   Not as bad as the perfectly good Suarez goal in stoppage time for Liverpool v Everton disallowed by the linesman! We were robbed!

     That definitely sucked. Referees have it in for Suarez after his dive.

       Suarez is a footballing low life. Got done for biting another player when he was at Ajax.

       My heart sinks whenever Clattenberg refs a City game. Last season, away to Chelsea and 1-0 up and all over them, he denied us a nailed on pen when Silva was tripped in the box, and then ignored two studs up high tackles by Ramires, either of which should have garnered a straight red (agreed by all pundits). Had he reffed properly, we’d have been 2-0 up after 20 minutes with Chelsea down to 10. Instead, we lost 2-1.

       My first memory of the man was when we were in the old third div., when he booked Kevin Horlock for “aggressive walking towards the referee”. Yup. A rule so rarely exercised that I have been unable to find it.

       Hopeless ref.

   Two huge matches and the refs decided them both. I thought I was watching the Premier League, not MLS!

   Suarez shouldn`t have been on the pitch anyway, after his foul on Distin.

     Very probably true. It was cynical.
