I suppose Arsenal not ever really being in the title race

takes the pressure of an official and they end up doing their job probably

As soon as it's pressure right at the top end where it matters, they buckle under it

There's only Peter Walton I have any respect for, even then last season he was right in from Hleb and saw him slap that player in the face, and just ran on because he didn't want to deal with it

Fair enough the fa did, but it just smacked of inconsistency again of someone I even like as an official to cave in
