    Suffice to say pretty fed up of the decisions at the moment. Together with the ruling against our owner things are turning very sinister. That foul resulted in a penalty and a red card. We won the game 1-0 but we've been on the end of four absolutley awful penalty decisions in the last 2...

    We should have had a trio of penalties in the 2nd half, I don't say this very often because I usually lay the blame at the my own team but the ref cost us dear yesterday. I'm surprised he managed to get out of the ground, it was truly a disgraceful performance that in my opinion requires...

    They had a blatant one turned down at Old Trafford as well. Add to that Wayne Rooney's wrestling of Harry Kane the previous week together with all the recent shockers they've had it must add up to several extra points now. It's a scary situation. --- old post above --- --- new post below ---...

    It's depressing at the moment, no creativity at all. Pride Park is not a happy ground for us even when we are playing well so I wasn't expecting much on Tuesday night. On the plus side, the stewards were very friendly bringing my dad a hot drink in the freezing conditions. :)

    Our slide towards relegation continues. Sadly yet another pivotal decision in Man Utd game with a clear, obvious penalty not given to Stoke City for a Smalling hand ball. The ref was stood 2 yards from it. It's now a very concerning situation.

    Eidur Gudjohnsen is there as well. I remember a time when Mike Whitlow and Gudni Bergson (both in their late 30's) were playing in their defence in the Premier League. Certainly can never accuse Bolton of being ageist. Last I heard Heskey was playing in Australia before this move

    Trivia:Electrified stations which are only served by Diesel Trains

    There must be a couple of south of Wakefield? Sandal and Agbrigg maybe?

    Why aren't all lines electrified?

    To be fair, there is a huge emphasis being put on 'spend to save' or 'invest to save' schemes in many industries at the moment. Hopefully the rail network will figure highly in that way of thinking. Electric to Hull would be excellent as we've covered many times on here.

    Basically the FA admitting that the ref made a glaring error. It's a shame they can't award Stoke a penalty for free in their next game against Man Utd, or give Liverpool a 1 goal head start in their next game against them to make up for the blatently offside Mata goal.

    I was on my way to Notts Forest at the time. The decision however was very very poor, no surprise though, it's happening way to often. Decisions in our game were key as well, we was quite rightly awarded our first penalty of the season when Byram was fouled. Billy Sharp put it away...

    More bad news then! We have had a transfer embargo imposed on us after failing another football league test. Still, Nottingham Forest away at the weekend and that's always a good trip. I suspect they will help us on our way to the bottom three

    Yesterday was two very poor teams in a poor game. We can have no complaints, McCormack and Rodallega took their chance and our strikers didn't. We are in a relagation battle no doubt. we are very very poor --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Best keeper in the league for me De Gea

    All deserved, Fellaini could easily be off. Booked then took Sterling out off the ball..To be fair to Fellani performance wise he's been outstanding recently..Rooneys goal was a class move as well The sad fact is that the only decision that was actually wrong has meant man utd get a free goal...

    Oh dear. That is quite honestly appalling. Mata miles offside, miles offside. Goal given. It's every week, seriously confused about this So odd how all these awful decisions in Man Utd games favour Man utd.....game over as a contest. Yet again 3 points awarded by the officials Half time, very...

    The Mangala decision was awful, the dressing down he got from Demichelis spoke volumes about that. After that he played quite well but like you said, awful decision. I think the Mane decision was correct, one footed and foot pointed down rather than up. Rooney could have easily have seen red...
