I can't remember a referee, either current or former critisising another ref's decision, but Alan wiley's justification of the penalty for Ashley Young's obvious swan dive is simply embarrasing. I am a totally neutral football fan so have no axe to grind. Ashley Young clearly hung out a leg and then played best man falls (only 7/10). Refereeing standards in professional football are
attrocious, especially considering the financial implications of a duff desision. -

hey guys I am new to the fantasy thing so I don't know much yet but.. last week I had damba Ba for week 34 and this week I changed to Tevaz. since BA did not play last week he owes me a game but the fact that I changed him this week will I still get my game out of him?
thanks. -

I have to say that, as a referee myself, Mr Wiley could not have got it more wrong. This was not a penalty. The defender made no attempt to impede the progress of Ashley Young. The sooner people like this are given RED cards for blatant cheating the better. Managers will soon take steps to eradicate the behaviour if they lose the services of the perpetrator.

There are plenty of more cynical incidents in the box that deserve penalties. But this was not one of them.
I am not sure at what point the refs, FA and players start to realise that they are losing credability with fans. We all want to see skills with the ball not diving. In fact over exgerated diving that on the local path would get a laugh and a lot of ribbing (p*** take).
When does Ashley Young and others start to feel ridiculed, -
If Alan Wiley as a former referee thinks the Ashley Young incident was a penalty because t...
If Alan Wiley as a former referee thinks the Ashley Young incident was a penalty because there was 'enough contact' that confirms that he is one ex-ref who simply doesn't understand the rules of the game. Football is a contact sport. Under Law 12 a foul is where a player Kicks, Trips, Jumps at, Charges, Strikes, Pushes or Tackles, in a manner that is careless, reckless or uses excessive force. It is also an offence to hold or spit at an opponent, or to handle the ball. Nothing in Rule 12 says that 'contact' is a foul unless it is careless, reckless or excessively forcible. The defender's contact was none of those, and it appeared that the contact was actually by Young on the defender, not the other way around.
If that is the best that Alan Wiley can do when he has the benefit of a video to watch, you have to wonder what happened when he was actually in charge of matches. Whistle Blower should sack him and get someone whi is properly capable. -

Can someone tell me? The guy is never gonna say the referee was wrong even when it's so blatant that he was. He always sticks up for the other referees.

So... with a the headline of "...What did Hughes say that was so funny?" I would have expected to find the answer somewhere? Why does this site constantly waste bandwidth and everyone's time with these inane articles?

I agree with Commentator. He always supports the referee's decision no matter how bad the decision was and he's done it again in the most recent whisteblower.
It's pointless. -

i Believe HR is an average manger.he will be a thorough disappointment as England manager,his attitude to defeat is so poor.his choice of players like Sandro and Livermore is so annoying.same thing with Saha over Pavlyuchenko.does tottenham have a scouting system?take lessons from Arsene Wenger if money is his excuse.
Tactically,HR is made me mad.in the match against man united.he was stupefied in to inaction at half time.imagine if that was England in euro 2012?bringing in Defoe at 82mins?playing an aimless player like Scot Parker regularly?
It took watching suave Madrid over espanyol to calm me down.
Can Devid Levy get Mou?
please..please...move away from ppl who choose dead wood..Gallas..Ledley King..they belong with scoy parker and Pienar in west or Everton.mod range or low rung clubs.get talent..not necessarily expensive. -

Hope not, Keane is a useless manager.Also there is too many Irish players at Wolves and he will just walk out on them like he does at every other club he has managed if things don't go his way.
