Shocking Refs

Status
Not open for further replies.
I've beaten you about 7 times in this thread. It's just ridiculous now.

is that what its about for you iffy old son? seeing as how you are sooo bored, stack the posts up coz all i can recall is you on the floor with my foot on your face, sideliner rolling up an echo and pissing in your pocket and ihaters going through your wallet................you got owned
 
we are beginning to sound like Liverpooh last year, we are top of the unlucky league, top of the cheated by the ref league, top of the possession league

It did occur me to me, that we've basically swapped places with them from where we were this time last year. We're dominating games and somehow not managing to actually win them.

And they're just ****.

Unbelievable.

As opposed to what? the Evertonians way? Which is what? ignoring these decisions and the fact we've been the better team in most of these games and instead just ripping into our players? No thanks.
That's not what we should be about at all. If our boys are getting screwed by ref's it needs to be said without someone claiming its kopite behavior, one of the stupidest things I have heard that...
Stop sticking up for our players when they are getting unfairly slated for draws that should be wins its kopite behavior is what your saying there.. My answer to that is no I won't. Ill defend the players when its right to do so against posters that are saying its all their fault we are only getting draws, and I have a long list a few pages back showing exactly why it is currently right to do so.
Also what kind of responses would you be expecting in a thread entitled shocking refs?
 
Like sgit this is kopite behavuour. Have a word with yourselves, they are a nonsensical cult, this is genuine and appropriate frustration for some terrible refeering inconsistencies
 
This season isn't as bad as the one where we had to wait until 10 minutes before the end of the last game to get our 1st pen. I think we got 3 or so in our Euro games as well so there was clearly something about the interpretation of English refs - especially the unfair reputation that Johnson was given by Warnock & Wenger.

I'd like to see one of our players get a bit cute & have a word with the ref. I remember Gerrard doing it a few years ago - he told the ref what the Sheff Utd (I think) player was going to do at a corner, he did it and the ref gave a pen. Maybe if a senior pro like Jagielka or Distin could do the same, we'd get the benefit.
 

noticing the emotion and activity on this thread and similar comments on other forums - this topic certainly needs more debating and not less - calling each other names and trying to kill the thread will only highten the frustration experienced by a large number of fans - where there is smoke there usually is a fire the old folks used to say -
this should not turn into a you against us battle but should seriously determine to what extent bad and inconsistant decisions by match officials led to disappointing results , dashed hopes and a downward spiral on the table -
coaches might lose their jobs , players may be sold and sides can be relegated on something silly like goal difference at the end of a season - so every goal counts -
every possible effort should be made to get to the right decision - if that requires the introduction of technology then so be it -
in the tough competitive world of professional sport nice guys come second - money is a [Poor language removed] - and human error must be eliminated especially if it is not governed by the law of averages - (eg a loaded dice )
we are not only fighting for Everton to get a fair deal - we want it for every club - the playing field should be level for ALL - not downhill for some and uphill for others -
i also think West Brom played uphill againt Stoke yesterday with quite a few dodgy decisions going against them - to such an extent that even the commentators started laughing about it at some stage

ace post mate. but sadly it`ll go over some peoples heads. the `technology` debate only seems to get wheeled out at the odd time LFC get a wrong call, probably because the media are all about the sky4 clubs. video evidence will never come in, its even used selectively with retrospective bans like suarez being over-looked with all his stamping
 
thanks for the support zed - some philosopher ( sorry english is my second language ) said :- if you come with a novel idea : first they laugh at you ,
then they get angry at you ,
then they insult you ,
then they attack you
and then they agree with you -
so don't give up the fight for justice mate - justice for all because two wrong decisions does not add up to a right one
