Momo

[Guest ritchie_50]

I can seriously see Momo picking up about 20 yellow cards this season. Every match this season he's getting a yellow card for nothing challenges and will end up missing a good half a dozen games through suspension. Its unfair because they have been unwarranted.

What was his one on Sat for?!

He was booked for complaining that Hibbert's handball clearance in the penalty area should have led to a penalty rather than a corner. The fool.

Andy Johnson was so incensed by Momo's lack of sportsmanship that he finally snapped in the 87th minute and understandably belted the ball away after the whistle in honourable protest.

Honorable, indeed. I think it's time for a letter of commendation to the FA for Mr. Johnson's protest. It takes a man of character to restrain from protesting straight away and Mr. Johnson has that character in abundance.

That is the stuff that really really f***s me off about refs. They can't take a protest when a pen was as clear as that?

Maddening. I think we should appeal that one, to be honest.

 

And get one for Andy Johnson.

The refs feel it legitmises their wrong decision if they book someone who protests. They must know they got it wrong pretty much straight away but have to cover it up.

[Coyler]

And look doubly stupid in the post-match analysis.

 

Although if you look at it, that doesn't look like Graham Poll not giving those penalties, which is the main thing.

[Euphrates]

Ah come on, Sissoko didn't just protest the foul, in the commentary (I didn't notice myself, too busy blinding at the big screen and kicking the wall) they said he touched Poll while protesting.

In fairness I'd say he must have kicked him in the goolies for Poll to have noticed it.

does my head in when players protest... I bet the managers are more pissed off with the players for that than the ref for missing ths incident.. Was Poll ever likely to give us a penalty after giving us the corner? Not a chance. Like Zamora yesterday, moaned and moaned, got a yellow, then carried on moaning. Just shut the f*** up and get on with it.

Exactly.

 

What annoys me the most tho is when players wave imaginery cards, how unsporting is that?! I play in a Pro 5 side and we've a hot headed team mate who did exactly that butfair play to the ref who said "How about I give you a yellow instead!?" and gave him a yellow!!
