Then that's where the media should sort themselves out and have the rules in front

of them, so they can state why a decision is made

Referee bashing is the easiest scapegoat, but a lot of the time when you go through decisions according to the rules, you'll find the referee isn't in a position to "do the right thing for the game"

I would have thought after the Frisk stuff, a lot would be done to stop this vulturing towards an offical as a reason to losing a football match

If you aren't good enough to win a game, you don't deserve the trophy, it's as simple as that. Barca will have been gutted with 15 mins to go that they didn't have a goal instead of a red card, but they had the belief to keep going and try and win the game. Also playing with ten men isn't the hardship it's made out to be, you just revert from 4 4 2 to 4 4 1 and the striker has to work twice as hard.

Arsenal were in a prime position to win last night and in my own words, bottled it!
