I'm having a hard time picturing the Henry one specifically but I remember a spate of goals from quickly taken free-kicks around that time. If I remember right, it was Richard Keys superlatives all round when the big teams were doing it, but by the time it had filtered down and players from unfashionable clubs were giving it a go, yellow cards were being dished out left, right and centre because they weren't waiting for the ref's whistle. Funny that. In an attempt to lighten the mood following our miserable derby day exploits, I'd like to present my first ever nomination for the "footballers who look like lesbians" archives - QPR 'keeper and serial banned substance abuser, Paddy Kenny. Have we got enough to start a team yet?
D'oh!
Attwell, Clattenburg and Dowd (amongst others) make me wonder if the refs actually know the rules of the game or just make it up as they go along, because I sure did learn a few new ones yesterday... Apparently, you have no right to moan if an opposition player commits a red card offence right in front of you. Dowd, having watched Coloccini try to seperate Elmohamady's head from his shoulders in the fifth minute, seemed more intent on warning Cattermole for momentarily losing his rag. It almost reminded me of one of those ancient "You are the Ref" quiz questions, though I guarantee the correct answer wouldn't have been to award us a free-kick for said incident, virtually square up to our captain and then not bother even speaking to the original offender. He also has this intensely irritating habit of taking the red card out of his pocket every time he issues a yellow one (and vice versa), as if to orchestrate the crowd and initiate some kind of drama whenever a foul is committed. In short, the guy annoys me no end. But it's also a measure of the embarrassing, spineless performance we served up that Dowd's pathetic posturing had no bearing on the result. In the end, we were lucky not to have conceded 10. If United don't have a fixture on Saturday, maybe Rio Ferdinand could take charge of our game against Stoke. Not only does he seem to fancy himself as some sort of refereeing oracle, he's apparently recognised by the likes of Mark Clattenburg as a qualified official.
Never fear Joe, the thread is fully spoiler-free so far.
Surprised nobody at the FA has noticed what an obvious attention seeker and grade-A berk Phil Dowd is. Yesterday was one of the worst, most pathetic, "oh please won't everybody look at me" refereeing performances I've seen in a fair while. He comes across like a hammy actor in an amateur dramatics company who tries to steal every scene and ends up ruining the play. No excuses about the result though. As much as it pains me to say it, we deserved a kicking and we got one. Bruce sent a team of kids into a lion's den (while players who lit up the World Cup kept the bench warm) and they were blown away by tougher and more determined opposition.
