Oh FFS are we still going on about that

The Shop had already fluked one off his face what more do you want

Oh and by the way I didn't know Joyce was a plumber



We should go on about it because it was the worst, most incompetent decision I've seen in any game of football ever. It was disgraceful. Ball heading for the net, delivberate handball to prevent a goal is always a straight red.

Why?
All your points stand but what's the point?
You obviously have an issue with moving forward,on the day a particulier poor decision but to be honest its way in the past.
Also over dramatic with it been the "worst, most incompetent decision I've seen in any game of football ever"-most other fans of other clubs will have a similar story to tell.

The fact that we have since moved on does not change the fact that a clear red card offence was committed, and that the ref later admitted that he did not want to 'ruin the spectacle of the game'.

Totally unacceptable, and an act of cowardice. That guy should never have officiated at another game. He was clearly not fit for purpose. The referee is there to administer the rules of the game,no matter how inconvenient.

Worse than Simeon Jackson not even getting a telling off for hospitalising a player with 3 or 4 serious injuries?

To a degree I think referees can be forgiven for not seeing or fully appreciating the seriousness of an offence in the heat of a fast-moving game. Jackson’s assault on Hessenthaler is a good example of this, as was Dave Challinor’s yellow card for his career ending challenge on Martin Pringle.

What I always found so galling about that Ross Joyce decision was that he clearly saw and understood the offence but consciously chose not to punish it as per the rules. I can move on because of what followed a year later, but objectively speaking it was a shocking piece of referreeing that should’ve been looked into by the authorities.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

Serious question, where does the nickname "The Shop" come from?



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Serious answer, from a well known department store I think but the name escapes me.
