    Something must be done about this problem. Things certainly do NOT even themselves out.

    I've studied in detail every match we've played this season and so far every single decision that has gone against us has been wrong except for one hand ball Spiderman made in the opening match against Citeh and one offside against Gaston in the away Manure match.

    On the other hand, every single decision in our favour - without exception - has been correct.

    The stats speak for themselves. Only two of the 387 decisions against us were correct - so the opposition were awarded 385 unjustified decisions.

    How can the authorities allow this scandal to stand - 99.48% incorrect decisions against us?

    Either I'm biased or the standard of referees is complete sh!te or there's match fixing going on on a grand scale. Having twice been awarded the gold medal for Impartiatilty and Fair Judgement from the University of Guanzou Psychology Dept, you can take it that one of the latter two is the case.
    Who needs a famcy degree from the Uniceristy of Guanzou. My kids could have told you thattdecisions which go against you.

    They have taken it a step further in putting an action plan together. When decisions go for you, keep quite and carry on. When they go against, whine, shout, and try and get your own way by making a scene.

Pochettino apologises for Clattenburg confrontation

Mauricio Pochettino Mauricio Pochettino

Mauricio Pochettino has apologised for storming onto the pitch to remonstrate with referee Mark Clattenburg after his side were held to a goalless draw at Norwich.

Saints played superbly well in the snow and rain at Carrow Road and should have had the game won before Clattenburg awarded Norwich an injury time penalty for a foul by Luke Shaw on Grant Holt.

Saints disagreed with the decision and saw what they perceived to be justice done as Boruc dived to his right to make the save and preserve the point.

After the game Pochettino came onto the pitch to confront Clattenburg but afterwards was repentant.

He said: “I do know that (you shouldn’t go on the pitch) and I apologise.

“Sometimes you can lose control a little but us managers have to control ourselves.

“Sometimes I feel as if I am playing the game as well on the sidelines.”

He added: “I am happy overall with the team’s performance because we regained that fighting spirit that perhaps we lost a little bit against QPR.

“I think my team played better than last week and in the 90th minute before that penalty was given we deserved to be leading the game.

“So my anger was double fold that it shouldn’t have been a penalty and that we should have been up in the game by that time.”
