    Don't tell me......

    ...... that the 'big' clubs don't get the decisions.We saw it again today. How could the referee's assistant not see that Azpilecueta was offside when he scored and how could the referee not give Rudiga (not sure if the spelling is correct) a red card when he obviously pulled the Cardiff player down when he was through on goal? I'm no fan of Warnock but those two decisions could easily put Cardiff down. Add to this the shirt tugging in the area which enhances my opinion that the standard of refereeing is poor and if not poor, then it is biased. While not a lover of VAR, at least it will show up the incompetence of referees and their assistants.

    Unfortunately I don’t have any sympathy for Colin.

    Totally agree with that. Result should be changed to a draw but there's no chance of that

    Understand you Prando, Colin not a nice bloke but Cardiff are not too bad a club and don't need that sort of bias.

    Colin was a tad angry today, but why do the tv people apologise for Colins swearing...in that situation turn the f'kin mikes off FFS.

    If it’s unfortunate that you don’t have sympathy for Colin, then surely you should have sympathy for him? Is my logic flawed?

    I’m no fan of Colin but you have to feel for anyone that loses like that. The officiating was disgraceful.
