First, many thanks for all your hard work this year. It is appreciated.
Second, is there anyone who can understand their final comment ?
I think I have finally worked it out on the third reading. I believe they are complaining that the Stoke fans clapped Cannon, applauded their red-carded player off the pitch, and then cheered when their own striker was substituted.
 



No mention of that obvious push on Seriki that led to their goal then? That was a shocking decision from the ref.
Correct.
See also the Wrexham goal where McCallum was pushed in the back.
Why can't refs see these? You can't change direction like that without being pushed. Newton's first (or is it second) law of motion.
You don't need to see the hand in the back to give it. The ref should look at the effect of the push not the cause. If a hand on the back doesn't cause any odd movement then he shouldn't give a foul either. There's too many of those too.

Yes, not easy to unravel, but you’re right. It was ironic cheers for Mubama when he went off earlier. The guy has a point, even though Mubama was rubbish, it’s a bit rich applauding the opposition’s winning goal scorer and jeering your own player.

Having said that, they are all clayheads, so any kind of logical thought would be a big ask.
 
Roygbiv do you have a complaints department? The adverts have gone from women’s underwear to “trusted care homes”.

😭
Always a dangerous topic this one that has come up before. The ads are driven by the search history from your IP address rather than anything Roy is doing at his end.

One explanation for your changes could be, a bit of pre christmas optimism as you search for what you'd like to buy the missis rather that what she wants, to a new trend, driven by your adult kids visiting over Christmas and starting the inevitable planning process for your future.

Aaaahhh, the Ann Summers website.
Modern day Grattans catalogue surfing ;)
 



Cheers Panchero!
 
The ref was letting all sorts go for both sides, they just didn't twig so kept throwing themselves to the floor.
The challenge on Seriki was very agricultural, and looked a nailed-on foul, but the ref must have got shit socks for Christmas so was fed up and didn't have the patience for footballers falling over at the slightest nudge.

I am glad he gave that red. Too many defenders get away with dragging attackers to the floor on the halfway line, only getting a booking because it's so far back and their defensive partner, who averages a 30-second 100 meters, could have possibly got back to cover. It was a professional foul with no intention to play the ball, he pulled him back: off you go.
Always gets me this; after a ref waves on the first 4 or 5 heavy tackles, it's clear they won't give any easy fouls, but the players just carry on falling over after a push - guys, the ref isn't going to blow for that in this game.
 
Ive enjoyed the SamCam stuff on both stoke games . The lad puts some work into it , seams pretty knowledgeable and gives a fair view . Puts a few tv pundits to shame .

Nice work young un 👏
Right at the end, there’s a bit of close up footage of the Stokie Dad and his young lad who were giving it large to the entire away end after the final whistle 🙂
