Was complete, utter and total s***e today. Vivid imagination, selective blindness and top-six bias all rampant in the second half.

Soerloth scored a nailed-on legit goal and somehow he manages to "see" a foul by one of our attackers in the box just beforehand. Nobody else sees a damn thing and the pundits and commentators are baffled. WTF had he blown up for? The only possible infringement was Cahill pulling (I think) Tomkins to the ground, so even if Soerloth missed it was still a pen. But this arsehole gives Chelsea a free f***ing kick for absolutely nothing.

Now, if there's a foul or an offside or something and the officials don't see it, I can kind of understand, because they can't see anything. But guessing, assuming, imaginging or as in this case just plain making stuff up to give a decision that isn't there in the first place is bang on unacceptable. And it happens plenty.

Then at the end Chelsea players start shoving Tomkins about and trying to pick fights, and in the end one of them stops up to the linesman and not only tells him what's what but actually strikes his flag out of his hand in his anger. And he does f*** all about it. Yet last time he reffed us he booked Wilf just for speaking to him.

He's f***ing toilet and he should be struck off.

Ref's F*****g us over seems to be a pastime. None more blatant than that b****** Clattenbung, who suddenly buggered of abroad. Talk about Man U playing with 12. And we till have to put up with crazy decisions.
I'm afraid players will continue to fall over for nothing all the time ref's will blow up for it. Nothing wrong with goal against Chelsea. Just the poor choice of players by Hodgson. I love the look of Wan Bassaka. He won't stay long. Championship here we come.

Willo defending the indefensible, as usual.

From where I was sitting the whistle was blown before the goal.
I saw a high foot.
On MOTD Jairo was the culprit and had his hands in the air appealing his innocence.
I believe the ref saw it as dangerous play.(high foot).
Very unlucky.
Play like we did in the second half and we will be fine.

Software on my PC precludes me from witnessing the incident.

At the end of the day it was in the 92nd minute and those who believe that the incident warranted a yellow which of course would have meant a sending-off might consider that Chelsea going down to 10 men wouldn't have made any difference to the result.

Most certainly the incident will be reviewed and discussed in the post-match 'Forensic' assessment of the referee's performance.
