Have to say, I really enjoy Bob Booker on the highlights. Probably get quite annoying if he was on for 90 minutes, but genuinely entertaining for 15 minutes
His laptop which was recording the radio commentary stopped recording for some reason so he had to settle for Humphries and Brooker again...
I genuinely have no idea how Bob Brooker managed to keep his job, he's repetitive, dull, can barely utter a coherent sentence without throwing a cockney rhyming slang in there and interrupts Tim when he's talking. Worse than Aspinall if you ask me!

Would of been good to see it again but it would of only been pivotal if he had been sent off surely!
I'd quite like to see that tackle again and see if it was as bad as it looked at the time. From where I was it looked like both feet came off the ground in a late lunging tackle and I was stunned it wasn't a straight red
Agreed. Commenter and bob booker AWFUL. Sling the radio commentary on there
Should have been a red. I felt the officials knew it and therefore gave us everything thereafter including the penalty and the weird corner for the second goal. Unusually I think the fact they bottled it still had an effect on the game but I'd still like to see the incident again. It was indoubtedly a major talking point.
Ah, right. They felt guilty!
Have you never heard of a ref tryinbg to "level it up"? Do you not think previous decisions influence others? I know it shouldn't happen, but it blatantly does. Check the thread about the ref being a homer from Saturday. I'm not the only one who noticed that everything went our way after THAT tackle.
I was sat right in line with where the tackle was made, albeit in the WSU. I thought at the time that it was ONE FOOTED although the studs on that foot WERE showing. I've not seen a replay of it since to see if i was right. I commented to the couple of guys around me that the reason he may not have been sent off was if the ref saw it as one footed rather than two, but i'm not sure of the rules in that much detail.
I also called Ulloa's first goal as an OG at the time. I still can't tell from Seagulls player if it was or not.
Right in front of me, that. Red card all day long - how the ref can see it, then speak to his linesman, then still issue a yellow, is completely beyond me.
Just below the knee, studs up, on the shin of Hammond's standing leg. Very lucky he didn't snap it like a twig - an absolutely cast-iron red card, but he won't even face further action 'coz the ref 'dealt' with it during the game.
In the end, though, I was quite pleased he stayed on to 'enjoy' the result in full.
My mate said the same and still thinks it was an OG...
It was difficult to see in a crowded box , the camera behind the goal clearly shows Spanish Len getting his noggin on the ball.
