of the way. For their defensive display Fulahm deserved the three points and if 36 year old Mark Crossley didn't win the Man of the Match award then I am a Dutchman's Uncle.

There's no doubt about it for Chelsea's disallowed equaliser, Didier Drogba controlled the ball with his arm before steering it into an empty net. How though could referee Mike Dean disallow it if he couldn't see it? How could the Assistant Referee tell Mike Dean that Drogba handled the ball, through a crowd of players? Why didn't Dean blow up immediately? Why didn't Dean book Drogba? Why didn't the Assistant Referee wave his pretty flag immediately? Answer is they didn't have a clue.

The decision was made for them by a screaming pack of howling dogs crying 'Handball, handball, handball,' namely Crossely, Knight, Volz, Boa Morte and Ian Pearce. Player power made up the minds of the two officials and really it stinks. Stinks to the effect that players are now beginning to sway the minds of the official by ganging up on them to get the decision they want.

Will Fulham be charged for 'failing to control their players?' Nah course they won't!!

ONE RULE FOR THEM AND ONE RULE FOR US

40 YEARS A BLUE!!
