[Albion] Premier League 9-10/12/23

[Eric the meek]

I almost feel sorry for Palace.

(Normal service will be resumed shortly).

 

[Bodian]

In off a Palace arse

Are you simply meaning a Palace player? Or actually off his backside?

 

[Steve in Japan]

I can't shed any tears for Ayew despite the pundits views....not after the Dunk issue the other week.

Both

I don't ha ha but it's totally random when the refs card the slowing down of a free kick l, hardly ever against the big clubs, and the second looked no more than a free kick.
Eff 'em I say

 

[Grizz]

I'm struggling to hear the commentators over the wall of noise coming from the Holmesdale end.

 

[Stato]

Commentators have been bleating, but Palace have been using the 'foul to stop a counter' tactic the whole game and for once the ref's had the balls to give the standard yellow card for the offence to someone who had already been booked.

Evidence ?

I agree with the commentators. The combination of both offences doesn't warrant a sending off.

Would we say that if one of our players had been sent off ?

 

[Dibdab]

Shocking decision to send off Ayew for that challenge. Obviously hard to feel sorry for them but there is no way the ref would send off a Liverpool player for that imo. Unconscious big team bias in full effect again

 

[Justice]

Amazing a Liverpool player could have ended Ferguson’s career and it’s a yellow ffs.

This is NSC land, no evidence required

The foul by Konate a few minutes later was more deserving of a card, yet elicited little more than a smirk from the referee

 

[Stato]

Ayew knew he was on a yellow and was stupid to commit a deliberate foul. When Dunk was stupid and swore at the ref, most of us, including our manager, admitted that Dunk had been stupid.

 

[Brok]

1-2

But he hasn't been sent off for that challenge. He's been booked for that challenge.

More fool him if he commits a bookable offence when already on a yellow.

 

[Steve in Japan]

1-2, great goal Harvey Elliott

 

[jimhigham]

Oh, joy! They've let a lead slip. A player set off with a suspension incoming. Their keeper's picked up a niggle and come off.

Mind the gap, chaps.

 

[MTSeagulls]

Clinging onto the hope that they seem to have let in a few late goals this season.

I have evidence of that though

 

[Coldeanseagull]

palace bring on their second string keeper who's only played in the monkey tennis league. This is where the keeper rotation works
