As far as I can remember there were 4 occasions....

You could call it petty, you could call it taking advantage of the refs ineptitude.

One was Wes Hoolahan for which he got booked. Arguably it should have been our free kick, but Wes was undeniably petty.

Twice, we knocked a ball out of the hand of someone taking a throw in - on both these occasions the ref AGREED with us and said the throw in should be taken further back. Why he didn't do that in the first place i don't know.

Another time, Morison kicked the ball 10 yards back just as an Arsenal player was about to take a free kick. Again, the ref agreed.

There was plenty of pettiness on both sides, Chesney, Song, Benayoun (could have been off)
