This is all speculation. We really don't know what was in the mindset of the referee. Here we go AGAIN!!!!

Delaney virtually throttled Koscielny and that was missed (thank Christ) thing is I don't know how you can miss that type of foul it's so obvious.

Existence is essentially speculation on a simulation of an uncertain contrast based on an external reality, which we experience through a self revelatory bias. Memory and perception of our own experiences may even be less reliable, than our perception and memory of others actions. We only believe we know our own 'minds', the closer you look into it, the less reliable that belief becomes.

We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football. |

I have consistently stated that referees DO make mistakes in the "Heat of battle", having to make split-second decisions in a very fast moving game.So NO, referees are not infallible. Anyway, I'm not going to add any more to this 'Thread' as I can see a WILLO thread emerging and they really don't do HOL any favours at all.

You have been warned because Persistently winding up another HOL member. Are you taking the mick??? I've stuck to the topic. Willo winds up 90% of this site persistently, in every topic, and I get a yellow.

The Mods must be stupid if they can't see what Willo is up to. His false persona of this loveable old chap playing by the Queensbury Rules is a joke. He is a total WUM. Don't respond to him - it starves his ego of oxygen.

Referee made two questionable decisions, one which benefitted West Ham, one that benefitted Leicester. Most of us would be happy with that. The issue Leicester fans have is with Vardy being sent off. It was an excellent decision. Vardy engineered the foul to get a penalty and a certain red card advantage, then went down theatrically, and rightly got booked. Then abused the referee. The person Leicester fans should be angry with isn't the referee, its Vardy. He was on a yellow, and dived, and could face further sanction for then having a hissy fit at the referee. Both of Vardy's cards were yellow card offences. The second yellow, the referee either gives a penalty and red card, or a second yellow for simulation. There isn't really an alternative. West Ham, might well feel aggrieved at the penalty, but then they were utterly robbed against Arsenal the week before, and no one seemed to care. I thought it was soft, but f**k it, they happen - And Leicester probably should have had a penalty five to ten minutes before hand. The problem the referee created for himself, was letting far too much go early in the game. The first one wasn't even a free kick, he didn't touch him. The player fell over his prone body after the ball had gone - never a yellow. That said, second one was spot on, and he deserved to go. Might make the run in a bit more exciting - particularly if they extend the ban for his reaction

Apparently if you reply after he says this is turning into a WILLO thread you're carded "for Persistently winding up another HOL member." Several people on this site that also use the BBS seems to think he's a well known troll. I don't use it but I can't disagree with their opinions. The right of reply should be allowed, especially when someone is talking nonsense. I wouldn't mind if I had actually abused him or been trying to wind him up but he wound me up with his blind adoration of the referee.
