Big clubs get a different Rule book.

[Chelives]

Unfortunatly I think this is going to sound totally bias, but its not meant to be.

As most probably saw, Fulham-WBA was a highly charged match. I don't want to comment on the punch up because that was wrong. However, put your mind back to last Saturday. Fulham are awarded a penalty. 5/6 Arsenal players sorround Referee Mark Haysley, who consults his linesman. [i}''But the players' reactions from put a little bit of doubt in my mind. I thought 'Have I got this decision correct'?''[/I] (His own words!)

A week later an penalty awarded against Fulham, this time the Fulham players sorround the referee. The Action??.....

Dean is set to report the club to The FA after he was surrounded by a number of players when he awarded West Brom a penalty in their 1-1 draw at the weekend.

The referee has accused the players of trying to harass him and he will include the incident in his match report.

"When I gave the penalty about six Fulham players surrounded me and I will be reporting that to The FA," said Dean.

Its true, big clubs do get a different rule book. Man City player gets off scot-free for not pissing in a cup, whilst a Man Utd player gets an 8 month ban. I'm not saying Rio Ferdinand(He may be World Class, but he's an embarrasment to the club) should not of been banned, because he was lucky it wasn't longer, but Christian Negouai should've atleast been given the same punishment.

Solution: Ban Arsenal and Man Utd.

Better solution: Ban Dragan from SG.

It's normal that rules don't always apply to big clubs.
It's just the way it is.

I don't care what anyone says they can f-uck off, it was a penalty.and as for the sendings off against WBA, don't get me started on those . We gave them a good rollicking

p.s Fulham will be facing FA action over the WBA incident

you can't say that based only on two things that happened, with two different refs.

 

[Glorious]

it is a pain but the refs just have to not be swayed by the crowd.

When a smaller club loses 1-0, why is it always a case of "we should have had two penalties"?

 

[adj137]

we lost 3-1 for a start.
im saying that on any other day against any other team that penalty would have been given, and if you have seen collins johns goal someone please explain how that can be disallowed.

Its not.


The reason I got so pissed off with the last two Fulham games is because the situations were identical. Fine different refs, but at the end of the day, exactly the same thing happened. Both dubious penalties, both given. The Champions of England complain, ''oh sorry lads, let me just have a words with my linesman, i'll see what i can do'' Little old Fulham do it ''F*ck off, Im booking you, and Im reporting you to the FA, and they'll fine you big time. na na na-na na''

Obviously that is exagurate, and for the record I believe Cole's penalty wasnt and Volz's was. But the point is, Fulham have been heavily fined for something which big clubs get away with every single game.
