I don't think I can remember seeing such a biased display from a referee as I did tonight when watching Chelsea versus Newcastle in the FA Cup Quarter Final. I saw several occasions where Chelsea players went through the back of Newcastle players only for the referee to wave play on, yet it seemed every 50/50 ball the foul was awarded to Chelsea. Then there's the pushing and shoving in the box during one of the free kicks - Chelsea players pushing Newcastle left right and centre yet the referee gave nothing, didn't even have a word. A few minutes later, a slight shove on John Terry and the Newcastle players are spoken to. Then to round it all off Robbie Elliot was dismissed because Shawn Wright-Phillips ran into him! Absolute disgrace.
So Mr Bennett, who made the oh so long journey from Kent to London, I hope you can sleep well in your bed after that performance. You shouldn't be allowed to officiate a jumble sale never mind another football game.
If this is a taste of the way things are going to be, with the fashionable clubs being afforded all the decisions, then I'm afraid football has died. I just so wish that fans up and down the country turn their backs on this game until the FA get off their committee-man gobshite arses and do something about it. It's nothing short of a farce.
And as for the BBC's commentary - Mark Lawrenson is a complete arse with his totally unfunny and frankly tedious comments.
Bollocks to the lot of them!
