Today's football.

Anyone else feel awkward watching this Sunderland v Cardiff game? Its like two groups of "special" children have met up in a park for a kickabout and I'm sat there watching it, not knowing where to put my face.

 

[bainesontoast]

Colback is looking good. I know he's only playing Cardiff but still.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

I thought that wickham's hold up play against us was worryingly good. Better first touch than Lukaku.

Have a suspicion that the Ref will do the RS a favour again today.

Jose will wanna choke the life out of it but the ref won't be having it.

Suspect an early red card and a peno.

 

[toffee matt]

Cardiff down to 10

 

[bainesontoast]

Well, that is an interesting decision. If Wickham decided to go on...

 

[Ring master]

probably the right decision,but how long did he let play go on for

 

[Del]

Hahaha soft

 

[rascal]

Yes! Phil Dowd, that is an excellent decision. Well played sir. Wish referee's would do that more often, would help to discourage diving.

 

[SunKing]

It was good reffing other than that the red card offence was outside the box, should have been a free kick.

 

[kenada_blue]

Eh? Get the red, don't get the peno though.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Slightly weird 'advantage' there by Dowd. How long do you allow the advantage? Was he basically saying if you don't score I'll give you a penalty? That isn't how it is supposed to work.

 

[bluelife]

Cardiff down

 

[kenada_blue]

Yes! Phil Dowd, that is an excellent decision. Well played sir. Wish referee's would do that more often, would help to discourage diving.

He wouldn't do that at Anfield or Stamford Bridge...

 

[Big Fat Sam]

yep,each win for the bottom few is slowly bringing villa into trouble

Nah they're safe imo, miles ahead on goal difference and that'll do them
