(banghead) (banghead) My blood is fecking boiling Kay & Austin...bookings...yes straight reds my arse Anyway lets take the positives Pikeys scored against the run of play, mainley due to defensive indecision. Dee dah bstard sends off austin for a 6 of one 1/2 dozen of other as pikey winger falls over boundary wall. Lots of chances either way with best falling to conlon who was denied by a good save from pikey keeper and hayes who could nit keep his header down. I think its fair to say we dominated the rest of the game up until dee dah decided to redress the balance once again. Kay makes a challenge on the touchline which looked to deserve a yellow..in comes rennie..off marches Kay. We are still in it till feckin Mulligan (of all the rubbish cast offs) blasts a screamer into the top corner. Ho Hum we play out the rest of the game as best we can but with 9 against 12 its a bit tough. still pikeys only manage 2 despite all the advantages they hold.Redss mostly can hold their heads up with the exception of Messers Nardiello & Richards who quite simply are not good enough and lazy. I was so irate I was giving the pikey fans a piece of my mind as I walked home..much aginst my normal mild mannered nature. Pikeys wont get Rennie every week so they will be lucky if they finish outside the bottom 6. MOTM Big Bazza Conlon..take that. Won 8/10 headers, held the ball up well despite little support.
Ritchie has just said on Praise and Grumble that he's watched the replay of Kays sending off and he wont be pursuing it.
I think that was because... A referee could say that it was a sending off. Ritchie was basically saying it was extremely harsh, but some refs give em.
He doesn't like us I know that because I know someone who has played against him and rennie told him as much. Its a total disgace that they let him ref this game imo.
Fckin ell Spartacus What's with the sense talking? Absolutely correct on all fronts IMO. There's been people on here slating Conlon! Quoting something from the radio about him having "huffed and puffed but never looked dangerous". Well I'd rather have that than players who put in less effort, less heart and look even less fckin dangerous. Which is exactly what Nardiello, Richards and (to a lesser extent) Hayes all managed to do.
I think austin lost it cos the pikey winger was continually getting past him and making him look a t### very unprofessional thing to do dingle
Not the only one with an elbow in the face. Shuker as well, and bo yellow to the Pikey. Mind you, I thomk Rennie forgot to pack his yellow card.
Austin lost it becasue Coppinger Slapped him... in the face. A fact conviently ignored by the inept offical from Sheffield. Hand bags stuff. A yellow a piece would have been the fair decision.
