"Hopefully we´ll get a referee decision going our way for a change". Now THAT`s interesting to me at least, I wanna know more about what decisions he´s thinking about...

Well Clattenburg got absolute dogs abuse for giving us nothing throughout the Norwich game; huge ironic cheers when he finally did. I think NA also complained about the Clyne tackle/foul that led to Snodgrass's goal, but replays showed that was fine (as was Lambert's goal despite Hughton whining it was handball).

Norwich game springs to mind... being in the ground and seeing Lambert have his shirt pulled from his neck when he was trying to go on runs/ being jumped on and knocked over and being adjudged to have fouled his man was hard to take.

Wes Tender Posted 6 December, 2012 Share Posted 6 December, 2012 Well Clattenburg got absolute dogs abuse for giving us nothing throughout the Norwich game; huge ironic cheers when he finally did. I think NA also complained about the Clyne tackle/foul that led to Snodgrass's goal, but replays showed that was fine (as was Lambert's goal despite Hughton whining it was handball). The replay that I watched showed that Clyne had got the ball first. Discussion on here about how the laws regarding tackles should be interpreted determined that a free kick might be awarded if there was clumsiness, undue force, etc, but Adkins didn't think that there was anything wrong with it and neither did I. And then watching Clattenburg in his next match, the Arsenal - Swansea game, there was as near as possible an identical tackle in that match, which Clattenburg let go without so much as a wagging finger. What would be nice, would be some consistency. The only thing consistent about refereeing at St Mary's this season, is how consistently poor it is.

Just going by the MOTD commentary; all of them referred to Adkins' comments but that he had nothing to complain about. I thought it was a foul, interpretation is difficult these days, getting the ball first doesn't necessarily mean it isnt a foul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a foul, interpretation is difficult these days, getting the ball first doesn't necessarily mean it isnt a foul. Maybe. When there are 5 or 6 possible scenarios as to the factors that might affect the decision, then it is obviously open to interpretation, probably to give the referees a get out clause when their decisions are questioned. But the question is, if it occurred in the penalty area, would a penalty have been awarded? Often not, therefore raising these consistency issues again.

Don't get me wrong he has made mistakes, but who hasn't? be interested to know who has conceded the most/least of the keepers per game, if someone can be bothered to work it out and Who's been in goal when we have gained points etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've scored all our league points when Gazza has been in goal. And his goals against ratio is comfortably the best of the three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong he has made mistakes, but who hasn't? be interested to know who has conceded the most/least of the keepers per game, if someone can be bothered to work it out and Who's been in goal when we have gained points etc. I'd play Boruc, no doubt about it fit or unfit he probably won't make schoolboy errors that cost games. The Swansea and Norwich draws weren't a result of bad keeping, they were a results of crass basic errors that no professional keeper should make. A tyro league keeper would have kept Snodgrass's effort out as likely as not. Those points are going to cost us at the end of the day.

I don't think you could say that Boruc is, by talent, a third choice keeper. Whether its his fitness or whatever that's keeping out its a bit strange; that's he so bad to have played 2 games then been binned out entirely is, well, odd.

You're probably right, I'm not familiar with him but his career would suggest he ought to be competent enough to wear the No1 jersey. I'm sure Merson's comments were a little tongue-in-cheek but the point was clear enough that they didn't have an outstanding goalkeeper, just 3 average Joe's.

Dr Who? Posted 9 December, 2012 Share Posted 9 December, 2012 Bit off topic, but I am not sure why KD gets so much stick on here. For me he is Saints number 1, a great servant to the club, and an all round top bloke. He has premier league experience and has not done to much wrong, with what was a terrible defence leaving him wide open for shooting practice at. Glad to see him back. As for decisions from the referee, well we have not had to many our way...... When this evens up over the season I look forward to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
