1 point better than 0 point, but truth be

[Paul Marin]

Lazie, once again, you are off the mark. Did Rio start the game? What about "IN ANY GIVEN GAME" don't you understand. Even so, the fact of the matter is that the issue has nothing to do with consistency but whether the ref interpreted the law appropriately. I realise this is lost on you. Nothing new.

I stand corrected on Anton. Even so, you are still assuming that a card was warranted for Richardson, which Peter tiad explain why Wiley's decision is suspect. Up to now, you haven't proven diddly that Richardson wasn't kicking the ball back to the spot of the infraction. That's the essence of it all Lazie. Nothing more, nothing less. Wiley was over zealous and failed the common sense test.

I didn't even address the Anton Ferdinand card as it is another example of obfuscation by certain posters. The point is the SECOND card that Richardson received was CRITICAL to the outcome. Had Anton received a second yellow I would have scrutinised it the same way I did Richardson's. Some posters either obviously are missing the point or need to check whether they have a few screws loose!

Just showing how much of a hypocrite you are. Ferdinand got a yellow for kicking away the ball, yet its an over zealous move by the ref to card Richardson for the same offense? Obviously yuh tek yuhself way too serious. Paul may be impressed ... yuh me yuh being comical.

[Peter R]

You my esteemed friend need to go back to Grade school for a refresher in reading comprehension. Of course you want everything spelled out in every grimy detail and even then you behave like a dunce. I know you can do better.

So I have no quarrel with the ref on Anton cah him kick wey de ball. IMHO Ricahrdson DID NOT "kick wey" de ball!!! Yu mussi never play football in yu life.

BBC Match report: With time running out, United were offered a glimmer of hope as Richardson foolishly got himself sent off when he kicked the ball away and was cautioned for the second time.

Skysports Match Report: Sunderland were reduced to ten men when former United man Kieran Richardson was sent off for a second bookable offence after kicking the ball away.

Soccernet Commentary: Valencia beats Richardson, who then hands him off. Richardson then kicks the ball away, and the referee has no option but to send him and his pigtail off.

The FSC feed for the game, the commentators said the ref has to be consistent after seeing Richardson's action.


Believe what yuh want bredren.

They are entitled to their OPINION as I am to mine. Thanks.

Okay - I believe you are completely incapable of being objective. Bottom line - at the latrine, there are one set of rules for the scum, another for everyone else; for who among us (besides you Lazie) believes that Wiley would have given a second yellow to any manure player under the same situation as Richardson in front of 75000 screaming scum? Right. Sure.

Some points for the rest of us to consider:

1. Richardson kicked the ball about 2 yards from the player who was to take the free kick

2. the kick was back towards where it should be taken from (all now, Lazie cyan prove didly that it was "kicked away")

3. In the first half berbatov practically hoofed the ball away and didn't get booked yet Anton did - BOTH should have been booked, not just Anton.

A so it roll at the toilet...nothing new.
