Is this the same vicious assault that the disciplinary comittee decided no charge for?

That's the one.

TVOC tells me that the press are the closest thing to experts after head coaches, so I guess he agrees that we wuz robbed

The refs are the only experts.

The press may be the closest thing to head coaches, but unfortunately they are still hundreds of miles away. You only have to listen to them to know that.

I agree, as I often prove on here.

Brilliant article if only to see the over the top reaction from shot-from-the-hip Leeds fans unable to see through an artcile designed to provoke controversy on the basis that the game is little more than chip paper in Liverpool.

As with everything there has to be exceptions that prove the rule and that goes for coaches, players and referees also.



It's not ther sort of proof the referees are ideally looking for though.

I note that Brent Webb has gone from a warning letter to a formal caution - so what can he expect the next time he drops with the knees defending the tryline?

A severe wagging of the finger perhaps.

One of those horrible stares teachers used to do at primary school. He'd soon learn his lesson

He should learn to go in feet first as opposed to with his knees. The authorities seem to see that as ok.

I can't believe anyone is still bleating about this, it's as clear a matter of factual history as you can get, Lee Smith was onside, the try was given. All the gnashing of teeth and wailing in the world isn't going to change the fact that Saints seem completely incapable of beating Leeds in the GF.

Never mind lads, there's always next year...



Actually on second thoughts, maybe Saints need a Russian Linesman as well as a registered Saints fan as the Referee to beat us, I'm off to the bookies to pop a tenner on it being a four-peat.

You should bet against your own team. When the game was great that was the sort of thing that happened.
