Apparently Norwich had a blatant Pen turned down just before Defoe's equaliser.
'Corruption/Conspiracy' or 'just one of those things'??

It will carry on feeding this 'big clubs get all the decisions' fire.

The truth of the matter is, no one gives a flying £#%&! if Wigan have a pen turned down against West Brom. Nothing to do with big teams influencing refs, people just notice it when they're involved.

Blackburn had a screamingly obvious penalty not given at Bolton last week. That's two teams fighting relegation in a local derby. I think I heard it mentioned once on the radio.

Be like spitting on Muamba's grave to make an issue of that.

It's utterly laughable. There are shit decisions every week, at every ground, in every league. It just makes a good story, or provides a good subject to moan about, when the decision is in favour of a 'big' team.

South coast derby on saturday, Southampton scored a goal that was disallowed for offside (replays show that it probably was offside). Southampton players flew at the officials, screaming at them, and they changed their mind and gave the goal (a goal that would have been a 89th minute winner if portsmouth hadn't scored in injury time).

Heard much about that? Nope.

Talking of Southampton, Lambert's got another 2 today against Palace, which gets him up to 30 for the season.

26 in 34 in the league.

1-2 Norwich

Haha, gotta say i'm enjoying Spurs demise and i'd even laugh if Chelsea ended up in 4th over them. They've just been so overhyped all season. 'Spurs play the best football in the premiership' just cos they beat a bunch of shit teams on a run.

Luka to Yernited hopefully.

Shocking time they've had since Harry mentally accepted the England job

Yeah, we should sign Balotelli instead.

I was joking, the love in for Modric, chief underachiever for the perennial underachievers is odd.

not a bad goal that from Hatem Ben Arfa

He can't be expected to carry a team, he isn't the one who sticks himself on the left wing. Blame Harry for that. Spurs are a bit overrated anyway, the fact that they were playing good stuff and in 3rd said a lot about one incredible midfielder can lift a team.

They'll struggle for 5th place again if he's sold. He's the best central midfielder in this league.

You were joking about Balo? Come on, you've been dickriding him for ages pal. The guy is a fraud. I called it when they signed him, an inferior player to Welbz for £25m - and a complete #@&%! of a guy. How many training ground fights has he been in? Near enough their whole squad hate him

If the scores stay the same and Chelsea win tonight, them, Newcastle and Spurs will all be level on 59 pts in the race for 4th. Chelsea would go ahead on GD. Shows how big that 93rd minute winner from Mata was.

As it stands Chelsea drop down to sixth and will stay there if they draw or lose away at Fulham. They struggle at Craven Cottage too

Superb player. Cissé's scored again too.

Norwich will draw level with Liverpool if things stay as they are

Everton 3 up with Jelavic not even involved

He's obviously been giving striking lessons to the rest of the squad in his spare time.

Edit: Everton 4 up now, they're ripe for beating Liverpool on Saturday.
