Football can be very unfair, referees doubly so. Mike Halsey and his assistants got two massive decisions wrong in Newcastle’s favour. Halsey was the only one in the entire stadium who thought Taylor’s foul on O’Hara a yard inside the box deserved a free kick not a penalty. To pretend the foul could have been [...]

Wolves 1-2 Newcastle: Life can be very unfair, especially to those who give the ball away all the time
Sunday, October 2nd, 2011Gary Neville proves himself even more of a twit than even I had previously thought
Monday, November 16th, 2009I talked a couple of weeks ago of the decision to relegate apparently poorly performing referee Mike Jones from the Premiership to a Championship match up instead. Gary Neville, it seems would support this decision wholeheartedly. If I may quote from his recent interview with The Times: “The big matches should be refereed by the [...]

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009Today Wolfie is mainly referring to himself in the third person. He is also slightly amused that referee Mike Jones is adjudged not good enough for the Premier League after failing to disallow Sunderland’s comedy winner against Liverpool, which rebounded into the net off a beach ball thrown on the pitch by a Liverpool fan.

Darn: Everton 1-1 Wolves
Saturday, October 17th, 2009How disappointing it is to have been right. (about the result, at least, if nothing else).

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009I’m going to stop, after today, harking back to the bad only days of 2003-04, but this five goals conceeded statistic appears, at first glance, to be frighteningly familiar. Pleasingly and frustratingly, however, scratch the surface and this seems to be another of those hard luck stories for Wolves. Much endeavour and desire , a [...]
