Their defense looks very fragile.

Wonderful Cabaye finish.

Let's save everyone the time and for the moment cast history aside and assume that he will sign.... CTs initial appraisal will be that he's not very good and that Shane is better, whilst everyone suggests that he needs to be given a chance to settle. Fast forward to a time when he's had a chance to settle and CT's appraisal will be that he's a quality player and yet another sign that Ashley is a footballing genius.

If it was Cisse he too took a swing at it - missed the ball though. Then Taylor hit his shot wide. It was offside when Cisse made a play at the ball. Matters bought though obviously.

Actually I think that one was ok. Taylor himself wasn't offside but our other player who took a swing at the ball was. Game over

Exactly. As I've said before there is absolutely no reason why everyone except the referee should know the correct decision when an incident occurs (or immediately after it). As it stands that is often the case and as a result we're left with some very poor refereeing errors.

Alternately the ref may invent some reason to disallow their goal.

Yanga-M'Biwa is clearly still a little upset. Silly kicking out there.

Hung drawn and quartered. But seriously walking off would have been a horrible way to react.

It was.

Subtle from Williamson there...

Nicely threaded ball from Sissoko there, heavy touch back from Remy unfortunately.

Joe Hart having a lend suggesting that he was impeded from diving for the ball.

That's the best explanation I've heard for it thus far.

I wonder if there will be anyone, apart from Mike Jones, who makes a case for that decision being right.

Might as well revert back to the old offside rule if they're going to enforce it like that anyway.

Exactly. If you're that COCK sure that you know that the keeper was impeded then why ask the linesman in the first place? Was trying to defer his intended decision onto the linesman (who in the words of Pardew was right) but when the linesman correctly adjudged it as a goal the insipid twat still went with what he wanted which was seemingly to draw all attention away from the match and the players and onto the officiating.

Well said Pardew.

Ref lost control of the game through their own incompetence, he'll be dying for half time hoping the atmosphere does down.

Jon 'Big Club' Champion here.

Gutless from the commentary to not speak out against this decision.

This is seriously ridiculous. Livid here. Destroyed the match this absolute cunt.

What kind of cunt takes that goal off someone, incorrectly no less.

Fuck off there is no way that decision is correct.

Holy sheet Tiote... Robbeddddddd
