Suffering succotash Styles

Feb 07, 2009 23:44

Just watched the game. Pah!  We're not lucky with penalties. especially if your name is Steed Malbranque. Last week he was fouled in the box and Howard Webb deemed he had fouled Taylor and gave a penalty. This week he is heading the ball into the net from 3 yards out and Danny Pugh armed it off the line. Not the best of games but how Styles missed the handball will remain a mystery along with the fate of the Mary Celeste and what people saw in George W Bush as a leader of the Western World. Blatant is not the word. Anyway, they held their nerve and scored 2 against 10 men. Styles correctly sent Etherington off, but then booked Danny Collins and gave Stoke a free kick. He must have felt sorry for them. The man is at least incompetent.

The first goal was courtesy of our ex-goalie Thomas Sorensen. Kenwyne was too embarrassed to celebrate. Thanks Tommy.
Our second came in a blinding snowstorm from David Healy in the 94th minute. It's about time we scored a late winner again. Sbragia was diplomatic about the referee; Tony Pulis felt hard done by. Yes the fortunes of war.

Still 3 points though. Heh heh. Only blight was Newcastle won too. Bah!

haway the lads
