Thread: Tottenham Hotspur v Man Utd Discussion

Did anyone else see in the first half when ronaldo got taken down by Woody, ronaldo then talked to Webb and looked like he was going to cry and then Webb gave Woody a yellow card! It really was 12 v 11 on the pitch.

there is no doubt in my mind that the referee ripped the heart out of us yesterday with the penalty decesion ,which frankly was a joke, and he also showed lack of guts aswell in not booking paul scholes when it was still 1-2 for 2 or 3 bad tackles in quick succsesion ,man utd didnt look like scoring untill they got that penalty, but what happened yesterday at old trafford is history now , and in the prem league now anything can happen ,take the liverpool and scum match the other evening as an example the way that game went with liverpool scoring with the last kick of the game or us equalising earlier on in the season at the scum you just never know what way games gonna end up.
there are issues about how we seemed to throw the towel in after utd equalised ,i know the boys were gutted because of the stupid and embarassing refereeing decisions but the heads went down a bit and you cant afford to let teams like utd get under your skin like that, but i think and i hope we can put this match down as a learning experience and if we find ourselves in the same situation again we will rise above it. there were certainally positives in yesterdays game for us especially our 1st half performance.

Yeah we all know its a definite no penalty ..but the lads should of stood up & played stronger coz of that decision & not let it eat into their heads thus then crumbling.
But when going to ole trafford you know that your never gonna get a fair ref ..just like when mendes scored from half way line & the officials cost us three points which would of got us champions league football a few years back.
The penalty was the changing point & was the spark that they needed ,we would definitely gone on & won the game if it was not for that disgraceful decision.
But remember we played some of the worlds best players off the park in the first half on their own turf ..i am looking forward to next seasons campaign & us adding to squad after getting rid of the dead wood.

I left you guys the entire game plan to beat united. Go read it and compare it to how the game panned out....I scripted it almost verbatim! Anyhoo....tottenham needs work especially in the area of fitness and some real basics at this level which they are sorely lacking...better luck next time lads!

BTW...that rubbish is not a penalty because the player was clearly not in control of the ball when the challenge is made....whether the goal keeper touched him or the ball first is irrelevant because the ball had already skipped ahead of Carrick and thus any challenge wud be deemed 50/50.....so give him an Oscar for acting but not a penalty!
