Refs got it wrong in your opinion.

I said it last night, I will be SHOCKED if the card is overturned.
This space used to be more fun...

It's a tough question really as we did enough to keep a clean sheet.

As much as I think you probably deserved to win the game (got everything right except put it in the net), I think we deserved a point? I know that doesn't answer the question but it's the best I got!

I feel that result really hurt us. We badly needed a win at this point, especially at home. It's like everyone just wants to hand the title to Manure.....

Maybe Cheese secretly still goes to games that we aren't aware of? We'll know if we lose our next away match... :shifty:

It's the opposite for me. I watched the match and I thought, for the first time in years: this guys are actually way better than ManUre. I actually think that from now on we are going to start a serious run.

If we drew 1-1 I'd probably agree we didn't deserve a point.

keep a clean sheet by having nearly the hole team back desperately trying to get the ball and somehow not conceed. Ye were a disgrace to football last night you can't argue that.


How can we be a disgrace. We played to the rules and Arsenal didn't!

you were not a disgrace
how you set your team up is your business not ours
the disgrace was the referee failing to add the time on for legitimate stoppages let alone time wasting as long as that goes on it will remain a legitimate tactic to use.
our broken rule was punished sagna was sent off

I agree.
It may have hurt us points-wise but psychologically it was a boost in a way.
Our players can watch that back and see that they were by far the better team and also that it was some of the best attacking football we've played this season in the first half.
They'll know that if they repeat that performance against Manure/other teams the goals will come.

Definitely. It's not like you have come short against a poor defensive team. We have the best defence in the league as it stands and that's with other teams having to play 1 or 2 games to catch us up, which can only make there goals conceded worse.
