The ref got it wrong, it was clearly a foul and a penalty. No idea why Clattemburg thinks otherwise. The Arse 3rd goal looked fine to me.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |

This is my last comment on this thread as I have no desire for it to evolve into one of those dastardly Willo threads. And there it is he couldn't resist it.

Their third should have stood. Too many things happened simultaneously to say their player alone committed a foul. For our penalty, I think the fact Wilf got booked was helpful. Was there contact? Clearly. It had to be given or a really unjust yellow would have stood. Clattenburg shouldn't be allowed a platform. How quick was Atkinson to book Wilf? Even if the contact did not warrant a penalty (I think it did) it could not be considered a dive. Ref going by player's reputation not by on-field action

I’m sorry but that “Willo thread” stuff is cobblers. You are allowed to debate a different view. However I am firmly of the opinion that his experience would be better used commenting on the flaws of VAR in general, rather than, once again commenting on a specific decision, pointing to a specific player - who he has, in the past, made poor decisions against and especially in a weekend full of them. He sets himself up. Sets himself up for what... more publicity? He cannot be serious about that decision and therefore is surely only trying to draw attention. Doesn't deserve it, was only ever interested in self promotion as a referee, which is the worst possible type of person to have in that role, and apparently still is now. On a separate note, I am still bemused as to why they ruled out Arsenal's third which quite frankly has made my week now .
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

With the greatest respect, it must have been bleedin' obvious you would stir up a hornet's nest when you could have kept quiet just once about Clutters.

The decision to rule out Arsenal’s third goal was an absolute shocker and the fact that the decision was left in the hands of someone with extremely limited experience needs to be looked at. I wonder what the referee thoughts were about having his decision overruled? Fuming I would imagine.

Clattenburg has to justify his fee from writing an article. He is no stranger to controversy and likes the limelight. His views are pretty much an irrelevance, nothing to do with the referee set up, after he chased the oil money. He cuts a quiet pathetic character, now his whistle has been taken away.

'Mark' was as you say Willo one of the World's greatest referees and it is a crying shame that he decided to leave the PL for financial pastures new. I will always remember both Palace and West Ham fans singing in unison 'It's all about you...It's all about you...Mark Clattenburgh it's all about you' which quite aptly sums him up.

I detested Clattenburg as a referee. It seems to me that he was (and is) an attention seeking narcissist. Have you ever heard him speak? Intellect and articulacy are not his strong suits. He is yesterdays man and probably hoping for the salvation of "Strictly" or "I'm a celebrity". His only hope of attention now is to be controversial. Why else mention that the VAR official was an Australian? I guess any attention is better than no attention.

BTW, it was Atkinson who awarded us the penalty (Wilf again) in that glorious playoff final against Watford all those (wonderful) years ago.

Dermot Gallagher disagrees with Clattenburger over the penalty call [Link] I don't really see any debate in that decision as in the replay Chambers clearly sticks his foot out after the ball has gone past impeding Wilf's path and tripping him. He did say Arsenal's goal probably should have stood though, which I think most of us probably (albeit reluctantly) agree with.
